Settings Tab

This tab allows you to select your exact speaker configuration and provides you with sliders for adjusting the
master volume, left/right speaker balance, fade control (balance between front and back speakers), Center/LFE
(Low Frequency Effects) level control for 5.1 channel playback, and Tone Control which affects all channels.

Output Mode

Headphone

Select this mode when listening using headphones rather than speakers. The headphones should be plugged
into the "front" speaker jack.
Selecting "Headphone" tells the sound card to use a special 3D algorithm when playing 3D games. Selecting "2
Speakers" will result in incorrect sound positioning when using headphones. Selecting "Headphones" when
using speakers will reduce the effectiveness of 3D effects.
Note: The Seismic Edge is designed for use with headphones or amplified (powered) speakers. Use with
passive (non-amplified) speakers is not recommended.

2 Speakers

Select this mode when using stereo (2 or 3 piece) speaker systems. The Seismic Edge will apply advanced
3D algorithms to virtualize sounds all around you when playing compatible 3D audio enabled games.
