Hi again I forgot to mention this website: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=audigyls Maybe this one offers the most straightforward explaination to my problem. It clearly states that the live! 24bit is not yet supported but there's a solution involving .diff files.... I have no idea how .diff file works, so any help?
