Bluetooth is a separate endpoint on which to apply SoundBlaster apo.

Most of antivirus dectected complied FX Configurator EXE as virus (false postive)
So I provide AutoHotkey script(.ahk) instead of EXE, the icon file is used for .ahk
If you want pin to FX Configurator desktop , copy the "FX Configurator" shortcut in the start menu.

I applied sound blaster to my Bluetooth speaker endpoint still no result in uwp app. All app setting disappeared even though Bluetooth endpoint is selected in fx configurator and I have applied product config to this endpoint. I tried to restart service no result. As soon I disconnect speakers by turning off Bluetooth the app works. App effects work on headphones and if I connect said speakers by cable to laptop jack.

You can apply the sound effect laptop jack (set as default endpoint) than use Stereo Mix loopback the audio to bluetooth speakers

@alanfox2000, how do I reactivate my 2nd Audio Output (Front->Green) on Realtek Audio-Console? I've installed the Driver-Version 8849.1, what you provided on GitHub, after Cleaning with DDU 18.0.2.0.But now I can't find the Way to do so :-(

I finally activated Sound Blaster UWP via PureSoft APO Driver, and other trials all failed, can't acquire how to apply/unlock audio endpoint limitations :(
It is sure that Nahimic UWP and Dolby DS1 are currently the most convenient for ONE-STEP install and enjoy.
Does 3rd-party APO Render registry directly affect audio endpoints so as FX Configurator's applying product settings do?

Hi @alanfox2000

I tried to install the Fortemedia keyword detector APO, all registry configurations seem to be fine. But the APO cannot work, because I don't see it on the audio graph. How can I make it work?

You can find the file RTMICAR_xxxxxx.dat, Samsfpaspk_xxxxxxx.dat, SAMSfPi_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.dat, SAMSfPi_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.dat, SAMSfPpch_xxxxxxx.dat config and for each ID and the files are not readable or open. Both HDA and UAD integrated in Realtek CP. It is very hard to make it work on unsupported PC.


Other APOs for mirocphones have provided similar feature, even better than Fortemedia

IntelliSonic, VIA, Realtek & MS apo & MS: AEC, noise suppression, pick up range

Snipaste_2019-12-15_11-04-24.png


Nahimic 3: static noise suppression, echo cancellation, voice stabilizer, sound tracker

For keyword detection feature, most realtek chipsets have HWID starting with INTELAUDIO may support speech dectation and it need Intel smart sound technology driver installed. You can find almost INFs in UAD AlexaCfgExt folder(driver for Amazon Alexa) only support INTELAUDIO.

I just install without any problems Pal1000 UAD Driver's, but only outputs Stereo and I want Upmix to 5.1 Surround to Creative APO emulate the Surround Sound and working all Speakers. That is, in order to test all Speakers in Realtek Audio Console only outputs sound in Front Speaker. No ouput any Sound in Center, LFE and Rear Channels.
What I should do?
PLEASE HELP ME Guys :)

I read through the two previous posts and eventually landed on this one with the recommendation that this APO is a somewhat click and go approach to enabling DTS and Dolby Digital on Realtek chips.
And that after installing it nothing else would be required.

Yet watching both tutorials and seeing the Audio Enhance files page on google sheets there seems to be quite a bit more involved from Dot Net installs, to miscellaneous files, more audio files.

I just want to enable DDL and DTS over Optical out.

I've been trying all different mods and drivers, which ones should I get in combination for the crispest sound?
Thank you and bless 2020 xoxo
