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).

maybe someone can help me? I use Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero (WI-FI) and try to install """Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) Drivers : 6.0.9079.1 WHQL [08/12/2020]""" and have problem - after installing this driver I can't hear any sound from my PC, when reinstall to MS provided one - sound works fine but Realtek Console / SS etc not working - I see error message "Realtek Audio Console doesn't support for this machine".
Before install I manually deleted all related to realtek software and drivers - maybe anybody see this problem at own PC ? windows 10 20H2 19042.685


Like MokiChu says, you need to follow the Clean Up instructions in his first post, which is more than just uninstalling stuff from Add/Remove Programs. Scrupulously means go through those Clean Up step one by one, in order, and slowly and carefully. This will break the link b/t your MB and the specific Asus Realtek drivers provided initially and you can then use the public Realtek drives MokiChu provides here.

Thx for the driver update MoKiChU!

Thank you @MoKiChU. STAY WELL!

//solved: fix: retry entire process XD. ❤️ to MoKiChU

Hi,

x470-F here, thank you for the drivers. Awesome. but..

Sonic Radar does not want to work, it opens, but it cannot detect audio (no error messages just.. nothing happening when testing).

This was after following the clean/install procedure, installing UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB
Drivers : 6.0.9091.1, and installing the Realtek Audio Control/Console, Sonic Studio III, and Sonic Radar III via the MS Store.

Anyone got a lead to fix this?

Thank you.

I noticed after performing a clean uninstall and install of these audio drivers packaged with DTSX Ultra/DTS SU Extension Driver - 1.1.69 that I no longer get the following two Software Components in Device Manager:

DTS APO4x Service Component
DTS Audio Effects Component

I notice that the ASUS1043ROG directory only has one file in the 1.1.69 version, whereas in previous version, the directory had multiple files.
Digging into the dtsapo4ultraAsusextensionpkg.inf file for comparison, I noticed the following entries in previous versions:

[ASUS1043ROG]
CopyFiles = ASUS1043ROG.CopyList
AddReg = PresetAddReg

[ASUS1043ROG.Components]
AddComponent = DTSAPO,,DTSAPO_Install
AddComponent = DTSService,,DTSService_Install


Whereas the latest version only had this:

[ASUS1043ROG]
CopyFiles = ASUS1043ROG.CopyList



Was this intentional?


Hi,

Thank you for your feedback and for this pertinent question which gives a good idea of your curiosity.

Indeed, these 2 SWC drivers are no longer intentionally used by the DTS team concerning DTS Sound Unbound only because the modules of these 2 SWC drivers, and the profiles of the Extension drivers are now contained in the package of the DTS Sound Unbound app (only the user license remains in the Ext drivers) :

Before :

- Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) :

Third Party Drivers :

SS3|SSVM Extension Driver
SS3|SSVM VAD Media Driver
SS3 APO SoftwareComponent Driver
DTSX Ultra/DTS SU Extension Driver
DTS APO4x Service SoftwareComponent Driver
DTS APO4x Core SoftwareComponent|SoftwareDevice Driver


Now :

- Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) :

Third Party Drivers :

SS3|SSVM Extension Driver
SS3|SSVM VAD Media Driver
SS3 APO SoftwareComponent Driver
DTSX Ultra/DTS SU Extension Driver



Note : This therefore does not concern DTS:X Ultra which still use these 2 SWC (APO & Service) drivers, the profiles of the Ext drivers as well as the HSA SWC drivers.

I find this level of detail about how the drivers work fascinating. I don't have a DTS mb so it doesn't apply to me, but for those who do, does this change mean they should do a full clean driver uninstall prior to this update, or does the driver installation for new organization handle it? I presume you would see absent entries in Device Mgr if you turned on Show Hidden Entries, and could then delete them all?

Hi,

Thank you for raising this point.


@ ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards users : Due to a major change in the operation of the DTS Sound Unbound Third Party Drivers, re-download your drivers package & 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.

Even if using the UPDATE process does not interfere with the operation of the drivers (if you are used to cleaning your old drivers via Driver Store Explorer, the APO and Service SWC device should be hidden in your Device Manager, if you are not used to cleaning your old drivers via Driver Store Explorer, APOs and Service SWC device should be visible but not used), I recommend doing a CLEANUP in order to reset on a healthy basis. So :

I like running a tight, clean ship so I frequently clean out DriverStore and frequently go inot Device Mgr and delete hidden device not present that I know I don't need so I would be first to clean again scrupulously. I don't have a DTS mb like I said before so doesn't apply. However, everything must be working fine your "customers" upgrading their DTS mb's here, otherwise, you know they would be 100's of people complaining that these drivers they think you yourself wrote the code for (lol) aren't working anymore.
