Jan 11, 2016 - SB0060 PCI Card & Creative Live Drive IR SB0010 driver. I need driver for creative sound blaster live model number sb0060 for windows 7.

Introduction Today we will consider in details a sound card Creative SoundBlaster Live! Platinum 5.1. Despite the fact that a sound chip on all cards of the SoundBlaster Live!

Model series is the same - EMU10K, the new card from Creative with a prefix 5.1 is already their third generation originating from 1998. This card, Live! Platinum 5.1, is the most perfect creation of Creative today. A fleeting glance at the box: In the first turn your eyes catch magic signs 5.1. On the other hand, there is a tempting remote-control hiding on the right side of the picture. In other respects, the design is fully correspond to the previous card of Creative from the same series, - the SBLive! If you haven't guessed what 5.1 means, I'll explain.

It's the last word in fashion in sound card market - to provide their products with 6 analog linear outputs for reproduction of sound accompaniment decoded for 6 channels in games, DVD-movies and even for reproduction of multichannel musical compositions (files with AC3 extension). Another considerable innovation is an improved module for 5-inch department Live! Magic views bot cracked games. Drive IR: So, on the first panel of your computer you can have available: • 2 pairs of digital interfaces (RCA and optical inputs and outputs) • adjustable headphone jack (5-mm jack) • combined adjustable mic/linear input (5-mm jack) • linear input 2 for recording from home equipment (separate left and right RCA connectors) • MIDI interface, input & output (PS/2 connector, the complete set includes adapters for a standard 5-pin DIN) The IR in the module's name stands for infra red, meaning a support of an infrared remote-control. Indeed, the card is not cheap, and such option as a remote-control looks not as an excess but as a logical extension of its possibilities.

The high price is justified by a well-thought board complete set: • PCI itself with plastic connectors (with a bit strange marking SB0060) • Interface module Live! 0.0180 Part2. PC-D-A-D-PC The second series of testing was carried out by giving a signal from linear outputs of the card into its linear inputs with a cable 'minijack-minijack' soldered from shielded mic wires (d=6 mm, 10 cm long), golden connector of Taiwan production. Out of the cables we made a twisted-pair cable.

These tests would interest those who are going to implement sampling of an audiosignal from a linear input (e.g. To write musical compositions from a tuner and than compress them into mp3). 0.0126 Line2 input is a linear input on the panel Live!Drive IR. I disassembled the module to study what was inside.

As an ADC for this input there used a chip Philips UDA1360T with quite good characteristics (SNR = -97 dB A @ U=0, THD+N=-80.85 dB A @ 0 dB). And as to the path for headphones with a volume control (together with DAC UDA1451TS), I didn't like it much. The second harmonic is huge, besides it will be too noisy as compared with the Rear Out (the control was implemented with headphones Philips HP600 for Digital, 106 dB sensitivity). So, the conclusion. The measured characteristics allow claiming that the Platinum 5.1 is at least not worse than its predecessor, a usual Platinum. And in the tests Codec's loopback (especially in 44.1 KHz), the 5.1 pulled itself up considerably. That is, it makes no sense to buy an old Platinum today.

AFC (amplitude-frequency characteristic) Let's look at the AFC of the card. The file with fluently changing frequency from 20 Hz to 20 KHz was generated in the CoolEdit 2000. Waves appeared in the beginning of the frequency scale is because of our methodical inaccuracy. They appear because of life-finitness of the test WAV-file. And enlarged scale: The Platinum 5.1 have pleased us with the even AFC of its inputs and outputs.
