Interesting.

So, in the Settings page, do you see the SoundBlaster card in the Output Device and Input Device selection pulldowns? Previously, REW had no access to the card and Default had to be chosen.

If you are indeed able to select the SoundBlaster card now, then is the Wave Volume and Output Volume and Input Volume not grayed out anymore? Do you have control of these parameters in VISTA?

Well, things aren't great, but I got an input signal. I do get to choose the SoundBlaster card in the Output and Input device pulldowns. However, Wave Volume, Output Volume, and Input Volume are grayed out.

Here's my current issue. When calibrating my sound card, I cant get the output and input any closer together than about 8dB. That's way too far off to be making accurate measurements. I've maxed the input for the SoundBlaster, and maxed the output as well, as REW suggests when you can't adjust with REW itself, but I'm seeing about 8dB of separation. Any suggestions?

Edit: the input volume is too low and can't get high enough in relation to the output volume.
