What happened is I went to Asus website to download previous version on advice of Woode and I noticed that the size of the latest drivers changed from 95mb to about 160mb.


I feel dumb, but what am I missing? What do I need to do to get Realtek Audio Manager installed?ĮDIT: Well, I got my realtek audio panel. My motherboard is Asus X470-F Strix and I have latest Audio drivers. I went to search on my PC and I can't find Realtek Audio Manager. When watching youtube videos I saw people using Realtek HD Audio Manager that had "noise suppression" feature in the microphone section. I plugged it into my motherboard, it works better than webcam, but there is still some background noise hiss that I'd like to get rid of. This week I finally got an actual microphone that terminates in 3.5mm jack. Toggle between the two settings to choose which device playing which audio output all right inside the PC without physically unplug or plug-in the aux cable from the front panel of your desktop tower.I've been using webcam microphone up until recently for my communications. Select the latter, if you want the speaker from the back panel to play audio while the front headphone is also playing. Under the Playback Device options, you can choose between “ Mute the rear output device, when a front headphone plugged in” or “ Make front and rear output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously“.

How To Switch Between Headphone vs Desktop Speaker Audio Meaning, when you choose the playback device from the Windows audio “ Select playback device” it is under “Speaker” for one audio stream among other audio outputs depends on your device’s capabilities such as Digital Output (Optical) and HDMI Output.This begs the question if that’s one audio stream, how to switch and choose which output to play the sound without physically plugin and unplug the aux cable every time when you want to switch to a different audio playback device. In Windows, Realtek considers both the Back Panel and Front Panel’s analog audio output to be the same audio stream. If you have a traditional desktop tower chances are your motherboard relays on Realtek’s driver to output sound to external speakers and headphones. Realtek is the biggest audio driver provider for PC.
