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).

Firstly thanks MoKiChU for all your efforts!

I just did a full reinstall. Nothing was wrong, I was just 6-12 months out of date so I wanted to update.

Everything worked fine except one thing. When I click on "Install" for "Sonic Studio 3" at https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9n81c41dq5sj, the Microsoft Store app opens on my PC, but the "Install" button does not do anything. I click it, but literally nothing happens and the app is not queued or downloaded.

I can install other apps fine (including DTS Sound Unbound and Sonic Radar III) but Sonic Studio 3 will not install.

The "Sonic Suite Companion" takes me to the same place but still nothing happens.

A reboot does not fix this.

Also a "wsreset" did not help.

Also, an unrelated issue - in a 2 speaker setup (connected to the green connector) when I do the left/right channel test in Realtek Audio Console, I hear both channels through both speakers, even though a YouTube audio test (and a Windows control panel audio test) seem fine.


Hi,

- If your issue occurring with drivers from your motherboard support page (and therefore that it is not specific to the drivers that I propose) : Open a ticket with ASUS Support.
- If your issue didn't occurring with drivers from your motherboard support page : CLEANUP process then install/use the drivers package from your motherboard support page.

Thank you for both your replies! 🙂

Both problems are fixed after following your instructions.

EDIT: Ugh, one last problem. Now the DTS app says I am not licensed and need to buy it (no way haha)

Hmm. Very odd. DTS was "licensed" until I followed this process. Now everything is fine, except the DTS app, which says that I need to pay to enable DTS.

Hi MoKiChU.

Currently I am using TUF Gaming X570 Plus WiFi, I found that my mic sound is very small and sometimes does not receive any sound, I have tried on the Back Audio Port and also the Front Panel but the result is the same. For Audio on my headphones still works normally, only the microphone has the problem, I have tried two headphones but the result is same.

I am not sure which Audio Driver I should use. My OS is Windows 10 Pro 21H2 Build 19044.1415
Thank you very much

Hi everyone,

@ Who report issues (last warning) : I remind you that I do not work for ASUS :

- If your issue occurring with drivers from your motherboard support page (and therefore that it is not specific to the drivers that I propose) : Open a ticket with ASUS Support.
- If your issue didn't occurring with drivers from your motherboard support page : CLEANUP process then install/use the drivers package from your motherboard support page.

Thank you Mokichu for maintaining these drivers. I initially installed your package last November
AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG_SS3_MB_v6.0.9047.1 on an ASUS ROG Maximus Hero XII Wifi mobo.
I did not install Sonic Studio, Sonic Radar or the Realtek Audio Control/Console and all was well.
I decided to update with your latest package
AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG_SS3_MB_v6.0.9175.1
as per the instructions on the first post. I did not do a cleanup but rather just ran install.cmd as admin.
It ran kind of weirdly- it paused for 5 min after the first line of the PNP utility with this:
HDXASUS.inf
and then it said it failed at that
but then all the other packages seemed to install

I rebooted and I had sound. I tried to get the Realtek Audio control from the microsoft store but that fails.

It just does not download.

I went to old style control panel and opened up sound to try and set my sound to 5.1 (since I have that setup connected to the three minijacks on the back of the motherboard)
I noticed there were were options for a variety of speaker setups. I selected 5.1

Am I missing much by not getting the Realtek Audio control panel?

Hi,

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

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) 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.
