Fix bad quality

  • If the sound is choppy or “Robotic” we need to elevate the Windows AudioDg proccess in Windows

  • In SoundWarZ select Fix Audiodg in the Plugins menu

Audiodg fix
  • SoundWarZ will request administrative privledges and run a Powershell command to elevate the Audiodg process

(Get-Process audiodg).ProcessorAffinity = 1; (Get-Process audiodg).PriorityClass = 'High'

Audiodg success
  • If successfull the program will now exit

Attention

  • If this fixed your issue you will need to do this every time your computer restarts
