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

Thanks!  I thought something had gone wrong.  I'll turn it back off since I don't actually use the feature.  I just didn't know why it was showing up as disabled.

Hello, I have a Asus Tuf Gaming B550M-Plus mobo and there is a lot of "ASUS TUF motherboards" section so which driver should I pick?

Thank you so much for all this effort!

Hi,

You have an ASUS TUF DTS Custom motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Custom) 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.

Hello, already downloaded the driver, this is also a clean install windows so should I still do the clean up process?

Also how do I check my mobo audio specification and what to look for, so incase I change my mobo I would know which driver I would install so I won't bother you next time 😁

Hey just to follow up I follow all the installation proccess but there is no "Realtek Audio Control/Console and DTS Custom" in microsoft store.

Hi,

If I told to new people on my audio drivers threads to follow their CLEANUP process then their INSTALL process, it is in order to start from a clean base, you can directly follow your INSTALL process.

As reminder, you can determine for yourself which drivers package does your motherboard need thanks to these indications :

First, the hardware requirements, in order to be in the right thread :

[DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 5xx/6xx/TRX40)
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG motherboards with Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets with ALC408x codec.
Hardware requirements (AMD - AM4/AM5) : ASUS ROG motherboards with AMD 5xx/6xx series chipsets with ALC408x codec.
Hardware requirements (AMD - sTRX4) : ASUS ROG/PRIME motherboards with AMD TRX40 chipset.


[DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx)
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC408x).
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC408x).


[DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (Intel 6x/7x/8x/9x/1xx & AMD Legacy 6xx/7xx/8xx/9xx)
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 6x/7x/8x/9x/1xx series chipsets.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD Legacy 6xx/7xx/8xx/9xx series chipsets.


Second, the drivers package type :

Note : In order to know which drivers package to use, match the audio specifications of your motherboard with the apps or ask me.
So, if in your motherboards specs you see the words :

- Sonic Studio I : You have an ASUS ROG SS1 motherboard
- Sonic Studio II : You have an ASUS ROG SS2 motherboard
- Sonic Studio III : You have an ASUS ROG SS3 motherboard
- Sonic Studio III & DTS Sound Unbound : You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard
- Sound Blaster X-Fi MB2 : You have an ASUS ROG Sound Blaster X-Fi MB2 motherboard
- DTS:X Ultra : You have an ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS:X Ultra motherboard
- DTS Audio Processing : You have an ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Audio Processing motherboard
- DTS Headphone:X v1 : You have an ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Headphone:X v1 motherboard
- DTS Custom : You have an ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Custom motherboard
- DTS Studio Sound : You have an ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS Studio Sound motherboard
- None of the previous words : You have an ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME Realtek motherboard

You probably didn't follow it scrupulously, otherwise you would have read this : Go in "Apps" folder > Install your apps from the Microsoft Store shortcuts.

I finally figured It out, It was called "DTS Sound Unbound" in microsoft store. In the case of "Realtek Audio Control" It can not be search on the actual micosoft store but a little bit of googling fix It. Incase someone can not find It in microsoft store (Reatek Audio Control )

No, DTS Sound Unbound (which is only included with ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards but can be tried/purchased as standalone) has nothing to do with DTS Custom.

For the last time, go in the "Apps" folder from your audio drivers package to install your apps from the Microsoft Store shortcuts (stop persisting in search them in the Microsoft Store, most drivers related apps cannot be found via Microsoft Store search, they can only be found by direct link).
