Hi, thanks for the reply. This is really interesting.. I guess I’m only needing an SPDIF output because Im only consuming audio, I’m not trying to produce any.. I’m still looking into their Soundblaster Pro Studio to look for any solution towards that. I found that they have special feature such as Smart Volume (compression) and something called ‘Play stereo mix using digital output’ feature. Which allows us to add eq/effects into digital output. Do you have any experience with this and mind sharing some?
