Acer Aspire a315-58-33xs No Audio Equalizer Anywhere

ToolPunk

I have double checked that I have the most up to date Acer Realtek Audio Drivers installed and when I go into the Realtek Audio Console there is No Equalizer at all.... When I go into the Windows 11 Advanced Audio settings, there is No "Enhancements" Tab at all, let alone an Equalizer here either.... Why are there no audio equalizers on this laptop? Is this normal?

The main reason why there is no equalizer in the realtek audio console is super simple and it applies to all computers from all manufacturers.

They don't want you to ruin your audio by accidentally turn on multiple equalizers.

So if your computer comes with DTS, Dolby or Waves (or acer purefied voice), those other apps will either have:

1) their own 10 band graphic equalizer or

2) some sort of presets that alters sound already by their own preferred eq.

If they give you both EQ, chances are that 99% of the population will turn on the EQ in the Waves app today and then 3 months later go to realtek audio console to turn on the 2nd EQ because they forgot that they turned on the EQ on the waves app 3 months ago --- thus your sound is ruined.

But this also applies when the 2nd app doesn't have a traditional 10 band EQ. A DTS app may have a movie setting (it alters the EQ to enhance dialog) or a gaming setting (it alters the EQ to enhance explosions). You turning on the gaming setting (and thus more bass for explosions) and then you turn on the 10 band EQ on the realtek audio console (more bass on the 10 band EQ) --- you again ruined your own sound.
