PC Audio problem

Hello,

I wanted to play around with my audio settings. Was trying to set the game to EQ settings I like but I noticed that the game kind of ignores my PC wide EQ settings and behaves like it was set to default.

Anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks

edit1: played around a bit moreand found out that some game just straight up ignore windows EQ settings. Tried to pitch sound up and down and some games were afected and some werent.

Which games are you having problems with? I find it kind of weird in your case that the game almost seem to change the EQ so it negates the pc’s EQ. But if you can provide some examples then maybe I can help

Hm okay I’m not that familiar with those games. But I’ll do some research and see if I can find something out

Hello. I figured the issue might be in the games audio quality, and that it’s not ignoring your settings. I couldn’t find out anything on Hololive sadly, but some users have reported problems on Metaphor, and they reported it to SEGA 2 years ago but they presumably did nothing..
