OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME/ProArt motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/8xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME/ProArt motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx/8xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).

Note : In order to know which drivers package to use, match the audio specifications of your motherboard with the apps or ask me.


TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you experience crackling, popping, audio stutter
Disable hibernation (Fast Startup included).

Hello,
Since two days the effects of Sonic studio aren't working anymore. Until now I couldn't get them back. I already deinstalled and reinstalled the drivers and Sonic studio 3 - no success. Hope someone can help me with this. I am using Windows 11 - my Mainboard is X470-F Gaming.
My last choice wood be a new installation of Windows. But without knowing how to solve that problem it seem to be likely to run into this issue again.


Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG SS3 motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB) from the first post of this thread.

- Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process.
- Use this SS3 Cleaner tool (Right click on "A-Volute_SS3_Cleanup.exe" > Run as administrator) then restart your PC.
- Follow scrupulously your INSTALL process.
- For the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.



Also, check that the Enhance audio/Signal Enhancements setting is enabled (otherwise your audio effects will not work) :

Windows 11

Right click on sound icon tray > Audio settings > Click on your audio output/input devices to enter in their Properties :



Windows 10

Right click on sound icon tray > Sound > Playback/Recording tab > Click on your audio playback/recording devices > Properties > Advanced tab :

That does seem strange that it would of been removed.

I suggest you follow the cleanup instructions and do a clean install.


Unfortunately it seems to have been removed, already tried the full clean-up and it's simply there on older drivers but not on the newer ones. It's a very niche feature so I'm not surprised, I just hope that it was done for an important reason and not just a careless shrug.

No complaints to Mokichu though, just for clarity. I get that Realtek makes these drivers and to be honest I have no idea where I'd even begin to leave a comment on a thing like this.

I'll eventually get an external audio interface that will render this obsolete, but it's a surprisingly killer feature to have directly on the motherboard for anyone getting into podcasting, streaming, etc. The older drivers work fine though and with something like audio it's not like a GPU driver where you can't necessarily just go without updates.

All in all, I wanted to make sure it was known and that I wasn't having a weird error on my end and to not just shrug and assume it gone only to find out that there was an easy fix had I only asked, you know?

Cheers though, appreciate it 🙂

I too find the posts about supposedly hearing differences in audio quality frequency response for each new driver funny. Your not hearing better bass or stronger midrange or anything else b/t driver releases. That's your speakers, not the drivers.

And I'll echo previous post -- MokiChu knows what's he doing and has a solid process for packaging latest Realtek drivers for easy install. Let him do his thing. I sure as hell wouldn't install anything that didn't come from MokiChu.

but i get differences. my speaker same speaker. i try 9301.1 is balanced better. but i install new one 9305.1 i get huge difference bass is no more. so low. high-pitched voices and speech sounds are too prominent

my equalizer is default. i change nothing.
this is the first time this driver has happened to me, such a situation does not happen when I install the previous one.

@Deniz Might be because 9301 is for all OEM while 9305 originally only Fujitsu?

idk maybe, I personally never hear difference

hello

how i know oem or fujitsu?
Where can I look for this information?

9301 was originally from asrock, so that was my bad. And anyways what mokichu does to make driver work on asus doesn't "ruin the driver"

9301 was originally from asrock before being on microsoft catalog, so that was my bad. And anyways what mokichu does to make driver work on asus doesn't "ruin the driver"

Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard with ALC408x codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (MB | Intel 5xx/6xx & AMD 5xx/6xx/TRX40).

Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.
