Showcase Demo

Three demo packages have been included to showcase the basic as well as the advanced features of your Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX hardware. We recommend that you play them at least once in order to have a good overview of your card’s features.

This is a good starting point from which you can learn about Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX. The Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Getting Started Demo consists of several interactive and informative demos that highlight different aspects of Sound Blaster Audigy 2: experiencing digital music and digital gaming, watching movies, connecting speakers, and performing tasks.

Use the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Feature Showcase Demo to feel the audio card’s awesome gaming, music reproduction and home studio capabilities.

Experience the following exciting features of the new Sound Blaster Audigy 2:

DVD-Audio Playback — Learn more about this new, high-resolution music format and experience the difference when a DVD-Audio clip is being played.

EAX ADVANCED HD technologies — Experience complex multi-environment audio effects as you navigate through a fascinating virtual 3D world. Run this demonstration and experience EAX ADVANCED HD technologies such as Environment Panning, Environment Reflection and Environment Morphing. Compare the scenes with and without EAX ADVANCED HD, and you will understand why more game developers are using EAX ADVANCED HD technologies for the best gaming experience.

Dolby Digital Surround EX Support — Listen to a THX audio demonstration containing an additional

rear channel (rear center) that produces a richer and more consistent surround effect than that of systems with only two rear channels.

Note: The Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Feature Showcase Demo can be installed using the separate Feature Showcase Demo CD in your package. This demo will run only if a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX card is installed because the software utilises the card’s hardware capabilities for the demonstrations.
