Yan-X, USB speakers are speakers (+woofer) with a built-in USB soundcard. In windows, this is configured as an USB sound device, and the sound data isn't sent to a PCI or ISA soundcard (analog), but to your USB output, where there's a D/A convertor, which sends the converted analog signal to the speakers.

Greetz, ikke

The problem is to know if it is reconized as an usb device or as a soundcard by windows.

alrea,windows recognises the usb sound device but does atomix?that's my problem.I bought the Yamaha USB speakers cos they give excellent quality sound and room filling bass and work fine except with atomix....any more help appreciated.

I would imagine any sound card (usb or otherwise) would have to be recognised in exactly the same way, for it to work with ANY program. To going into the Sound Card Configuration in AtomixMP3 and see whether your sound card is listed in the drop down box. Make sure it is selected and OK the changes. If it still doesn't work, I would suggest that it's probably not an Atomix problem, but a problem with the configuration (drivers etc) of your USB sound card.

Yeap, I agree. Actually, if it is recognized as a sound device by windows, in wiil be the same for atomix. If it is recognized as an usb device, the Atomix lab would have to program a patch...
