Open "AAF DCH Optimus Audio - Tweak Tool" on your Desktop and click on "Customized Platform". Fill the VID, PCI VID, Verb VID, DID and SID values with 0 (zero) values. Click "Save" to save the changes, close the program and restart your computer.

Working THX !!

Woop thanks so much that got it working!

what do you suggest is the best setup to use on your installer for newer ASus boards in general? mostly for 5.1 audio over optical

EDIT:
Hi alan mi again the REPACK SOUND BLASTER X-FI MB5 kaspersky detects something and deletes the file, I think that's why it doesn't install with the full installer AAF

I ask because i notice i only get proper 5.1 sound when i use sound blaster 360, with "Blaster Acoustic Engine" enabled, as show in the image As for Nahimic it only gives me Left and Right speaker effects. Realtek Audio Console shows the options for "DTS SOUND EFFECTS" Music And Movie, but clicking those don't seem to do anything soundwise. And the DTS Studio Sound app shows as is in the image, but i cannot click any of the options, beside the settings gear which only shows Default settings and About. Am I using the wrong items to install ? thanks again ^^

Hello Alan, x-fi mb5 works without problems. But still having problems with sound blaster 2 connect in my ALC887, I think this has been happening since the last app update


EDIT: I can confirm that by installing the previous version "SB2 connect 3.2.15.00" of the package AAF 10.6.2329.9384 work again, any chance you can fix this ? thanks

After install SB Connect 2 was working fine, I chose the 360 variant and it
was fine, but after PC restart SB Connect 2 then fails with it saying it can't
detect my device. How to solve this ?, I also did try using the provided
KGA Config file but that doesn't do the trick.

I have also been experiencing this issue, and to me it's tragic because
this issue is recurring over many AAF Mod Driver Versions

Hi, @AAF Optimus, I've got beside my Realtek ALC1220-Chip an USB-Audio-Device from Logitech too, with actually a Generic-USB-Audio-Driver installed. How do I get your USB-Audio-Driver besides the DCH-Driver installed?

Hi. I salute you for your work.
After installing AAF version 10.6.2329.9389 and rebooting the PC in SB Connect 2, the setting of the equalizer changes to "Flat" without applying the preset I customized. If you select my preset in that state, only the name is changed and it is still displayed as a flat graph. If you select another preset and then select my preset again, it will change to your preset normally. There were no problems with the previous version (9384). There seems to be a problem with the SB Connect2 version being changed to 3.4.6.3.

Is it possible to get a new build with APO3 Sonic Studio? The old versions don't work with win11 for me and I prefer to be able to set different settings app specific (for example sound compressor only for a game) instead of setting it globally with APO4.

AAF Optimus is replacing vcruntime140.dll in \system32 with its own version
while this version is signed it will prevent games that use EAC from loading
@AAF Optimus if this is not required please do provide an option to not patch or replace that file

@AAF Optimus - Thanks for the great work. I have an ASUS Maximus X Formula and I am unable to get DTS Connect working through 5.1 analog output. The option does not come under Realtek Audio Console as well as the default output format. Anyway I can enable it?

Hello Alan, I have the same problem

 

[loskoss]

Hello i just switched to linux and miss the functionality and sound quality of these drivers any way to get the same quality in linux and help would be appreciated thanks a lot

Hello everyone,

After using AAF DCH drivers for more than 2 years, I am planning to move to external sound card. After countless days and hours of fiddling with multiple drivers by Alan, I was not able to make DTS Connect (Neo PC) work with analog audio of my Maximus X Formula (Realtek S1220A). While Creative software does offer surround sound, the implementation is not as good compared to DTS connect. I would also like to mention that DTS Connect works flawlessly with my ASUS Maximus VIII Ranger motherboard (ALC1150) through analog jacks with the driver 6.0.1.9219 (no longer available in the repository but I have the file downloaded). This same driver misses out on DTS Connect on Maximus X Formula even if I install that with the same options selected (stock UAD with DTS Interactive Decoder selected). If I install the modded DDL/DTS driver, DTS Connect is shown on the Realtek Audio Console but turning it on and off does not make a difference.
There was one driver with which DTS Connect worked flawlessly on the Maximus X Formula and that is a very old driver from a file named "RealtekDriver_2019_03_01" having 6.0.1.8642 driver that I found somewhere on the Internet. However, possibly due to some other issue, there was very high CPU and memory usage for audio_dg which seems to be a common problem with that driver.

Failing to find a solution to my problem, I am considering moving to external sound card that offers this feature (possibly the Sound Blaster AE5-Plus).
If anyone of you know the solution to the problem I am having, I would greatly appreciate you helping me.
Last but not the least, I would like to thank @AAF Optimus for his hard work and dedication to this project. Without his mods, I would have no idea about how good onboard audio or even PC audio can be. The mods have set a benchmark to the quality of PC audio I would expect and I wish you the very best for your future.

I've been using these drivers for almost 3 years now and had no issues apart from the usual installation errors and whatnot, but recently I upgraded my computer and my new motherboard came with sound drivers that already have a good sound quality and that got me wondering, is there any way to use Sound Blaster/Dolby Atmos/Nahimic without removing those drivers?

I already tried to install the modded driver over the stock ones but unsurprisingly it didn't work, and if I remove them completely it sounds horrible. I also tried to use alanfox's guide but I'm unable to make Nahimic and Dolby Atmos work, I was only able to install Sound Blaster to use in games.

So back to my question, is it possible to have those programs without completely removing my original drivers or not?

Thanks in advance.

Ei Alan, New Drivers : 6.0.9397.1 WHQL

from where exactly (I mean the "source" or site of the 6.0.9397.1 drivers, BetoWender)?

at least pal1000 has a 6.0.9397.1 driver of his own from his github page w/ a separate download for Realtek Audio Console app v1.39.278.0 [but recently there was a 1.39.279.0 version available that I got from the store rg adguard net site]

and Acer has an official 6.0.9397.1 driver from their web site (for an Acer TravelMate P614-52 laptop)

compliment the 9397 drivers with the Realtek Softwarecomponent SWC 11.0.6000.1062 driver pack from MS

nah, you're much better off getting a 3rd party external sound card that offers DTS connect for both encoding & decoding, itsakjt
DTS connect is actually for SPDIF (digital audio) only for most motherboards, not for analog audio

Hello i just switched to linux and miss the functionality and sound quality of these drivers any way to get the same quality in linux and help would be appreciated thanks a lot

no loskoss. maybe check out this realtek alsa driver for linux or ask the alsa folks
Alan F's modded DCH drivers are for Windows only
