This plugin supports 16 bit or 32 bit fixed point OpenAL output,
so it converts foobar2000's 32 bit float wav data to 16 or 32 bit integer wav.
Supports 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 5.0, 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 channels output.
Sample rate depends on your sound card.
Tested on Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic under Win8x64.

For using:
1. Install OpenAL: http://www.openal.org/creative-installers/oalinst.zip
2. Install vcredist_x86 2010: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555
3. Use from DSP Manager, also set output device to NULL Output.
4. For Hardware Accelerated sound (Windows Vista/7/8/8.1) Your sound card must have also "native" openal driver (for Creative this is ct_oal.dll (not for all Creative cards)). This driver comes in sound card driver package.
5. For Hardware Accelereted effects on SB X-Fi need to switch Game Mode (or use EAX 2.0 in other modes).

User Reviews

  • Very good sound quality.
  • Works fine, volume control works etc with my Asus Xonar DGX, (Asus supplies the Creative OpenAL installer with it's drivers) It does use a bit more resources (0.60~0,85% more CPU) with Foobar then DirectSound, WASAPI or Kernel Streamer uses.
