Open Realtek Audio Manager to access Realtek equalizer. The only function I used and still somewhat miss is the ability to designate each port for something other than intended. I often reset or reinstall windows and each time it's different. I have noticed over the past few years that the functionality has changed drastically. I have to ask what the realtek audio management software does that you need it for. But I do know that when I'm streaming on discord with an external usb dac/amp and an onboard input with a modmic, I get crosstalk which has me believing that part is software based. I don't know if it's an onboard thing or something to do with the wiring after the output/input.
