Now as a base acoustic download some ZAPF acoustic.Here im using w880's originals.  ZAPF_Acoustic_W880.rar ( 43.89K ) Number of downloads: 129

Lets start modding the PHF files[for headphones].Extract w880's acoustic & then select the files phf_play_*.zapf[1 to 4]& phf_play.zapf

For the N00bs start modding with only TXPGA2, TXPGA1 ; RXPGA2, RXPGA1 ; RXVOL2, RXVOL1.
& for the APF Modder's u know what to do.
When you are done then close the template & save the acoustics.
Finally open APF suite.Click "Compress" select those files which you just edited & click open.it will automatically convert it back to zapf & ur done.



Now put them to your phone to test your acoustics.

thanks in advance!

DRC_RX_DATA is for drc main[Dynamic Range Control]
RXVOL is max at 01 for zapf.try 02 also maybe it works
