I have a problem with equalizer APO. I use windows 11 and microphone Fifine AM8. When i turn on my mic in equalizer apo device selector and reboot pc my mic has no sound coming from it
Did this Fifine AM8 come with its own software you needed to install?
i dont use any software but ecualizer

Are you familiar with the troubleshooting options for an audio device in the Device Selector? These options are accessed by selecting your Fifine AM8 and checking the 'Troubleshooting options' checkboxes. Usually the 2 'Use original APO' checkboxes are greyed out, meaning there aren't any. But if they are available uncheck both and click the 'Ok' button to apply this change.
If there still isn't any sound then try the remaining 2 APO techniques available in the 'Install as' dropdown box. Note that each change you have to click the 'Ok' button. Unfortunately, the developer hasn't implemented an 'Apply' button.
chatgpt said me that i have to use vb cable, i downloaded that but it has no sound, how with apo installed or not
If you can't get Equalizer APO to work on your mic then VB-Cable by VB-Audio might offer a solution by installing Equalizer APO on this VB-Cable and redirect your mic input through this cable. But I'm not an expert on this. Usually one installs Voicemeeter (also by VB-Audio) and installs and uses Equalizer APO on one of its virtual devices A1 to A5. These devices are fully supported by Equalizer APO, that is when the VoicemeeterClient.exe of Equalizer APO is running. Unfortunely I'm also not an expert in Voicemeeter but there Youtube tutorials specific on setting up a mic with Voicemeeter and Equalizer APO.
ok thank you i will try
Good luck, Amir.
done, my mic is working but apo doesnt work, no changes at all
Just to be sure that Equalizer APO can't work, uncheck the exclusive mode checkboxes as shown in the attached image. Some recording/streaming apps want to have exclusive access to a mic so no other app is able to record/stream. But that bypasses any Audio Processing Object (read sound enhancement) like Equalizer APO.
thats already on, i mic wont work because it uses usb, chatgpt said apo doesnt support usb and i should use vb cable, which did not help me

I'm not fond of using AI (llm's). In this case ChatGPT is plain wrong. Equalizer APO like any audio processing object works on USB audio devices. However, some devices like your Fifine AM8 aren't playing nice. This could be due to several issues but not what ChatGPT said in this case.
