Enhanced Audio
The CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card is an external USB DAC and amp designed to enhance your gaming audio. With 24-bit / 192kHz playback, you can enjoy detailed soundscapes whether you’re gaming, listening to music, or watching the latest bingeworthy series.
For an immersive experience, the CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card supports both discrete and virtual 7.1 surround sound. This enables you to game with spatial soundscapes when using either speakers or headsets, so you never miss an audio cue! You can enhance this further, thanks to SXFI BATTLE and Scout Mode technologies. These amplify in-game sounds and provide depth to your audio for an impressive advantage over your foes.
The CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card is designed to drive headphones with an impedance from 32Ω up to 600Ω. Harnessing powerful Super X-Fi Headphone Holography technology, you can experience audio as if it were over multiple speakers on your headphones.
Clear Comms
There is a dedicated audio jack for microphones on the CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card. This is paired with CrystalVoice technology to ensure you always have crystal-clear comms, whether you’re gaming, streaming, or recording. This harnesses a suite of features to remove echoes, automatically adjust volume, and equalise tone for clarity.
What’s more, NoiseClean provides two-way noise cancellation, removing unwanted noise from both ends of a call. No more being distracted by background noise! This detects static background noise and suppresses it, without distorting vocals or dialogue. With VoiceDetect, muting your microphone is automatic. Simply speak and the voice detection capabilities will unmute your microphone, for an easy, hands-free experience.
Connectivity
To enhance compatibility, the CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card is equipped with an array of connectivity options. In the front, you have easy access ports for audio peripherals. At the back, there are line outs, an optical-out, and a USB-C port. As a result, you can use this sound card with speakers, a gaming PC, TV, consoles, and even Blu-ray players.
Control at Your Fingertips
The CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card has all the buttons you need for on-the-fly control. The central dial can be used for adjusting volume, offering smooth control over your sound. What’s more, this can be used to balance levels across two audio sources when the Audio Bal button is active, allowing you to get the right levels between game sound and chat.
For advanced control, the CREATIVE Sound Blaster X4 Sound Card can be customised via the Creative app. This provides access to EQs, mixers, all the audio modes, and so much more.
