Switching Modes - Creative Sound Blaster User Manual

Switching modes

It is recommended that
you do not play any audio
files before switching
between Digital Only and
Digital/Analog mode.
Sometimes, you may
need to close and launch
the audio application after
switching modes for it to
function properly.
Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS
pass-through is only
available in Digital Only
mode.
You can switch between Digital Only and Digital/Analog mode using the Digital/
Analog switch located on the side panel of Sound Blaster. The table below illustrates
the different functions between each mode:
