SOUND settings, my sound settings on G75

[c_man]

OK. Let's see how this might help some of you to understand what I've done.

First at this point I am using VIA 10600a drivers. This is important. I have them from here.


Second, the player migh play an important part so I'll put it as well. I am an old user of KMPlayer and after the team dropped the suport on it to develop PotPlayer, I have that. You can get PotPlayer from here. Do not download the DirectX or whatever it might complain about.

PotPlayer will ask you for a speaker setting. You can choose whatever you want, it can be changed later.





There is also a LFE setting that will give you a bit more low freq.

If other settings are checked in this section, make them to be like mine or test your own to suit your needs.

I find PotPlayer to be a very nice program for music and movies. It has internal codecs, uses full GPU power when needed, is low on system resources, has a ton of options, it's very stable. The bad part with the x64 version is that it will minize to tray everytime.

The VIA Deck settings:

Volume control - I set Bass Filter to 50.



Speaker setting



Default format - programs might use different settings, so I didn't change a thing here.



Sound Equalizer - the part you all want.



Here are the values for them:

60 = +5 - there is hardly any improvement on low freq. with this any higher.
170 = +15 - Sub and speakers both are affected by this.
310 = +5 - higher value will not help sound quality much.
600 = 0
1k = -10 - Sub and speakers both are affected by this, for a Sub a range 'till 1k is quite a lot.
3k = 0
6k = +10
12k = + 15 - Above 12k sound quality on speakers will be poor.
14k = 0
16k = 0

If you have questions, please ask.

I did not change anything in Windows.

how do i change the audio so it comes out in the built in speakers instead of the subwoofer?

The only way I can think is to adjust it through the HD Audio Deck... at least that's how I do it on my VW. Theres a slider for 'Bass Filter' and it seems to work best when it's lowered to about 40% of whatever the speakers are set to.

Using 6.0.10.1900 driver, and working fine on my side.
Actually I'm using headset mostly rather than internal speakers (no equalizer needed), but if I have to use speakers - now the sound is better :cool:
c_man, thanx for this useful post!

I onow the g75 does not have the best sound quality so I was thinking would the sound quality be better if I uninstall the program that comes with the g75 and use micrsofts generic driver and use winamp to equalize the sound would it give me much better sound than the vio driver?

C_Man, you really are THE_Man! I'm a bit of an audiophile as well, so most all these settings were second nature. My problem was after installing Windows 8 Pro my drivers wouldn't reload, thus I couldn't access the VIA Deck. I downloaded what I thought was the most current driver, but turns out it was version 6. Someone lied to me! But, fortunately you provided me with the answer I needed. Even over a year later your assistance is still appreciated!

Probably a stupid question that's already been asked somewhere but do the equalizer settings keep after you've closed VIA HD Audio Deck, do you have to open it at all when you boot or does the equalizer work without having to run the program every time you boot up?

Ignore this post

Hi everyone
Did somebody had sound ticking problem? I have asus g752vy and when I am working something this ticking sound happens randomly.
