[. . . ] Environmental modeling uses reverb (reflected sound) and delay to create the impression that the listener is in a particular environment. QEM provides a wide range of high-quality environmental modeling effects that are selectable from the Visualization panel. By selecting a default environment, you impose the effects of that environment for music, movies, or games that do not use the EAX feature, Sonic EdgeTM Soundcard User's Guide 16 Philips Sound Solutions PSA2 responds automatically to games that use the EAX and EAX2. 0 commands. These games automatically control the selection of environments (regardless of what is selected from the Visualization panel) to match various scenes and locations, and change these selections as the environment changes. The applied intensity of reverb is controllable by a slider in the Visualization panel. If the level of Reverb is not as expected, check the slider in the Visualization panel and adjust properly. 3. 2. 8. QSizzle Turn on or off the QSizzle effect. When on, enhances the mid/high-frequency range of the audio stream. The button label lights up when QSizzle is enabled. 3. 2. 9. QRumble Turn on or off the QRumble effect. When on, it enhances the low frequency range of the audio stream. Normalization Normalization automatically adjusts the volume variations in various audio files or streams. Quieter signals are amplified to match the level of louder ones, so that the listening volume maintains a consistent level. This means that when playing files with various output levels, constantly adjusting your speaker volume becomes a thing of the past. The label Normalization Active appears in illuminated text when Normalization is enabled, and Normalization Off when disabled. 3. 3. 2. 4. 3D Effects The goal of 3D effects processing is to maximize immersion and realism for any type of listening material and every type of output hardware ­ two or more speakers, headphones, or even the unique combination of speakers with headphones. Four separate 3D audio enhancement algorithms are provided to maximize the spatial experience no matter what the combination of signal type and output hardware. When 3D Effects are enabled the audio processor will automatically choose the appropriate algorithm (3D mode) according to your output configuration and the type of input signal. The 3D Effect indicators on the Effects Tab light to show which algorithm is active at any given time. QXpander is optimal for 2-channel (stereo) input played over 2 speakers (or 2 satellite speakers plus a subwoofer). QXpander provides a wider sound field, way beyond the physical position of the speakers QSurround is optimal when a multi channel source is played (e. g. QSurround optimizes the sound to create "virtual" speakers and immerse the listener in surround sound. [. . . ] On Windows 98SE and ME select the Device Manager tab on top.
