Manufacturer description

Revolution 7.1 is the ultimate audio upgrade for your PCI-based computer. Play DVDs and all your music in surround sound, make games more realistic, and record or mix your own music. 7.1 surround sound output and high-definition 24-bit/192kHz fidelity insures that you'll experience it all the way that it was meant to sound. Designed by M-Audio - one of the biggest names in the pro music industry - Revolution 7.1 packs all this advanced technology into a small PCI card that's a breeze to install and use. Music, movies and games all become more intense, more alive when you're surrounded by sound. Revolution 7.1 is the ultimate PCI solution providing output for up to seven speakers and a subwoofer, rivaling even the best movie theaters. Where 5.1 places speakers beside you, 7.1 places them both beside and behind you for a much more immerse and believable surround sound experience. Sound effects become so real that you'll find yourself ducking to avoid bullets and low-flying planes. And Revolution 7.1 fully supports stereo, 4.1, 5.1, and 6.1 formats as well. Built-in SRS Circle Surround II technology instantly transforms your music collection into incredibly lifelike surround sound music. It dynamically separates instruments, vocals, and even crowd noises for an experience you have to hear to believe. Full support for Microsoft Windows Media 9 means you can play surround sound audio from the Internet today. And if you don't have a 5.1 or 7.1 speaker system, TruSurround XT lets you enjoy the benefits of multi-channel by providing virtual surround sound on your stereo or even headphones. Ultra-realistic 3D positional audio makes you feel like you're really in the game and gives you the advantage of hearing exactly where danger lies. Revolution 7.1 supports today's popular game technologies such as Sensaura, EAX, DirectSound, and A3D. Your games will never be the same.
