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 ALC408x).
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC408x).

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).

Not the best place to post my findings, but because some people asked Mokichu on this thread about it i wanted togive an update on the matter of Forza Horizon 4 Crashing because of the nahimic service.

Looks like Nahimic has fixed the issue with Forza horizon 4 and SS3, noted that there is no profile in the application list for forza in SS3 but the game is not crashing, been running it for 30 minutes so far and no crash.

here is the thread on the matter:

Hi everyone,

The Third Party DTS APO4x Service SoftwareComponent Driver have been updated.


Thread, post & drivers package updated.

Thank you as always.
I am with your AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG-PRIME-TUF_MB_v6.0.8960.1.7z at the moment and made a CLEAN INSTALL for installing them as you told me to do so coming from my old drivers, still from you.
I'm with ASUS ROG SS3 motherboards and for future updates you mentioned that I could go directly for the UPDATE process (- Launch "Install_ROG_SS3.cmd" by right-click Run as admin > Automatic restart when install is done)

Is it still the same? Thanks!

Hi,

Since you installed (via CLEANUP process then INSTALL process) one of my Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/PRIME/TUF MB) packages newer than 6.0.8924.1 WHQL, you can of course directly follow your UPDATE process.

Hi MoKiChU,

First off I'd just like to say thank you for graciously offering your time and support to the community and your awesome installer tool. Asus themselves could learn a thing or two from you.

I have a few questions to ask that I'm hoping you or someone else here could maybe help with.

When using ASIO4ALL in my DAW software I can only access 2 of the inputs at any one time. The rest of the inputs remain in use (beyond logic). I have no other software open at the time when this is happening. Do you have any experience with this?

Also are you aware of any way/tool/registry edits to retask more of the audio jacks with this driver. With my previous motherboard I'm pretty sure I could retask all of the audio jacks as line-in ports but I am not able to with this driver/interface.

I have a few more queries but I'll leave it here for now.

(EDIT: Oh yeah, my mobo is Asus x570 ROG STRIX Gaming-E)

Thanks again!

Good to see you again. Welcome. I'm still using the drivers you gave before you left. And since I forgot it for a long time, I ask again motherboard ROG Crosshair VI Hero Which driver should I install? Thank you

Hi,

Thanks again, now everything works fine
I have a slight doubt, it is necessary to install the Install "Sonic Studio III" ?

Thanks

As always, thanks for the driver, no issues to report so far
