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).

first of all, i would like to thank you very much for what you r doing for us, it's really awesome work, you saved my day after spending days searching for a proper driver to make my sonic studio working again on my x570-e board! really appreciate your effort!

second, I'm not an audiophile and i don't even know if i'm asking in the right place or not but feel free to guide me or skip the question.
i use a headphone bose qc35 and i have DTS sound unbound installed and active, should i enable sonic studio 3 upmix /surround also with spatial sound DTS Headphone X or do i have to choose between them, as there's no to very little info on the web regarding those settings

if any one can tell me more info regarding them, i would be very grateful.

thank you again,

Have A Nice Day!

Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound Intel motherboard with ALC408x codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS Intel MB) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (MB | Intel 5xx & AMD TRX40)

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.

Awesome thanks for clearing that up !!!!!

I did the CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, and now I have no information about version installed.

Any guess?

Looks like it's getting it's values from the registry. Perhaps the original ASUS driver you installed before using these drivers? The "AsusSetup" program makes keys in the registry when installing applications for the purposes of Asus LiveUpdate. Use the Realtek Audio Console to check installed version or Windows Device Manager.

MoKiChU has already explained that he only provides the Drivers ONLY. If you install from the Asus support page or through Armoury Crate then it install an Uninstaller and other unnecessary junk which adds registry entries that Armoury Crate uses to determine the versions that you have installed. To me, when it comes to Realtek, a driver only approach is much cleaner than the extra junk that is installed through an installer.

Microsoft store updates console with this one

Hi MoKiChU, thx as always for your Realtek driver updates...

I am now running v6.0.9191.1 no issues to report..

Hello to everyone.

I'm having an interesting Driver issue.
My Motherboard Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero.
I did a clean install of the system. I have installed all the drivers in order.

Sonic Studio 3, the sound software of my motherboard, was also installed without any problems.
I even recorded a sound profile that I created myself.
But after a few days of installation, Sonic Studio 3 would not open.
When I click to open the application interface, I get the warning "sonic studio 3 the current system is not supported".

When I completely remove and reinstall the sound card, the problem goes away. I don't think the problem is hardware. Sound Card software seems to be incompatible with Windows 10 21H2.

What would you suggest I do?
Should I turn off the automatic update of the sound card?

How to solve this problem?

Many drivers were shared on the first page, but I did not know which one to install.
I would be glad if you help.

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
- Use this SS3 Cleaner tool (Right click on "A-Volute_SS3_Cleanup.exe" > Run as administrator) then restart your PC
- Follow scrupulously your INSTALL process.

For the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow the UPDATE process.

Then I will install the driver you shared.
Of course, I will remove the current driver as you said for a clean install first.
Is it possible for me to have problems after all these procedures?

I'm having a similar problem in Armory Crate.
When Armory Create upgraded, it also caused some problems.
It starts without problems, but sometimes I get a "services could not be installed" warning at startup.

I guess asus does not adapt these softwares to the new windows update when new windows updates come.
