Asus motherboards come with a dedicated sound app for the motherboard onboard soundchip, called SupremeFX. Other motherboards have similar control panels.
If we connect a single BKG2 to this sound device what settings should we use.
Specifically SupremeFX allows you to, for example:
“Amplify level”: powerful, extreme?
”Make internal and external output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously” yes, no?
“Bit depth and sample rate?
“Speaker configuration” mono, stereo?
”Send LFE signal to front speakers when stereo” yes, no?
etc.
?
Hi !
A few answers 😉
- “Amplify level”: powerful, extreme?
I've never seen this option, you should refer to the manual.
- ”Make internal and external output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously” yes, no?
When enabled that means that the front and back output will act as two fully separate "sound cards", it depends if you want to use both at the same time.
- “Bit depth and sample rate?
You can stick to default one, no need to push excessive-quality which would generate a bit more CPU load (higher sample rate = more data to be generated) for absolutely no sensitive gain.
- Speaker configuration :
Stereo will be fine, it will give you two proper separate channels, then you are free to use both or not depending of your wiring ..(Simhub feeds both channels with the same signal when configured in "mono" mode)
-”Send LFE signal to front speakers when stereo” yes, no?
Definitely no 😉 , you need to run away to any option which would try to mix channels like this one, it's the best way to have weird results.
