OpenChatMix 2.5.8

The Nova Elite's microphone gets its own equalizer, in the headset itself.

Highlights

  • Microphone equalizer on the Nova Elite (experimental). The switch above the equalizer on the Headset
    tab now has a third choice, Microphone: GG's Balanced, Broadcast High Pitch, Clarity High Pitch and Deep
    Voice presets, Flat and ten band sliders for your own curve. It works in the headset itself, so unlike the
    microphone equalizer on the Microphone page it needs no virtual cable and adds no latency.
  • Bluetooth equalizer confirmed. The Elite's equalizer for sound over Bluetooth from 2.5.7 works.

Both thanks to @Lasfecas in #6: the presets match what GG sends in their USB capture. If the
microphone equalizer doesn't change your voice, please tell us there.

The full list is in CHANGELOG.md.

Upgrading

  • Earlier versions find this one on their own once a day (Settings → Updates), download it, check it
    against SHA256SUMS.txt and restart. You can also replace OpenChatMix.exe by hand.
  • Your settings carry over.

Files

  • OpenChatMix.exe: the app, portable.
  • OpenChatMix-2.5.8-win-x64.zip: the app with both READMEs, the license and the third-party notices.
  • DeepFilterNet-OpenChatMix.dll: the optional AI noise suppression plugin, built from tools/deepfilter.
  • DeepFilterNet-NOTICES.txt: the licenses of DeepFilterNet and the Rust crates inside the plugin.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt: checksums.

The binaries are not code-signed, so SmartScreen may ask for confirmation on the first run, and some
antivirus programs may flag a new, unsigned program; these are false positives. Compare the files with
SHA256SUMS.txt, read the source code or build them yourself. Third-party code (RNNoise, the VST 3 SDK
interfaces, DeepFilterNet in the plugin) is listed in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
