[...] looks like Daniel Kawakami has stopped working on his stuff as referenced HERE. It looks like Creative has made ALchemy free and released new drivers 2.18.0001 [...]

I need the Audigy SE drivers, the ones I tried here didn’t work and those links he gives are DOA

This is to a guy that did nothing than support a bunch of people, i was about to go crazy with my x-fi card running on vista and was ready to trash it, but then i found Daniel K’s drivers and all i can say is THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I bought my card not knowing all the problems that it had on vista, and the fucked up support from creative (like if they care, cause they already got my money) blaming everybody else instead of backup his products, and yeah creative might have an increase in sales but to make a profit they need to fire all the bunch of lazy stupid motherF**** programmers that keep getting paid for drinking coffe and just a thought when some company hires Daniel and we know his writing the drivers, who do you think we are going to support your “Fatal1ty” or the “X-fi 2″ or the “Kawakami X-fi 3″ card….

Having just installed Daniel_K’s drivers for A2ZSPP on Windows XP, I have to say the man is a genius of magnificent proportions. The installation was painless as opposed to YouP_PAX, which I suffered with for many years, in some cases having to even do a complete fresh install of XP. I seriously hope he continues his work in secrecy. God knows we need people like him to make us feel we haven’t wasted our hard earned money on products that by all means deserve more support and enthusiasm than Creative gives them.

One thing’s for sure, X-Fi 2 can go fuck itself. Auzentech’s X-Fi Prelude is the closest I can get to utilising Creative’s fancy features without directly buying their crap.

daniel_k may have given up supporting Audigy series - but here at nomoregoatsoup we aren’t done yet. Not until our Audigy’s work correct.

There are several interesting Audigy driver projects under construction, and not just on this site either! There are YouPax offerings, kX-Mixer and many other modded sets under construction. I’ve seen a couple of audigy crystalizer and working dts/dd decoders in the making too..

Watch this space…

Peace out, Goat

You know, the latest and greatest package (Feb 08), returned by Audigy2 zs to its former glory. Superb, bright, powerful.

It’s a shame to see you bow out of the arena. Creative have not silenced a hero, but created a legend.

Thank you and may God guide your hand.

We will miss you mate… You’ve made my card come to life in Vista…
Now I’m only left with one choice - either use KX Drivers OR use another card…
