I’m Finally finishing my late 90s pc. But I have a question about the audio. I have a sound blaster live platinum and I would like to somehow have surround sound for my vintage pc if it’s possible. I have 6 Roland ma-12C’s and would love to use them for this project if this can actually work any tips would be very appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to read my question. 😀

If it's the non 5.1 live It'll be similar to what I had in the early 2000's
Plug the speakers and set windows control panel and the create software to surround or whichever matches your speaker setup, I don't think you'll be able to use 6 speakers, just 4

It's a bit more basic then a true 5.1 surround setup for one thing you'll be missing a true sub channel but was good enough for me back in the day
