Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME 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).

Hi,

You have an ASUS Realtek motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK) from the first post of this thread.

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.

OK, thank you for the answer and your work.

In the end, I was able to solve the problem by trial and error.

I installed the drivers from the support site, then installed Realtek Audio Consoli and DTS Custom from MS Store. Then I restarted my system and uninstalled DTS Custom. After that, the equalizer appeared in the Realtek Audio panel and muffled sound disappear. So, looks like Windows Update mess up something with DTS Custom.

Hi,

This is intended to work like this for all audio drivers packages type using third party drivers/apps (SS3, DTS ...) : If third party app is installed, the equalization is done via third party app, if third party app is not installed, the equalization is done via Realtek Audio Control/Console app.
