Description
Click this check box to enable the 7.1 Virtual Speaker Shifter.
Clicking the text bar will switch the right window to the
Speaker Shifter page for manual adjustments.
You can drag each speaker or listener to a different relative
position "virtually" using only your mouse. The Xonar DX
audio card will process it and virtualize each speaker position
in real-time. The Subwoofer has no directional sounds, and
hence can be moved only closer or further away.
Reset all Speaker Shifter settings to the defaults.
Click + to increase volume (move speakers closer); click – to
decrease volume (move speakers further away)
Make all speakers (except Subwoofer) rotate counter-
clockwise
Make all speakers (except Subwoofer) rotate clockwise
Manually drag and rotate all speakers (except Subwoofer)
This is the default mode that allows you to manually drag
each speaker or the listener with your mouse.
