Thanks for keeping this updated. I'm updating every time you do in hopes that the SPDIF output sporadic dropout will be fixed. Thanks!

Thread updated.

Hi, I have a ROG STRIX TRX40 MB - I usually see an error "Controls the DTS audio processing object" in Reliability Monitor.

I believe I need to update the driver for that? I wonder which one from your links is right for my MB

Thanks!

[Zardoc]

Hi There,

I don't have an SS3 MB but rather a Strix Z590-A Gaming WiFi 6 with the same drivers.

I don't know if you can help but I hear a low boom sound from my base spkr when I boot & Windows is not very fast to boot. Also sound doesn't react immediately.

I installed drivers 6.3.9600. I don't have a 5 channel sound box.. All I have are 2 good spkrs. I just bought this rig for video work but I would like to have reasonable sound. From what I heard the chip does have good sound.

Thanks for the help.

[Zardoc]

Thanks for the quick reply,

Call me stupid but were can I see the SS3|DTS Sound Unbound reference. I will try your suggestion.Thanks

[Zardoc]

Thanks for the heads up. I used DDU to uninstall and removed .INF from driver store.

I figured as much about your warning regarding drivers. I was using the UAD drivers on a Z490M and they worked fine. This board is a new ball game.
I told the boys on Station Drivers that these drivers were for USB sound which is not the same at all.

It would be nice if you would share your updated drivers on Station Drivers (i imagine you know them) .
A lot of peeps would appreciate it (At least I do).

One last question, like I mentioned, I don't have a 5ch spkr system, only 2 good spkrs, but I like good sound .

Do I need :
Sonic Studio III
Sonic Radar III (Optional)
Install DTS Sound Unbound

Will any of these packages (if any) will help with my 2 spkr setup for quality sound?

Thanks again.

OK new problem,

I tried to install Realtek console but got this error



Sorry for the French but it says that windows store ran into a problem.

I rebooted and tried again but no go.

Any suggestions?

[Zardoc]

Hi everyone,

@ ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards users : Due to a major change in the drivers packages architecture, re-download your drivers package (now there is an Intel package if you have a Z590 motherboard or AMD if you have a TRX40 motherboard) & follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.

Thanks for the tip.

I will retry and get back to you.

[Zardoc]

Update,

Everything is perfect! Not much change with equalizer and headset but the sound is very good.

Thanks again for the great support!

Which package do you recommend for the Zenith 2 Extreme?
