The M003 Motherboard 1-3
Powerful Audio
Processing Engine
The EMU10K1
™
audio processor is the most powerful integrated music, audio and effects
engine available. Every signal is processed at 32-bit, 48 kHz using 8-point interpolation to
smoothen the sound—instantly improving any audio source. Besides advanced signal
processing, the EMU10K1 also provides real-time effects including Reverb, Chorus, Flanger,
Echo, and Pitch Shifter, that rival a stand-alone effects processor worth US$500.
Environmental Audio
Enhances Existing
Contents
Experience depth and realism beyond existing 3D audio. Sound Blaster Live! provides preset
environments such as hall, cave or underwater that can be applied to your existing games and
applications for incredibly true sound. You can be listening to your favorite music piece in the
room at one moment and in the concert hall, the next. Sound Blaster Live! also provides game
environmental settings that can make your existing games come “alive” instantaneously.
Multiple Speaker Output
Produce surround-sound audio on your PC with built-in support for two or four speakers. With
support for multiple-speaker digital speaker systems like Cambridge SoundWorks’ PCWorks
FourPointSurround
™
and DeskTop Theater 5.1
™
systems, you are no longer limited in your 3D
audio applications.
1024-Voice Music
Synthesis
Sound Blaster Live! delivers up to 1024-voice capability that goes beyond the quality and
performance available in most professional music equipment. With additional voices, Sound
Blaster Live! delivers richer MIDI playback, simultaneous playback of more instruments to
create better quality sound, and the creation of the “sustain effect”.
Using host memory, you can choose from E-mu’s 2 MB, 4 MB, or 8 MB SoundFont
®
professional-quality sample banks for music reproduction. Alternatively, you can use up to
32 MB of memory for amazing SoundFont music fidelity.
And Sound Blaster Live! is able to deliver all these without sacrificing CPU utilization because
of its very effective hardware-accelerated processing engine.
