I'd love to try this, but Electri-Q Posihfopit edition isn't free and isn't cheap either. Is it really needed?

The Posihfopit edition is the free version of Electri-Q, the reason why it's used with RPGWiZaRD's DH presets.

OK, I've made some minor adjustments, extremely happy with the "forward" config now, how neutral the positioning sounds like but still so engaging & fun and added a new preset/made some slight tweaks here and there.
 
Here's also some new Youtube recordings (with Dolby Headphone used):

I think I forgot that I had put dropbox on pause so it wasn't syncing the uploads so I suppose the links haven't worked... oh well should work now. Please let me know if links are broken in the future thanks.

Yea that's the desired sound signature of the "forward" config for maximum engaging & fun sound, my personally preferred sound signature. An intimate listening experience. It's the burning question if I'll enjoy a headphone or not.

It definitely works, and I am thankful that you contributed this to the community. This really brings out some additional character!

I'm a perfectionist though and right now I can't decide whether 1.12 or 1.13 for center channel is better in the channel mixer plugin with this config though, all other values are pretty optimal but yea for my taste/ears/setup at least, at this point I can't decide on a 0.01 difference on one slider haha. xD
 
1.12: Slightly bigger sounding stage
1.13: Slightly more "in-your-face" / engaging sound but somewhat less of a soundstage

A functional paranoid is still functional, so big props to productivity through whatever perspectives exist.

Since "Forward" config was updated I decided to tweak the "Laid-back" one as well and see if I could still find some better results and I think I managed to get it significantly improved, at least it sounds more natural and very usable with many different genres or songs, I have a hard time saying many times which of the configs I prefer, it depends on the song.

Why is it when I use the resampler set to 96hz, the VU meter splits the channels into 5 + 1, but without it it shows only stereo L & R.
 
I prefer what it does to the channel mixer when resampled but it seems to render Dolby Headphone useless.

Yea I think Dolby Headphone supports max 48kHz. I personally use 44.1kHz sample rate as all my music is in that format (you should use what your music is rather than highest possible). Maybe this would be a good thing to point out regarding DH in the starting post haha. xD

Hey, i use foobar when listening to headphones (dt770), earphones (ATH-CKM50) and speakers (MicroLab Solo6C and Wharfedale SW150 sub)  and wondering are there any tweaks you suggest making when listening to each? Should i dissable dolby headphone etc when using speakers??
 
Thanks for your work mate!

 

[RPGWiZaRD]

I don't know what's the case with speakers really as I'm only using headphones. Maybe tomorrow I should give it at least a try how it sounds like on my cheap ancient Logitech X-530 speakers I usually got hooked up to my TV.
