Troubleshooting/FAQ


Q : I hear nothing
A : Check your Connections, did you plug your Amp to OUT2 of EWS? Does your EWS64 work with other programs or games? Is the Routing of EWS64 right? (At the Control Panel, I am using the A of "ADM" and the A of "ABC"). Is the EWS64 in Four-Channel-Mode?

Q : I check the points above, but I hear nothing
A : Have you set the Output's of the two Winamps to "EWS64XL WavePlay #1" and "EWS64XL WavePlay #2"? Does Winamp work if you use Winamp standalone? Does Winamp work if you use CodecPlay for Output? Try out the little program "unmute" in the EWS64 Directory.

Q : The program works well, but after using the program, i can't hear anything of my other programs or games.
A : Don't forget to plug your Amp to OUT1 after using X-Mix99. Here could help the program "unmute", too.

Q: Something strange happens. I can't change the Pitch of the Winamp, but the song will be played. Or the time runs in left window, but the pitch can be changed with the right slider...
A: You should swap your WinAmps, by pressing the right Mousebutton on OPTIONS.

Q : The reaction time of X-Mix is bad.....
A : You should try out to switch off the Doubleclick of Windows 95/98. To do this, set the doubleclick-speed in the mousoptions of Windows to fastest possible. Now it is impossible to use the Doubleclick. After using XMix you should enable again the Doubleclick. Use the right mousebutton to open the windows ;-)

Q: I want to play Wave-Files instead of MP3.....
A: You can play everything, what WinAmp is able to play

Q: I am playing an Audio-CD, but I can't change the pitch.
A: Right, nobody can change the pitch of an Audio-CD, but..... there is an alternative CD-ROM-Driver. This driver enables you to get all audiotracks as Wave-Files DIRECTLY from CD without CD-Grabber. These one you can play and change the pitch. The driver can be found here : http://home.student.utwente.nl/uisintveld/ewshideout/center_coolstuff.html

A: no problem, write an Email and i will see, if I could help you. Wait for the next update!
