Another interesting advantage is that you can enhance the quality of your video by using its powerful set of filters.

In this fifth tutorial I am about to show you some more about the audio settings you can adjust.

Hands on!! we are going to take brief tour on the most important and useful settings you can adjust in InstaCodecs Audio Decoder configuration. So, access this section dialog by going to Start → All programs → InstaCodecs → Audio decoder configuration in your Windows' Start menu.
Alternatively, you can double-click the blue InstaCodecs audio icon in the System tray while playing a video/audio file but first you have to check that this feature is enabled in the configuration dialog. Go to Tray, dialogs & paths and activate one of the two options: “Modern” or “Classic”.
One of the interesting features I'm going to tell you about today is the built-in equalizer InstaCodecs offer, it is really simple but really effective. As a matter of fact it is quite similar to those included in audio programs or even home theater systems, in this particular case it enables you to adjust the levels of certain frequencies. As always this is almost a matter of taste so it can involve some trial and error till you find the right adjustment that fully satisfies your ears.
And last but not least, another simple but really handy feature, the “Swap channels” section enables you to swap channels among speakers. By doing this you permanently reassign a channel to any speaker you select. Though these adjustments may seem really similar to those options you can set in the mixer section, these will not make the attempt of detecting the original audio channels and will assign the change at all instances. Besides the mixer will only up mix sources that are stereo mode.
Final Words
You can always get the best listening and viewing experience with InstaCodecs, this is undoubtedly a powerful set of tool that offers all kind of users the best technology to achieve the best enjoyment. Nevertheless, most of the adjustment and tweaking we were discussing today are related to subjective decision that requires time and playing.
