I guess if music is a hobby, that would be my #1 hobby. I listen to it constantly and almost couldn't live without the tunes.

It's ALL rock and roll from the 60's to current. Don't do any Lady Gaga type crap at all. Currently at a hair over 6,000 cd's, along with XM radio in house and in one out of 2 vehicles.

Usually working and/or playing on a computer or 3 while jamming!! :yes:

Music mostly. I play guitar, mostly just messing around with riffs and jotting down song ideas. I want to get into composing some electronic stuff, but I have no idea where to start.

Download FL studio or something easy to start with, then just look up basics of electronic music.... it's basicly just 4/4 loops, if you play the guitar, it can't be very hard for you to start

That's my hobby btw, producing electro music

if anyone is interested in listening:

Man, I wish I had time for hobbies lol. Work 10 hours a day, 2 dogs to take care of, on call the other hours I'm not working, and a new Girl Friend to boot.... My hobbies now are watching or gaming on whatever I can for the precious hour or so I have free during the week.

Used to go hiking, to music venues, and reading... maybe I can get some more free time soon.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Jaybonaut · Posted

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By cleverclogs · Posted

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
