yup actually this kind of topic have been discussed before but if i am not mistaken the thread was about sofmodding from Live/Audigy to Audigy 2 only and i have tried it before and it worked well with one of my SB Creative card.I tried it with Audigy ES not LS .After Audigy 2 ZS went out to the market, from my opinion maybe it can be upgraded to ZS application using the same method that i used to softmoded A1 to A2 until i came across with the same article that u pinpoint and tried the method as explain in Driverheaven and guess what? this method work well with my Audigy ES.All the Audigy 2 ZS application works well with the ES card.Not much improvement with the old normal Audigy 2 driver.But i realised the bass sound better.But please take note ,although you sucessfully managed softmodded your card,it still lacks certains functions that the original Audigy 2 ZS have.But it worth a try coz the improvement is noticeble compared using the default driver for each card.Just my 2 cents.btw here's the screenshot.
