Using 2 soundcards

merlinx76 · 1st April 2011, 02:54 PM

I currently use a Soundblaster Live with KxProject drivers for my audio with an active lowpass xo in KxProject for my subs.

I was looking into getting a Gigaworks DAC and was wondering if I could use the Gigaworks for my fullrange towers via USB while still using KxProject and the Soundblaster for my subs? I would imagine this can be done but I want to be sure.

Another way would be to use the SPdif from the soundcard ...can the SPdif be used for 2 channels at the same time as the analog outputs are being used for another 2 channels?

I do something similar with Win 7x64, each program is configured to either use HDMI out or USB.
