Re: soundcard problems emu 0404
I have the same exact card...and I STILL can't figure out if I'm happy with it or not! LOL! I've heard rave reviews...but jesus, you have to be a rocket scientist to figure out the software! I still have yet to patch a simple MIDI file to their built-in MIDI synth. It's a ridiculously involved process. I hope it's just that the card is wayyyyyyyy more card than I'll ever need...and the difficulty is somehow reflective of its total capabilities.
In any case,
I had the same problem that you're referring to until I went in and played with one of the "setups". I think after trying out all sorts of I/O adjustments and all, I simply loaded up their default setting from the drop-down window, and suddenly everything came back to life! It's definitely in your software.
Try this...
When you have Patchmix open, on the right hand side, right beneath the E-MU logo at the top left, click on the "new" icon (looks like a blank sheet of paper, then select the first setting "Digital Default". You should be back in business after that!
Good luck....and hope you're feeling better!

Re: soundcard problems emu 0404
Dave thanks for the advice and support unfortunately it doesnt werk as well ad we both hoped i raised my volume on max and i didnt hear any sound after i plugged in my mic and turned on my mixer and the good part is this sound card doesnt give off noise then i lowered it put on some music to made sure the speakers were werking and my music played and they came up on the patch mix levels back to the drawing board
