Hello,
Firstly, I think I am supposed to post here first? Not entirely sure, but I believe that is what the message said.
So I am looking into getting the ASUS XONAR ESSENCE STX II 7.1 for my workstation. However, I had read on one of the forums that there can be a problem with internal sound coming through the card. So I am wondering if I should run sound through my motherboard sound card or use an external AMP/DAC to my headphone and sound system?
Please note:
- I am aware of the double amp situation with the STX II 7.1 to an external amp, I was thinking if there is a work around or another method.
- It is important to note that I will be doing work on this computer in post production sound, so I am going to be running a separate Pro Tools HD system on the same computer. The STX II 7.1 and external AMP/DAC is more for playback for game and movie projects.
Thanks,
