The sound of the card is flawless, even if it is a bit colder than the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro. It should also be mentioned that, unlike many other Creative products, the Omni does not have DTS Connect, but only Dolby Digital Live. For players, there is also the scout mode, which emphasises the sounds of the opponents in the game and allows you to better hear the potential sneaking up of the opponent. However, the old CMSS-3D seemed a little more precise, with SBX celebrating a little more of a mid-range feel. The software/drivers are a huge improvement over the old drivers on my Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and offer a variety of features, such as the SBX Pro Studio sourround emulation. However, I haven't tested them in games yet. I would deduct half a star for this shortcoming. As soon as a headset is plugged in, the output always goes through it until you unplug it again. Although the sound card has dedicated connections for speakers and headsets, there is unfortunately no option to switch between the two. However, there is nothing wrong with the workmanship. The card is about the size of three iPhone 5s placed on top of each other, so it might be a bit too big for mobile use. However, mute, volume and player controls work perfectly.

The card comes in a compact box containing the sound card, a USB connection cable (a little short at about 1m), a cinch jack adapter and a somewhat cheap remote control with a few non-functional buttons. Due to a new graphics card, I had to change out of p.ĭue to a new graphics card and lack of space, I had to switch to an external sound card, in my case the Omni.
