The point of Wasapi is to send bit-perfect output to your dac without the Windows mixer or anything else messing with it, so it will not work with Equalizer APO. However, if you use a parametric EQ plugin in Foobar2000 that will work together with Wasapi. I use the EasyQ plugin (it's a generic VST plugin so you will also need the Foobar VST
You need to reset the windows audio service and reboot. Its the same with Peace EQ. Tried doing that too and nothing happened still the same. settings debugging and testing then APO's configurator then pick the audio devices you need the EQ to control.
Then go to Services (Windows app) and restart 'Windows Audio'. Voila, EqAPO will start working again. You don't have to reboot, you can just restart the Windows Audio service. You can do this through the Services app, or there is even a button there in Peace.
If the LFX/GFX setting isn't working then the convolution can be the issue. HeSuVi uses this to do its magic. Unfortunately, sometimes convolution fails. The developer of Equalize APO hasn't commented on it. If you will I can take a look at the commands file HeSuVi produces to see if your setup uses convolution. Of course you could go back to 1
Start the Configurator of Equalizer APO. 2. Click on the Bluetooth headphones in the Connector column at the left. 3. Check the Troubleshooting options checkbox. 4.

Click the file icon. Since the VST selection screen appears, select the VST file (extension .dll). Only VST 2 is supported. Since there is no bridge function, only VST with the number of bits matching Equalizer APO can be used. We were able to load VST. Please click "Open panel" button. The UI is displayed.
Other than that I'd say this is an APO issue, not a Peace issue. To rule this out though head over to C:\Program Files\EqualizerAPO\config and do the following: - Open "peace.txt" and copy its contents somewhere, an empty notepad for example, or roughly remember some of the config. - Close the file. - Go into Peace interface and enable a new
