7. Portable Music Processor™ Software

Guide

7.1 Introduction

Xonar D2X provides the Portable Music Processor

(referred to as PMP hereafter)

software tool that contains the following features:

• Converts MP3, WMA, AAC (iTunes required), Audio CD, WAVE into WMA or

MP3 files with the same ID3 information and post processor effects

• Adds Dolby Headphone processing to regular music content for a better

listening experience over stereo headphones

• Adds Dolby Virtual Speaker (w/ Pro-Logic II) effect to regular music for virtual

5.1 surround over stereo speakers

• Normalizes the volume level of your music collection with Smart Volume

Normalization (SVN) effect

• Provides Analog Loopback Transformation (ALT) technology for high-quality

(118dB SNR) accelerated analog recording

• Supports MP3 and WMA encoding formats for 128~320Kbps data rates

(Windows Media Player 10 or later version and MP3, WMA codecs are

required)

• Supports transformation speed up to a maximum of 40 times of the normal

playback speed (High Speed mode). (The maximum speed is just for your

reference because it’s related to your PC’s performance and the sound effects

you choose to add. Using ALT recording technology will be limited up to 2X

speed on Windows XP. On Vista, the speed will be currently limited to normal

1X all the time.)

• As of this writing, iTunes is not available for Windows Vista. As a result,

converting iTunes music on Vista is not supported.

• If you are going to convert copyright protected music with ALT, you must

have valid and legal right to access and play the content. PMP is just a

software tool to record the playback analog output signal. Please be careful

to abide by the agreement with your content provider.

Before you use PMP software, make sure the following items have been

completed:

1. Xonar D2X Audio Card has been installed in your PC.

2. The Xonar D2X driver has been installed (Xonar D2X audio converter driver

is installed for PMP utility)

3. Windows Media Player Ver. 10 or above has been installed on your PC (If it

hasn’t, Xonar D2X installer will provide a guide to downloading WMP 10)
