I have a AN7 board with the Soundstorm integrated audio, but I don't even use it, because I have an Audigy card. I hear a lot of ppl raving about Soundstorm, so I'd like to know why everyone thinks it's so good, and does it offer any advantages over an Audigy card. I tried it out for a while, and I can see some disadvantages:
1. No bass/treble adjustments in control panel
2. No EAX processing features like on the Audigy. By that, I mean I can add effects like chorus and distortion to any sound in realtime, and it only works on the Audigy
Also, is there a way to use the two cards at the same time? I have a front panel I/O connected to the onboard sound, will it work if I use the Audigy as my main card?
