Hello,
I'm trying to get the most accurate sound out of my laptops HP output for recording.
I know this is not an ideal way of mixing but I can't afford buying any gear.
Right now my PC runs BEATS AUDIO which I know is far from ideal.
I came across this article online and was wondering what you guys think.
How To Turn Off Beats
1) Press [Windows] + [X] on your keyboard and go to Device Manager
2) Go to Sound, video and game controllers
3) Click on IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
4) Click on the Driver tab
5) Click on Update Driver
6) Select Browse my computer for driver software
7) Select Let me pick from a list of device driver on my computer
8) Select High Definition Audio Device
9) Read the warning and click Yes if you understand the risk
10) Restart computer
When your computer restarts:
1) Click on the Volume Control (little speaker) on the bottom right of the task bar.
2) Click on Speakers
3) Click on Enhancements tab
4) If you don't know much about audio, and to help prevent speaker, headphone, ear damage, click on the Loudness Equalization and click Settings, then move the slider to 3/5 or 4/5 towards Long, then click on OK and Apply
It was explained that BEATS is holding back the full potential of the IDC Codec in my PC.
Would this be the way to go or should I do something like download the ASIO4all Codec as well?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
