The Basic Plan is a standard service which includes all Endpoint MixingⓇ features including sound quality enhancement, Z-axis Rendering 3D Sound, and VR support. However, there is certain limitation with the maximum sound quality it can produces, inside the PC sound system something called sample-rate is limited to 48 KHz operating frequency. Which means it is producing 48 KHz for each operating channel. Despite this limitation, sound quality enhancement can still do as much as 20 times better if the right equipment and configurations are being used. This is due to the unique sound stage expansion mechanism introduced by Endpoint MixingⓇ which means it sound much better compare with the standard stereo 44.1 KHz CD playback. Modern sound cards support at least 48 KHz operating frequency, if in doubt please check with sound card manufacturer.
We will provide new service plan in future that supports high sample-rate, up to at least 384 KHz, and user require to use high frequency sound card that support corresponding sample-rate. We will announce new products and services on our website when they are available.

They works the same for EMX, EMX only use 6 channels (or 5.1) for output, but generally speaking 7.1 sound cards are marketed at higher end and built with higher quality sound components and hence better sound than 5.1 sound cards. However, sound quality of a sound card product is solely determined by the individual product make and configurations, therefore please check sound card manufacturer information to make your decision. Sound card is not part of our offer, please check with sound card manufacturer for more details.
Yes external inputs are supported, utilizing the audio input port of the sound card you can get sound from multiple audio sources, but since there are usually only one available input port at the sound card, therefore we suggest to use an external optical audio switch box to support multiple input and easy switch over. Modern audio-visual devices supports optical audio output (or the TOSLINKⓇ standard) so you need an optical audio switch box to switch between input sources. Analog switch box is not recommended. Switch box and alternative sound sources are not included in our offer, please contact respective manufacturer for more information.
