I have downloaded and installed DeskFX twice. My PC runs Win7 Professional. I have selected all 3 device options but none of them have audio modified by DeskFX. There is no audio indications on the DeskFX level bar, and it doesn't matter whether I am playing a local audio file or something via browser. The suggestions above did not help.
I will leave it installed for a while, pending any help from NCH or other users as there is nothing else I can do. Thanks to anyone out there who can help ...
