Yeah, you are right.

 

Although some USB cards work without the need of drivers, in my case just early today I was playing with the Audio Midi Setup and incredible I got sound out of the Digital Output of my USB Sonica Theater, also I can setup the number of speakers up to 8 with 16 bit or up to 6 with 24 bit, and up to 96 khz.

 

Of course the drivers coul add some Surround effects and other settings.

 

In fact, I did the same with my Hercules Muse Pocket LT USB, and I got more or less the same screen as yours ... but if I open ITunes or DVD Player or whatever sound application, I only get the sound from the front speakers, although I can test all the 6 speakers I have, in the Audio Midi Setup. Why this? Should I make a particular configuration that I don't know? Or I simply have a problem with my USB sound card?

 

Please your help would be so welcome! :(

She is married pal, but she is nice and helpful. she helped me also before.

 

Doh! I thought she was free and available for a guy that looks like an asteroid! :P

Anyway I am married, too.. but I would be disposable to marry again and have two wives, a real one and a mac one :( ...hoping she wants too...

LOL. :withstupid:

 

B512, that is normal, since iTunes handle only stereo signal, AFAIK there are no multichannel software on Mac, the only thing I can set up is a Surround Sound but only with the driver and application of the Sonica Theater, and that is only on PPC Mac only, if M-Audio releases a Intel or universal driver I think it could be done on X86 too.

 

The only applications I get full 5.1 channels is DVD Player and VLC but only with DVD and AVIs with 5.1 stream audio, and that is only in the Digital Output that I connect to a Home Theater.

 

Yeah I´m married, and that is the only one I want :blink:

LOL. :hysterical:

Thank you very much! Well, I guess I have to be content to be just as a friend of yours! :P

 

So since I don't have a Digital Output, I cannot get the 5.1 channels even with DVD Player and VLC, right?

 

What a pity!

 

Hope that Apple does something in the near future...
