Does anyone now how to increase the sound bank on this card, the drop down menu only has 4MB, my old soundblaster live card went up to 8MB and it sounded better, it sounds a bit tinny at the minute. Thanks

Hello,

I'm not sure about the Audigy 2 but for my Audigy it is in AudioHQ - Soundfont. There are options there to increase the amount of memory your system can use for soundfonts. The default banks are not bad although, like you say, they are a bit "thin".

You can load some other soundfonts in there.

There are loads of free soundfonts on the net. Just do a search and you'll see what I mean. Some of them are very good, others are well.... Trial and error will get you what you need.

Hope this helps

Here this might help you better than I can for now. Since I haven't had the chance to play with an Audigy 2 myself....yet.

And here is a good place to learn about soundfonts and what you can do with them:
