Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG motherboards with Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets with ALC40xx codec.

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 follow the whole instructions from clean up processes, installing.

Was hoping this would either solve one of my game crashing during launch up but it didnt seem to resolve it. (Games like Deep Rock Galatic) It seems to dislike SS3 or Nahimic Service running. (cause when i disable it, it doesnt crash when i launch the game)

Interesting. At least you have them working, even if they do not like your game. Getting them installed at all, it seems, is a major achievement lol

Thank you.

Hey All,
New here, already done some extensive searching + support ticket to Asus, but with no success there, so here I go.

Motherboard: ROG STRIX Z790-I GAMING WIFI
Audio: done by ROG Strix Hive
Issue: not possible to enable microphone listnening (loopback) in a usefull manner:
- when done via Windows settings (Sound - Recording - Microphone (Realtek USB Audio) - Listen - Listen to this device), hundreds of ms delay present
(what is common from what I've experienced)
- not possible to enable it in Realtek Audio Console (ROG branded) as setting is missing from the UI
- no other Realtek control panel available

Already on drivers 6.3.9600.2347
I can include screenshots, but I think the text above describes it all

Anyone else faced this kind of an issue and found a solution?

Hi,

Since you have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard, you will find this feature in the SS3 app (to be more precise this feature is implemented in 2 modes in SS3 : Direct Monitor for basic use or Virtual Mixer AIMed for streamer/YouTuber) :

Sonic Studio 3 app > RECORD STUDIO tab :

- BASIC MODE > DIRECT MONITOR : ON

or
- VIRTUAL MIXER > VIRTUAL MIXER : ON


From your motherboard overview page wrote:
"SONIC STUDIO VIRTUAL MIXER : Combine audio output from selected apps with audio from the microphone input and stream the compiled mix."

Hey,

Thx for the reply, but even when this feature enabled via SS3, the delay is present to that degree that I can't use it in voicechat of anysort as first I hear my real voice and after XXX ms (could measure that but it's noticable) I hear my voice once again through headset - as the result I start to speak slower and slower to align with what I hear (can't control it).

That's the key of the issue - I forgot to mention that I've already found this option in SS3 and still faced the delay, sorry.

Hi everyone,

"Apps" folder containing Microsoft Store direct shortcuts (without going through your browser) to your apps has been added to all the drivers packages :

Hi, sorry to be dumb, would these driver packages enable a z790 Maximum Extreme to encode system sounds and games as DTS (or DD) and send over SPDIF?
My older ASUS motherboard seemed to have that feature and I am sad it isn't on this board!! 🙂
