Creative ALchemy

One of the most important characteristics of video games, besides graphics, is the quality of the sound effects and music that help build a more immersive experience for gamers. Sometimes, though, come glitches may occur and most of the time they are related to the audio hardware device and installed sound drivers.

For this reason, hardware manufacturers like Creative devised some dedicated software applications that will fix such mishaps that can happen with some of their devices. In the case of Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi and Creative Sound Blaster Audigy there is a certain utility that is designed for a wide variety of models and which will aid a lot in the processing of audio streams.

Dubbed Creative ALchemy, this piece of kit will come in very handy if you have some rendering problems with DirectSound3D. More precisely, this program channels the streams to be processed by your connected Creative sound card.

In doing so, Creative ALchemy will enable you to enjoy EAX effects and have three-dimensional audio delivered through your sound system. This utility can also enable audio mixing using the hardware's capabilities and allow you to get the desired sample rates by converting them to the quality you see more fit.

Since it is tailored to operate properly only in conjunction with certain hardware devices, Creative Alchemy is somewhat limited when it comes to the number of users who may actually benefit from its features. Otherwise, the functions brought by this software solution should make a very perceptible impact on each system that it is deployed on.
