Virtual surround sound (Audigy SE Sound Card)


Hello,

I am running PC Linux OS, and installed Creative Lab's Sound Blaster Audigy SE sound card.

I would like to hear MP3 audio in virtual surround sound, through stereo speakers. I only hear the music in stereo. I have the ALSA MIXER GUI, but do not find any option for the virtual surround sound.

Are there any decoder applications which I can use?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi johnnyboii03, Welcome to LQ. I checked and the link in my original post is still valid. Give that a read and post any specific questions back here.
Good Luck. ;-)
