I was bored and I decided to test the noise levels with RMAA using these drivers and these were the results:

X-Fi Titanium Fatality (SB880) | Windows 10 22H2 | Drivers v2.17.0008C MOD

Windows Playblack & Record (Sample Rate and Bit Depth)



Audio Creation Mode Settings

Master Volume: 100%
What u Hear: 66%

RMAA 6.4.5


[MME] Speakers (Creative X-Fi)
[MME] "What U Hear" (Creative X-Fi)

Results 1 (16bit, 44kHz | 16bit, 48kHz | 24bit, 44kHz | 24bit, 48kHz | 24bit, 96kHz | 24bit, 192kHz.


Results 2 (32bit (int), 48kHz | (32bit (float), 48kHz | (32bit (int), 96kHz | (32bit (float), 96kHz | (32bit (int), 192kHz | (32bit (float), 192kHz.

You need to install Creative THX console for X-fi. Once installed, it is accessible via Creative Console launcher when you click on the speaker icon near the 2.1/4.1/5.1/Headphones dropdown. There you can set the position of the speakers and increase volume individually for each speaker.
it only lets me decrease the level, not increase.

All driver packages have been re-uploaded. Packages no longer require file extraction. The installer runs directly from the "Driver" folder. Important components of the installer and software have been updated, including DDL\DTS.

The package with driver 2.17.0008C was also updated. Fixed a bug that caused the PC to freeze when switching to 44.1 kHz in Audio Creation Mode.

Link to the X-Fi driver catalog.

Hi! These drivers (2.17.0008c MOD) are among the best I have tried, even including the drivers for Windows XP, the sound is quiet and clean... you won't have better than this at the moment and includes the entire Creative Software Suite updated for recents versions of windows :

- ALchemy
- AutoMode Conmuttator
- THX Console
- Soundfont Bank
- Smart Recorder
- Console Launcher
- Audio Control Panel
- Volume Panel

Saludos!

You must disable automatic driver updates from Windows Update and reinstall the driver. Read the "Readme" file carefully.
If you are not going to play old games with OpenAL\EAX support, you can install the driver package version 2.40.0019.

Hi, the script that ANTES533 post is to change a key in regedit and is used to deactivate the driver update that Windows performs when it finds an older driver on the PCs... Follow these steps:

1. Run the script "Auto Update Drivers ON OFF". In my case I do not do this since I do not use Windows updates, I have them permanently disabled with the program "WindowsUpdateBlocker".

2. The second step is to uninstall the entire Creative suite from the control panel, this should also uninstall the driver and restart in safe mode. This can be done in several ways, I will put 2 methods:

A) Hold shift key and restart the PC from start menu. or B) Go to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Advanced Startup and click the Restart button.
When the computer turns on again it will show you the advanced startup options. Click Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, and finally Startup Settings and select Enable Safe Mode (with the numeric keypad).

3. Once in Safe Mode, run the program Display Driver Unistaller (Audio > Soundblaster) to completely remove the driver and (additionally) manually delete any remaining Creative folders (C:ProgramFIles(x86), ProgramData & C:\Users\PCNAME\AppData\Roaming) and hold shift key and restart the PC. Follow the same steps as to enter safe mode but now you will select to Disable driver signature enforcement.

4. Finally install the modified driver with all the applicactions you want and restart the PC. If everything went well, you should have the driver installed without Windows having replaced it, otherwise you have a problem with Step 1.

And as ANTES533 told you before, if you are not interested in playing older games that use EAX/EFX or OpenAL hardware acceleration, simply use the modified v2_40_0019 drivers.

Saludos!
