Creative Labs, so long

by certifiedbug on May 2, 2007

in Programs, Windows Vista

After months of silence from Creative Labs and stonewalling by their forum moderators.

“Based on the feedback received from Audigy users, this is the latest update from our developers:

ALchemy for Audigy Development Started

When we released the first beta of ALchemy for X-Fi, we hoped customers would appreciate our efforts. Within only a few months, the response from users and the press has been overwhelmingly positive. Many of our customers have asked if we could adapt ALchemy to Audigy series sound cards. The X-Fi and Audigy series sound cards are built on different hardware architectures, and therefore require separate development efforts. However, based on the requests to date, we are pleased to announce that we have begun development of an implementation of ALchemy for Audigy series sound cards, and hope to offer this product as a low-cost upgrade to interested Audigy owners later this year.”

Still no word on Drivers, and thanks, but by that time I will have built my new pc.

ALchemy for Audigy

“Low-cost Upgrade” - WTF - Alchemy for Audigy

This silence is answer enough…

Difficulties were obviously experienced by Creative Labs in trying to provide updated drivers that work in Vista. I expected that. However a little communication with your customers would have gone a long way.
