Realtek Issue

Dear all,

I have managed to get Realtek HD Audio Manager onto my machine. However, the reverb effects and other effects are entirely missing from the programme and I don't know how to get them back. Do any of you have any idea what the problem is here, and do any of you know how to get these effects back where they belong onto my machine? My audio driver version number is 6.0.1.8287, with the ALC269 audio codec. The installation was conducted on the 15th of December 2019. I am running Windows 10, version 10.0.18362, build 18362, and it is the Home Edition. My processor is an intel i7 model, with a clock speed of 1.80GHz. I have 8GB of memory and 900GB of storage.

Can anyone help me, here?

Thank you, 109.180.39.127 (talk) 19:14, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

You should've probably asked this at the Computing desk. What do you mean by reverb effects? Did you have it set to automatically reverb all sounds? Maybe you're missing the option because you haven't installed the full program or maybe Windows 10 only supports a limited version of it. Did you check that there isn't another piece of software by Realtek that does this sort of thing? 89.172.16.124 (talk) 22:44, 24 December 2019 (UTC)

As far as I know, what I’ve got lacks certain effects. Realtek should normally have the option to choose one of several reverb effects, such as arena, underwater and more. It should also allow me to raise or lower the pitch of sounds by one or two semitones. These effects apply to all audio that is currently being generated, therefore effects are applied live. As far as I know, I have the full Realtek Audio thingy, I deliberately picket the one with the largest file size out of the options I had. Any suggestions?

Yeah that's what I meant. Unfortunately I haven't had Realtek Audio installed for many years now. It might be that they dropped this functionality. Maybe try installing the driver from your motherboard manufacturer website? See [1] 89.172.85.141 (talk) 18:02, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

I went to Medion, my motherboard manufacturer, and downloaded the audio driver, however the effects were still missing. Is there any way to get them back? 109.180.39.127 (talk) 20:23, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
