Using Eax - Creative NOMAD JUKEBOX 3 Manual

Using EAX

General information
about EAX is available
in "About EAX" on page
B-2, while information
about specific EAX
settings can be found
in "Useful terms to
know" on page A-1.
Besides Play Modes, your player also allows you to enhance your listening
experience with EAX technologies formerly available only with Creative's Sound
Blaster Live! and Audigy audio cards. EAX technologies (or "Settings") available in
your player include:
• Smart Volume Management (SVM), which intelligently controls the dynamic
range of audio, providing a superior audio experience in difficult listening
environments such as in a plane or car.
• Time Scaling, which allows you to speed up or slow down audio without
changing pitch or distorting sound quality.
• Environment, a collection of presets that allows you to experience audio in the
virtual environment of your choice, such as in a Concert Hall or Cathedral.
• Advanced EQ, a collection of equalizer settings which can enhance audio of a
particular genre. Listen to the difference when you select "Jazz" in a jazz
recording.
• Spatialization, which enhances your audio soundstage, useful if, for example,
you are listening to audio with headphones.
