Appendix F: Surround Sound

Delay Management

These controls can be found in the console by clicking the “Settings” button and

selecting the “Surround” tab. They allow you to adjust the amount of delay added

to the playback for each individual surround sound speaker channel. You can move

the sliders anywhere from 0 to 250 ms; 0 ms means no delay. At sea level, sound

travels at about 1 foot per millisecond (ms), so if your speakers are up to 250 feet

away from each other then we’ve got you covered!

Keep in mind that these delay management controls don’t apply to software

applications that use WDM Direct kernel-streaming or ASIO, or if you are using

PureWave mode. They only work with software that uses the standard Windows

APIs (DirectSound, wave/mme, regular WDM, etc), and only with surround sound

encoded audio.

NOTE: Windows XP Service Pack 2 may change some of these settings.
