SOLUTION to ENABLING ALL drivers including Sub for Stereo output

[XtraArrow]

I just recently bought the asus 7.1 centurion and after buying i realized that the sound was terrible as it only USED the front channel for stereo and not the sub. also for games that doesn't support 5.1 or 7.1 it only uses stereo. Here are the steps

1. download EqualizerAPO and configure it to your headset device on popup.
2. download peace equalizer for equalizerAPO and install.
3. After both of them are installed, run the peaceUI and click on the Effects button on the right hand side
4. When the effects menu pops up turn the "upmix" to on and it will utilize all drivers for stereo

5. IF you want the Subwoofer to work properly, click on "subwoofer" on the right hand side. Navigate to the equalizer and underneath the eqaulizer @ 60hz, click on the filter box and choose "Low Pass Filter"

IF you don't have 60hz, edit the frequencies in the equalizer and change it to 60hz although you can experiment with this as i do NOT know what sounds best for this subwoofer.
Short and quick but let me know what you guys think.

Thank you very much for that great information.

This is the tool I was looking for. With the integrated channel routing sounds from the rear are sounding as they should. The per-channel equalizer is awesome!!!

And with my special adaptor, i do not need the asus box anymore, saved 2 USB Ports and made my integrated 7.1 soundcard useful again...

Glad it worked for you pal, if we could just get the Subwoofer to work for all channels then it would be perfect!

Yeah, you can activate the Subwoofer for all channels by rerouting all channels to the LFE/SUB channel. It is working on my machine and sounds perfect with a proper equalizer setting for that LFE/SUB channel

Thank you, I've edited the OP with brief instructions on how to add a Low pass to make the subwoofer work as it should.

Nice, what I did is disable subwoofer for the front channels as the fronts provide enough bass as it is so I let the subwoofers work for the rear and side as they only have 20mm drivers. On games like pubg that don't support 7.1 the sides and rears just don't sound as they should. This also fixes the tinny issue people were having. I might create a new thread with a profile for pubg that I created.

I don't know if it's me who's doing something wrong, but I can't seem to have any success with the Equalizer APO software. Could you perhaps upload a picture of your equalizer settings and the effects windows? It would be greatly appreciated.

I can help you mate, are you able to elaborate on what you mean when you say the software isn't working for you?
