About Sound Blaster X-Fi?
Sound Blaster X-Fi is a series of sound cards within the Creative's Sound Blaster lineup. Upon its release, the audio processor on X-Fi was considered the most powerful, providing a robust sample rate conversion (SRC) engine, enhanced internal sound channel routing options, and advanced 3D audio enhancement capabilities. A significant portion of the audio processing unit was dedicated to the resampling engine, which was far more capable than previous offerings by Creative. X-Fi MB is a software solution that brings basic X-Fi features to computers with integrated audio, effectively turning them into an X-Fi device. This solution requires driver support from the audio hardware manufacturer and is often bundled with motherboards and computer systems. It is comparable to an X-Fi XtremeAudio and is bundled with some Asus and ASRock motherboards as X-Fi Supreme FX. The X-Fi MB solution is implemented entirely in software, and is also sold under the name Sound Blaster X-Fi Integrated Sound by other hardware vendors. This solution transforms integrated HD audio codecs into X-Fi devices, providing users with access to the advanced features of the X-Fi lineup.
