Hey, I want an overall better audio quality. I mostly play games or listen to music, but do none of audio engineering and stuff

I got realtek ALC887 as my default audio of my motherboard (no dedicated sound card), and have Sennheiser HD 407 headsets. Any suggestions on what to enable and what not?
Try any sound solution, it will be fine I guess, personally I always used Dolby Atmos and no other, I am very happy with it. It has a dynamic mode that analyses what you're playing and optimises the sound output, Movie, Music, Voice and Video Game modes, plus a manual mode with 10-band EQ with activatable effects Surround Virtualiser, Dialogue Enhancer and Volume Adjuster.

EDIT: well, actually
Realtek ASIO crashes for me as soon as I play something
FL Studio ASIO just works from spdif
ASIO4ALL v2 needed some settings tweak to use spdif


( https://www.asio4all.org )

I dont really use ASIO for aimp :p
But thats what is recommended when you are looking for low latency

How is ASIO4ALL to launch?

Edit: I think there was a misconception. I wasn't talking about actual high bitrate audio or something,
I was talking about the extra "Microphone Effects" feature that includes "High Quality Record".

This was what I'm talking about:
(has the same layout in UWP panel as well, but I'm not using it because it doesn't automatically switch to headphones and turn off speakers.)
View attachment 180049

In newer versions, only the "Acoustic Echo Cancellation" and "Noice Cancellation" is present.
Uni-directional, omni-directional, enhance voice recognition, high quality record are not present.
Everything about fixing this issue is now lost because the previous repositories of AAF is removed, including the issue pages.
Please make it available or at least publish the information I posted on the issue #65.

Hello, what if you deactivate your antivirus for a moment? Maybe it is causing the problem.
You can also try deleting the %temp% folder and try again.

Sounds like there is an error in the windows registry, corrupt installation of system files.

Try installing the AIO Repack for latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes:

Download the zip and extract it, install as usual, don't worry, it's reliable source.
Restart your PC and try again.

I look forward to your reply.

Hm that's strange. Are you sure you have everything updated? That could take a while depending on how much there is to update.

I can't think of anything else for now, other than trying to repair Windows, use your latest build and install all the C++ redistributables. A harder solution would be to reinstall Windows. It takes a bit of time and a bit of effort, but it's worth it. It's up to you.

Could you also show screenshots of the CMD commands you used? A detailed system log would also be nice, like the one AIDA64 comes with, you can generate a .txt or .html with all the information.

Is there anyway for me to install or get access to the realtec audio manager or console that enables you to put the front speakers to the settings "Extreme" you know the thing that boosts the audio? Thats the only thing i need, i get it with this driver install when it worked but if i install regular realtec i dont have that. Is there a way for me to use the same function with regular realtec drivers?

ATTENTION: You will need to uninstall the currently installed version before continuing with this installation. A condition has been imposed for this due to problems reported by some users.

ATTENTION: Before installing this modified driver, be sure to remove any and all residues from previous Realtek audio drivers or even if there are residues from previous versions of my mods, if they persist. For this you will need the DriverStoreExplorer (by @lostindark). Remove any drivers whose vendor is "Realtek", "A-Volute", "Dolby", "DTS", "Creative", "AAF Optimus", etc in the Sound, Video and Game Controllers, Extensions, Software Components and Audio Processing Objects categories.

Those who want only Realtek material, just choose the panel option (HDA or UAD) and deselect the rest.

I'm having issues with the latest version:
Firstly, both Dolby Atmos for Gaming and DTS:X Ultra wouldn't install, I had to uninstall and reinstall it three times for it to work.
Now I'm unable to use the Realtek Audio Console, it tries to load only to show an error message saying "Can not connect to RPC Service."
Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

How one changes Speaker Out to Headphone without Realtek HD Audio Manager?

Installed latest AAFOptimusDCHAudioPack.exe version but find it useless without an option to change to Headphone.

Seems like something is broken in my WIN10 -> Realtek Audio Console is not starting.
Managed to solve the situation by launching Driver64\RealtekSwcHDAHsa\HSA\RAVCpl64.exe from an older installation package.

Hi, @AAF Optimus, how are the integrated Encoders (DDL/DTS) to use? "Self-Answer" to me: it must be selected by the Tweak-Tool, right?
