BASS_GetInfo is reporting that the terratec dmx6 fire is not EAX enabled but sensaura info app and terratec are reporting support for eax 1 and 2. I have some troubles and some sound "glitches" and "cracks" using Bass library with this soundcard but I experienced not any problems with Hercules soundcards and creative soundcards. I am using mainly 3D sounds with Bass. Tested under win2K and winXP with latest drivers. The chip on terratec soundcards is VIA envy 24. On hercules it's crystal soundchip. Any ideas? Thanks

You mention mainly using 3D sounds, so I guess you're already using the BASS_DEVICE_3D flag when initializing BASS. But if not, you should, as EAX is only detected when BASS is initialized with 3D support (EAX only affects 3D sounds). Is EAX being detected correctly (using the same code) on the other cards you've tried?

With some cards/drivers, EAX can be disabled. So you should check the drivers' config for such an option. You could also try playing a game that uses EAX, to check that it's working.

Yes I use BASS-DEVICE-3D flag when initialising BASS. EAX is correctly reported on other cards. EAX is working in games with the terratec. It seems the drivers are built around the latest sensaura sdk. The more I investigate the more it seems that this is a drivers issue. Thanks for your help.

That's strange. I'll send you a debug version to see what's going on there
