hello, one thing you can also check creative's website to see if they have demo software that you can download to try. that might be a option for you. i am not using any scripts, or any special work arounds. and i am able to access creative's software and eq settings. but i got the software with my card. its the xfi series but i got the one thats around $199 it gives you the extra front stereo inputs and volume level & menu buttons to select options.

also usually a sound card is set to its default settings, but one thing you can do is if your using itunes there eq is very accessible, i use itunes, and i created various eq settings for different applications, and the music coming through itunes sounds absolutely amazing. i am very picky with my sound too.

thanks les

the work arounds i have are as follows, get a sighted person to help tweek the card, work with scripters to make scripts for the screen reader/ or use

hot spot clicker to do the jobs you need to do.
I have maped out for me what works best formy card.
if you are wanting to tweek the sound that comes from yourmedia players why
not use the internal settings for each media player?
Plus i have some knoledge of high and low settings for getting the best out
of  the card i have.

It is certainly conceivable that you don't care about the sound coming out of your card; that is your affair. I, however, do and yes, I want and yes
expect that I will be able to access what I paid for.  Clearly you don't
have an answer to contribute and that's ok. Equaly clearly you haven't been
reading this thread because I'm not the only one who has been having
difficulties with Creative. I am willing, however, to stand up and say that we need access to what we pay for just as our seeing counterparts do. It is my obligation and my right to warn people against making the mistakes that I
have.

Now I notice that happy as you are with this card, you have made no effort to discuss whatever workarounds you may have established, which leads me to believe that you are just using the card in its flat default response. This is your privilege, but I want at least the ability to get some treble out of the high end. Since this appears to be too much to ask, I am now asking for alternatives and chosing to walk away from this company, which I find to be
entirely unresponsive.

dave, i think your behavior towards this company is not  outstanding just
because you have trouble with a product doesnt mean others have problems
with their products, doesn't?
I for one have had really good luck with the creative tech support when
asking questions
they have been able to point out things to me.
they do listen to blind people.
SOmetimes.
you have to wonder weather or not blind people really just want to be
sighted.
if you do ot like the x-fi card you have you can always go for something
else but for blind people I belive if that a product works for them then
leave  the company alone.
I have been using creative products all the time and have had no troubles
configuring them.
We do not need to boycot the company. just because you say we should. do we?
are you an athority of sound cards, or the one that tells  everyone to do
what and when? just wondering.
if script writers would take a look at the cards interface, and ask the
right questions maybe just maybe a person could script the cards.

Are there any sound cards left out there that one can actually control? I
really think we need to boycott Creative as their no good foreign tech
support has been worse than useless.  There is no answer at the corporate
office so I am unable to lodge a complaint anywhere that anyone will listen
to.  This company should dry up and die.  Go back to Singapore and croke!
