Not working with IDT/DTS soundcard

[Rudolph]

I'm using Toshiba Satellite L50-A-19N laptop which comes with IDT Audio driver and DTS APO.

I have disabled DTS APO service in services.msc, restarted and launched E APO again - didn't work, nothing changed, the same dry and empty sound - sound is so bad on this laptop, that without APO I can't listen to anything. By default I used DTS APO, but it causes lagging and high latency sometimes when I have 30 tabs opened on chrome + 10 youtube tabs, the sound is crackling on headphones..

Here you can see I have enabled audio enchantments

I'm using Peace to configure E APO, the only thing that works is Volume control down below

To get Equalizer APO going you can try a few things.but first confirm that Equalizer APO is active (installed) on Laptop IDT speaker device by checking this in the Configurator of Equalizer APO. If not, install and reboot. If Peace / Equalizer APO isn't working then you can try to use the Trouble options of the Configurator (by clicking on the speakers device).

Btw. Jonas Thedering knows more about these things than I do. Because your IDT driver allows an APO, I guess, Equalizer APO could work to, but sometimes it has proven to be somewhat difficult to get it working. On this discussion forum there are posts which cover this subject.

In Peace the Volume control and peak value meter are a Windows audio feature which isn't related to an APO.
