damn, I sold my audigy 2 a long time ago when I got an X-Fi

I hope eventually there will be an x-fi driver, the audio on my board is garbage with OSX. I only get bad sounding 2.1 with generic drivers with no line-in or anything else, if I use taruga drivers then I get line-in but absolutely no bass at all for output.

Its very good news!!!!! still waiting and believe

X-Fi uses different chip then 10kx so, there are 99% chances that it will NOT be supported by kX drivers.
More information on X-fi is available from DJ_Stick and Eugene himself HERE --> http://www.driverheaven.net/general-discus...aster-x-fi.html

hmmm they changed the color of forum from black to blue

Look like someone deserves a donation =D

Look like someone deserves a donation =D

Yup, I was willing to donate earlier, but then "E" mentioned the date, so not willing to get charged by transfer company (WU) twice It is also good to donate if others want to, besides how many cool coders are out there? specially who can bring almost all main features of original CT drivers to OS-xxx? well, regard-less of donations, E would continue the work as usual but with some "Pizzas" it can be fun and fast

You know, I once thought to donate 5$ extra so that Russ (over there) becomes mod

Mach In Tosh, please read the first post of this thread (page 1) and check whether your model is listed or not If your card is based on Emu10K(1 or 2) then continue to read the first post if not, then it may not be suppored

Wow, you're nice to reply. Posts like the GP annoy me that they are too lazy to even read the thread. It's why I don't come by here as much as I used to, all the annoying lazy users.

[MTZeon]

Any confirmation on the release date?

[catboy]

Great news... i have Audigy 2 zs on my hackinstosh... i use in windows for games...

maybe Taruga can help..

[Signal64]

Well, if these do come out I can dust off my CT4620, CT4670, CT4760, SB0060, SB0090, and a few others I know I have around here somewhere.

[Riley Freeman]

I'm sure they'll come out. If anyone can get Creative drivers working in OS X it's these guys. They know the hardware inside-out. The only real obstacle would be CoreAudio.

Right now I have a fully-working Leopard install minus sound because I can't be bothered to enable the onboard chip (and switch the speaker cable between XP and Leo sessions) . I'll just sit in silence until these come along

[newbmac]

Ya, well they said August 14. So it is soon. WOW, if this happens this is going to be HUGE. I will switch to OSx86 full time as sound will work!

[whoistylerdurden]

Only 5 days to go until everything's working on my OSX install. The onboard audio may work, but I didn't feel like moving everything to the onboard audio.

Same, i'm going to go OSX full time now

The sound was the only thing holding me back.

[newbmac]

Well, we will see if it really is August 14. Given there isn't much in terms of updates on the date, I would be pleasantly surprised if it was really August 14.

[Riley Freeman]

It'll be worth the wait anyway. I ended up enabling onboard audio and there's no way I could use this full time. It sounds like crap. Same as it did in XP. How can they call this "High Definition" audio when my 8-year old SBLive Value blows it away.

[Oxtie]

OK, updated first post for those poor X-Fi dudes If any of you X-Fi dudes want drivers, Rant for it here > Creative Developer Open Source Feedback like others.... (some russian dudes even ranted with pron* links... lol)

EDIT:
Just to add a note, you don't need to register to play the rant ball at CTz

[U2BONO]

Waiting for Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Drivers for MacOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eugene k2]

OS X driver released - version 1.0b2

get it from here (don't forget to review 'known issues' and 'unimplemented' stuff):

http://www.driverheaven.net/mac-os-x-driver/

post your comments and bug reports to driverheaven forum please, since I cannot read both forums regularly

Lama, please update your topic:
* official site is www.kxproject.com
* E-DSP will only work if you boot OS X after Windows (with kX for Windows installed) - because E-DSP FPGA microcode needs to be loaded, and no such option exists for OS X at the moment
* DELL OEM card will never be supported
