Audigy 2 Equalizer Settings...

Okay, I just got my new Audigy 2 card, I bought it strictly for gaming. As soon as I installed it I noticed a huge difference. I hear though, by adjusting the equalizer settings the sounds will be even better (ie: more noticable footsteps)
Anyone have any suggestions for the correct settings?

Check the preset equalizer settings, there should be one for gaming.

There isnt a preset one for games...best thing to do is mess around until you get something you like. There are lots of settings to play around with.

Ya, it takes forever though. I mean, I don't even know what each slidebar means : /

IMO the preset of Rock makes everything sound more clear and better.

far left is bass, far right is high. Everything else in between is mids, low mids, high mids.

There isn't a "stock" setting that will sound good anywhere. It's all dependent on your speakers, the room, the distance of the speakers from your face, etc. Just tweak each one a bit, until you get a sound you like. For example, a set of Z680's will sound excellent with one setting, but my M-Audio studio monitors will sound like crap with that same setting.

Tweak, baby, tweak.

I agree with FreeTheRock. The Rock EQ is very good. I mainly listen to hip-hop and r&b and use the rock EQ.
