    I recently downloaded Equalizer APO and Peace, but when i installed equalizer apo and put it in as my input (my mic) i cant hear anything and i know my microphone is working from my audio interface. ( i have tried to use Sfx/EFX but nothing worked...

    What kind of mic is it? USB or 3.5 inch jack?
    And is Equalizer APO installed (activated) on it? This can be checked in the Configurator.

    Perhaps the "Microphone mono" configuration (available in the Peace configurations list) will get your mic going.

    its a seinheiser mk4 (passed on by my dad) and its xlr to my roland usb audio interface and equalizer is installed onto it, will try mic mono and reinstall.

    Equalizer APO is not only installed on output (Playback) but also on the input (Capture tab)? Sorry for asking it again.

    I've attached the "Microphone mono" configuration. Copy this file to c:\program files\equalizerapo\config and restart Peace.

    There are several other things you can do to get your mic going. The Configurator has some other troubleshooting options. And the mic could be used as "exclusive" by an app bypassing Equalizer APO. This behavour is set on the "Advanced" tab of the audio properties of your mic (see image).

    microphone mono does not seem to help i already installed on capture as well.
    i have found that my 1-2 (see image) 1-2 quad capture is the two xlr ports on my audio interface. but one is for out put and one for capturing (my mic), and if i use any one of them and im watching youtube it comes through on equalizer apo. i dont know what to do....

      Probably the first "1-2 QUAD capture" in the device list is the output. The second one is the input (mic) so this one should be available on the Capture tab of the Configurator.

      Peace puts first the output devices in the device list and then the input devices therefore the second must be an input. So this one must be selected for the mic on xlr 2 and the other one when equalizing the output on the xlr 1. This seems logical but I hope it works that way.

      I'm not sure what you're experiencing when you say "it comes through on equalizer apo".

    I will attempt to use the WDM driver in JRiver as the default driver, then within JRiver send the output to either of my DAC's drivers directly as you can see. Will report. If there is another path to accomplishing the same thing please let me know.
