一般而言,驱动是硬件正常运转的保证,厂商都在不断地优化驱动并不断发放给用户,但是新加坡著名声音设备厂商创新让驱动也可以卖钱了.
创新发布了一款Audigy系列声卡的EAX增强驱动,以重新启用Windows Vista中的EAX,此前由于微软关闭了Vendor Extension mechanism导致功能不可用.但用户需要为一个硬件上本来就有的功能付出额外的10美元,能不能被他们接受这可能是一个问题,不知道各位怎么看待创新驱动收费这一举措?In Windows Vista, Microsoft removed the Vendor Extension mechanism from Vista’s DirectSound implementation. With previous Windows Operating Systems, the Vendor Extension enabled the Sound Blaster Audigy to provide accelerated audio for DirectSound3D games.
Without Creative ALchemy, most DirectSound games running in Vista will be reduced to stereo output without any EAX effects.
Creative ALchemy (Audigy Edition) restores your Sound Blaster Audigy’s ability to process EAX effects, 3D surround sound, sampling rate conversion and hardware audio mixing for DirectSound3D games in Windows Vista.
