Maybe a strange counter-question, but don't your speakers have bass/treble controls that you can use??

But you must mean the bass/treble under sound->advanced?

Did you install all the proper drivers for your soundcard?? Checked up on the website for it's latest drivers?

I have one of these, and no, I don't get bass and treble in advanced controls either. Pissoff really, as my old ISA SB16ASP did, but it is slower so I will stick with the Yamaha unit. Also, nehalmistry, do you have a reliable website where you can get later drivers from? I am still using drivers from 1997!(ver 4.05) The reference drivers at Yamaha's sight are slower and more crash prone, so I still use these old things. If you find a way to solve the bass/treble question, tell us all as there are alot of people out there who have this prob. One person told me that it is because of the PCI bus only running 3.3 volts as opposed to the 5.5 volts of the ISA, therefore the amp has to be alot smaller and doesn't have enough power for gain controls. It makes sense as all the ISA cards I have used were alot louder than this one.

bohrn, i didnt know that isa supplied more power... maybe thats why... yes.. the amp on isa is much more on my sb16 awe32 than it is on my yamaha card... but its not the amp power on my yamaha card, its the bass/treble controls in advanced volume controls... not the same thing
but im guessing that there is nothing i can do about it...i tried MANY drivers...

since i cant fix that... can someone fix this problem.. my yamaha card has less hissing noise than my sbawe32.. of course you cant notice when your playing a sound... but when you plug it into my sb card... i can hear this small shh sound.. when im not playing any sound... on my pci yamaha card... it is much less... is there a way to reduce that... ive disabled all other inputs..line in, mic, cd, etc... ???

oh yeh... SB LIVE(pci) does have bass/treble so it is possible..

Yea, seems to me that Creative drivers enable this somewhere in windows. I can't tho, so I guess I'm stuck. My sub has an amp and a bass control on it tho, so..With the older Sb cards, I would set treble to 0 in the autoexec.bat line. This seems to get rid of the hissing prob. Way back when my sb16asp was the tech of the day, I bought one and it says to do this in the manual. This was for dos of course, but it works in 9x as well. Oh and can you tell me what drivers you are using and where to get them? For the Yamaharley card tho, not Creative's. Thank you.
