1-8 Knowing and Installing Your Card
With the Digital Output Module connected to the Digital Out jack of the Sound Blaster Live!
card, you get two sets of SPDIF (RCA) and Optical outputs which allow you to connect and
record to external digital devices like MiniDisc or DAT recorders.
If you are a musician with semi-professional requirements, you may want to upgrade your
Sound Blaster Live! card with either the Optical Digital I/O card (plus Digital I/O Module),
or the Drive Bay.
For either options, you will be given:
• A set of SPDIF (RCA) and Optical input/output jacks for recording to and from external
digital devices;
• Standard MIDI input/output connectors for connection to MIDI devices;
• A Digital DIN connector for connection to digital speakers such as the
FourPointSurround or DeskTop Theater 5.1 Digital Speaker Systems;
• A second analog Line In allows you to connect to an additional input device (e.g. a CD
player) for recording.
The Drive Bay fits into the standard 5¼" drive bay of your computer and thus allows you easy
access to these connectors from its front panel. The Headphones and Microphone utilizes ¼"
jacks for high-quality connectivity.
