Description
The Asus Xonar DX sound card is Bpod's primary method for audio stimulus presentation. Its high signal quality and fast sampling rate enable auditory stimulation throughout the range of rodent audition. Bpod's Psychtoolbox Sound Server plugin automatically detects the Xonar DX, and provides a simple interface for loading and triggering sounds during behavior.
The card uses the PCI Express bus, but requires an additional power source to achieve 116dB SNR. ASUS requires an old Molex floppy drive power connector to use the card, but we have you covered - your purchase will include a free adapter to derive this vintage connection from a standard 15-pin SATA connector.
