However, even if you don’t change any of the pre-sets, it does make a significant difference to the sound. The free version is unbelievably annoying, and doesn’t give you full control of the sliders. You can also change your PC’s sound by installing a program, such as DFX Audio Enhancer 11.4, which provides a lot of effects. You can fine-tune the settings later, or turn off EQ.
Click “Save” and “OK” then enter a filename (eg trebletest) to keep the settings, and see how the changes affect the sound. To start with, all the sliders will be level, but you can move them to reduce the bass and increase the treble. You should now see a set of sliders that change the loudness at different frequency ranges. This is the command to “Change to graphic EQ”. Look to the right of this box, skip the Reset button, and click on the rectangular button that shows a tiny screen. The bottom half of this page offers an equalizer to adjust the different frequencies in the sound, though it will probably be set to “”. When Realtek starts, check that the speaker configuration is set to stereo, then select the tab marked “Sound Effects”. When Realtek HD Audio Manager comes up, click the name to run it. To run it, click the Start button and type Realtek in the search box. You should therefore have Realtek software bundled with Windows 7. It seems your PC has a Realtek audio chipset on the motherboard – actual sound cards are rare nowadays.
