2/4/5.1/7.1-channel
* To configure 7.1-channel audio, you have to use an HD front panel audio module and enable the multi-channel audio feature through the audio driver.
You can't use I/O backpanel for 7.1-channel audio output, only till 5.1 multichannel.
Pink jack is only a mono/stereo mic input - not an output.

Or do you have an extra HD front panel audio module?
If yes, please post a foto for further analysis.

@Tanzmusikus

i can use 7.1 on front panel, becuase in driver 9013.1 all speaker works perfectly but the character of sound is too deep
for my setup the best driver by @Alan Finote is realtekdriver_2019_02_25 and realtekdriver_2019_03, because im using 4 speaker on 1 computer (polytron 5.1, sonicgear 5.1, Akari 2.0 and simbadda 2.1)
I combined all the speakers with splitter jack

@Cardepils are all of them working simultaneously? if yes that's a wird setup, I'm not sure if you can really get true surround sound with the front panel

@Cardepils
Thanks for sharing. I think I can't help you with this configuration.
On my setup, when I plug into the front audio panel, I got one stereo mic input and one stereo headphone output - that's it.

I don't know how to combine your front and back panel jacks together as a 7.1 audio system.
And I don't how the two realtek drivers (re)act. I wish you to find the best solution.

It seems Alan's driver is hardcoded to utilize VID/PID of Intel/Realtek devices at the moment so it will not immediately run on NVidia/AMD cards without modification. Waiting for a beta release that we can try out... Fingers crossed!

Also I suppose we need a kind of a visual diagram (Visio?) to show all steps of sound processing and its possible weak points - otherwise we're doomed to catch all kinds of configuration errors without an easy way to diagnose.

@SGZ12
Works perfectly without delay or any problem, im just increase rear and side volume on room correction tab to keep the sound balanced

@Tanzmusikus
To combine my front and back panels im using realtek audio device tweaks to get 7.1 or on realtek option - playback device - and tick "mute rear output device, when a front headphone plugged in"
ok then, thank for your time @Tanzmusikus :toast:
i think im going back to 9013.1 for a while till get the solution..

Wow @Cardepils, that's a hell of a setup I'm seeing ever since :)
Do I get it correctly that you're using analog out from Realtek on the mobo and doubling some channells via the cable splitters? (Like your collection of vape liquids, that surely adds to the depth and dynamics of the sound!)

@DriVE654
Thnakyou my friend!! :rockout: yes some use splitter jack and multi splitter jack to combine the entire speaker
only analogues without any avr/receiver. thanks mate freebase with 6 nic is the best liquid!!

I've been fighting my ASRock Fatal1ty Z270 Gaming K6 motherboard audio for a long while. Tried many different official and unofficial drivers, including the last several AAF versions, but could never get jack detection and upscaling (from stereo sources to fill 5.1 speakers) to work correctly. The Realtek ALC1220 chip seems to have been the culprit. Just installed a Sound Blaster Audigy FX and it's like night and day. All modifiers work, jack detection is perfect, and the 5.1 virtualization (via 3.5mm analog) is lovely. Don't know if it was just mine or if it's a problem endemic to the ALC1220 chipset, but if you have a 1220 and can't get spatializing / upscaling / virtualization working over analog 5.1, it might be tough luck for you! Or maybe it was just mine, I'll never know. But thanks all for the help and suggestions!

Haven't posted in a while. Still using Standard with Creative 720. Also still having the SBconnect issue where it doesn't see whatever it is it supposed to even though its allowed through firewall and there are no less than 4 process running associated. Is it because its a 32 bit program? It seems to run fine after install but if I close the program or reboot my only option is to uninstall AAF package and reinstall. Which I was doing every few days. I just installed an ATI card after having an Nvidia so lots of reboots. Haven't reinstalled. The mewer Microsoft drivers are actually doing a passable job with the audio in Battlefield 5 but that may be DICE's code. But nothing comes close for music. I hoping that I will find a better motherboard I dont think this may ever work right with windows 10 and I found out it has some limitations. Its supposed to run pci3.0 but its actually 2.0. The creative software does make a difference. I am not sure what to get but considering something. Even the headphones can have its own drivers I believe.

@Thelast BrunnenG, mine is Z170G Gaming K4 and it seems it's either the mobo or the chip as I can relate to what you described. I used to have Audigy before but decided not to go for a PCI-E version, instead tried lots of Alan's mods, gradually upgraded from analog to S/PDIF and now to HDMI from AMD card to an AVR which to me seems the best option so far.

Help! I have a bonafide mystery here. Is there a way to see if windows audio is sending LFE signal? I think my sub woofer may have died.

Audigy worked for me, glad you found a solution too!

In WIndows 10, go to control panel / sound / click your speakers / configure / set to 5.1 / click on the sub, do you hear bass / low frequency sound?

Or go to the Fraunhofer sound test page and watch the "HE-AAC Channel ID - With H.264 Video" video, the sub lights up when the video gets to the LFE tone:

Did you try physically connecting it to the left/right channel output instead of a SW output? It should emit at least some sound if it's still functional. Just make sure the output volume isn't too loud.

Just did a nice clean fresh install of Windows 10 on my Samsung Evo 860 SSD and installed the latest DCH version and I must say, lad, you did a smashing job! Everything installed perfectly and everything looks to be working as intended. The issue I was having before turned out to be a complete shit show which was related to windows update(I use insider builds) not working correctly and missing system files and things. So I backed everything up on my HDD and installed fresh on the SSD. Thanks Alan for building such an amazing component for us!

Hello all! I had a problem with my pc and had to reinstall sound drivers. I install AAF pack and it goes well, reboot as requested, but the AAF Optimus Sound does not show on devices or in sound volume.

Any ideas?

ENJOY!!!


Forgive me. There was a problem with the Realtek Console service and I will provide you with a fix quickly. Please do not download this version yet. I will post here when the fix has been released. :( :(


Problem solved. Package released.

It's been 3 days I used the DCH driver version 6.0.9003.1 (HDA panel) on my device OS - Windows 1909. Without giving up on testing, I found the desired sound quality in the above version for my device. The happiest thing is that my ears can now hear the sound quality suround 7.1 on the movie trailers & and my favorite videos on youtube with Dolby quality like in a cinema. :love: :rockout:
In Windows 2004 version I had a lot of problems adjusting the sound quality (maybe because the operating system version is still unstable). Until I decided to downgrade the OS to previous version.

TIA - You are the best.
