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).

I did a clean install of Windows. But sonic studio crashes. It won't open.
It crashes even though I did everything as you said.
Is the driver you published compatible with the latest windows updates?
What would you suggest I do?


You may find a fix to this is finding an offline copy of DirectX installer and running it to ensure your DirectX is fully installed. Often, if you have Steam installed, look for your Steamworks Common Redistributable (under tools) and browse the file location you may find them there. Microsoft doesn't provide them on their site anymore sadly.

Hey!

Decided to go with clean Win11 install and used Driver Store Explorer to remove all pre-installed drivers out of the new system.

Issue is - the new 9238 driver gives me sound cutting out issue on Win11 - happens with both system and various application sounds quite frequently.
Installed Win10 - no repro.

Mobo - z390 Maximus Hero.

Could someone please share if you've encountered something similar and if yes, is there something I can try to do to fix it?

Many thanks in advance!

I've gone with a clean install of Windows 11 Pro, did the driver store explorer, SS3 Cleaner, even Display Driver Uninstaller's Realtek cleanup with Driver Store Explorer to ensure everything was gone then followed up to ensure all folders were gone too (all while in safe mode). Then reinstalled latest ROG SS3 with DTS drivers for my system, Rog Strix x570-F Gaming. Windows 11 Pro immediately found and installed from the Microsoft Store Realtek Audio Console and Sonic Studio 3.

Issue having is while watching movies or playing games, random system hang. This only happens while Sonic Studio 3 / SS3 drivers are installed. If I install the realtek drivers without SS3 this issue does not occur, however I lose my surround sound (thanks ASUS!)...

System worked perfect prior to Upgrade to Windows 11 Pro.

Any suggestions?

Nice ones MoKiChU. Thank you:)
9336 are really well balanced sounding, and at first testing, I haven't noticed any noticeable clipping in high or sub woofer range:cool:

Hi,

You are in the wrong thread :

- MB = Motherboards
- NB = Notebooks/Laptops


You have an ASUS ROG Dolby Atmos|ForteMedia notebook, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG Dolby-FM NB) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (NB | Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD Ryzen Mobile).

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.

Hey,

Firstly many thanks to @MoKiChu for the amazing work here.

92900

These drivers seem to sound better than any package I've installed before. I'd like to keep them but I didn't save the zip file, are the older packages archived somewhere? I have Asus X370 board so have been using - UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK MB)
