#3397 — Crystal Cs4624-cq Driver

I bought a A21p last year and the FM sound is working in DOS with driver, but it is unacceptable compared to ESS solo or YMF7x4.

The sound quality overall is like s**t. Maybe it's because the speaker is getting old, not the CS4624 card? ?


Thanks.

Those recordings is OK with me. I recall the sound is somehow bad even in win98 with winamp, it's probably the speaker, but I need to try the "Adlib" option see if there's any difference.

EDIT:

I've tested the Adlib driver for some games, but it's just not my thing. Not that it's bad, guess I'm just more used to the OPL3.

It is often hard to find a right solution to a CS4624 hardware-related error by visiting INTEX's website. Even if you have the expertise, finding, downloading, and updating CS4624 drivers can still be a tedious and messy process. Driver versions that are incorrect will cause more complications with your PC's performance, sometimes causing more damage.


Using a driver upgrade application can allow drivers to update without difficulty. Driver maintenance services make sure that your drivers are up-to-date and that you have a backup of your current drivers before downloading new drivers. With driver backup, you can rollback any driver's software to an earlier version if there is a malfunction.


The Gamesurround Fortissimo III 7.1 sound card is produced by Hercules, the company that made the Game Theater XP on the Crystal CS4630 chip tested in our lab some time ago. The Fortissimo III is based on the budget multimedia chip Crystal CS4624 (developed in 1998). The card aims games and DVD movies with 5.1, 6.1 and 7.1 sound (Power DVD ProEX supplied). It's interesting that Hercules has no 6.1 or 7.1 speaker sets. Since the rear speakers output is combined with a headphones-out, owners of 5.1 acoustic models can consider this connector as a bonus. 





The Box ContentsSound card; Bracket with a game port; CD with drivers and software; User Guide. The user guide written in 8 languages includes the specification, illustratedinstructions for installation of the card and its drivers, connection ofdevices to it etc. Here is the most interesting software from the CD: drivers v4067; DirectX 8.1; Power DVD ProEX with 7.1 support; MediaStation II Player (Multimedia Jukebox); Sonic Foundry ACID XPress loop sequencer.

Yamaha S-YXG50 suppliedThe Cirrus Logic CS4624-CQ was developed yet in July 1998 (and it'snot produced anymore). The DSP has 255 MIPS by the specification. For youto know, the EMU10K controller in the SBLive! has 1000 MIPS. The Cirrus Logic CS4294-JQ codecs' specs:20bit 4-channel output and 2 18bit stereo-ins with the fixed sampling frequencyof 48 kHz; Dynamic range: 87 dB A (DAC), 85 dB A(ADC); SNR + THD 74 dB A; Vrms = 1 V. Control PanelWhen the drivers were flawlessly installed, the system tray got a new iconof the control panel. The interface is a bit too primitive, but everythingyou may need is at hand.





The Main tab offers you to choose a record sound (Stereo Mix, CD, CD2,Mic, Line In, Aux, Digital In) and speakers configuration. You can adjustthe volume level of the signal and stereo panorama. When choosing a speakers configuration in the Master Volume, you willsee the channels of a given configuration highlighted. There are 8 presetsin all: 7.1 Speakers, 6.1 Speakers, 5.1 Speakers, 4 Speakers, 4.1 Speakers,2 Speakers, 2.1 Speakers and Headphones. You can adjust volume of eachchannel independently. The 'Small Speakers' setting ticked off in the presets with the subwooferwill cut off the low frequencies of the signal applied to the satellitesand transfer them to the sub. This option can be very useful in case oflow-power satellites with crippled low frequencies.





The next tab provides a mixer with volume level controls for all inputsand outputs. You can adjust signal's and panorama's levels and mute thesound. 





The following tab shows us a 10-band equalizer with several presets andan operation indicator. But owners of high-quality acoustic systems shouldbetter disable it since the equalizer markedly distorts the sound.





The fourth tab houses various MIDI settings. 





The last tab (Other) covers the following settings: activation of theSensaura algorithms in the drivers (EAX 2.0, I3DL2, A3D 1.0 supported);Enable Stereo expansion (it can be useful exceptionally in games); digitaloutputs adjustment (Mini Disc Optimal Mode disables monitoring of analogoutputs, Digital Audio Source sends a digital signal from the internalinput to the external optical output). RMAA 5.1 TestsWe connected the front output of the Fortissimo III to the line-in of the reference card Lynx Two (SNR 117 dB) with a short high-quality low-noise microphone cable (Proel) with gold-plated connectors. The Lynx Two has standard input sensitivity: -10 dB B. The output signal amplitude of the Hercules card is rather low - 1 V. That is why we normalized the recorded signal up to the required level.

That iswhy the analog section is not a bottleneck of the card. It's also interestingthat the input-to-output test results for the Fortissimo III card almostcoincide with those for the reference card (only the distortions levelis a little higher).RightMark 3DSound Tests

The average value and dispersion go afterthe slash (mean of distribution and standard dispersion) for the 2-minutetest and with accidental releases of the system discounted (swap etc.).Tests in gamesThe listening tests were carried out in Unreal Turnament 2003 and Soldierof Fortune II. To estimate the relative sound quality we used the Audigy2 card as an absolute leader in sound producing in game applications tested.We listened to the same game episodes switching the cards as fast as possible.The Event 20/20bas active monitors used ($1,000).In general, the card plays well, but it's still inferior to the Audigy2. The difference is not huge, but you can feel it. First of all, thereis some difference in the volume levels. The Hercules Fortissimo 7.1 playsmuch quieter than the Audigy 2.Sometimes it's difficult to determine a sound source in the games onthe Fortissimo 7.1 because of the blurry panoramas and not very detailedsound. For example, it can be uneasy to determine a place of explosionwhen a racket blows up behind a virtual hero in UT2003. It's not clearwhether it's on his right or left. In the SoF2 some of the sounds, when a lot of them are played simultaneously,are either hardly heard or not produced at all. In contrast, you can perfectlydetermine how the sound sources are arranged when they are played in numberson the Audigy 2.Also remember, that the difference between their sounding is much lesson inexpensive PC acoustic systems.ConclusionIn the tests the Fortissimo III 7.1 sound card performed quite well bothin the objective and subjective listening tests. In general, this soundcard is a good solution for gamers and for listening to music on inexpensivePC acoustic systems. HighsSensaura algorithms supported (DirectSound 3D, EAX 1.0, EAX 2.0, MacroFX,MultiDrive, ZoomFX, EnvironmentFX) not bad sound; separate headphones out; inexpensive (about $60). Lowslow-level signal from the line-out (1 V); tasteless appearance of the mixer's control panel; obsolete DSP.
