    @xGamersElite Better solution: +miles_channels 2 -xaudio2

    setting miles_channels to 3 i still had not a great audio experience. In combination with -xaudio2 everything works like it used to

This worked for me in windows 7

"So, basically the game complains about a missing "XAudio2" thing.

Via StackOverflow[stackoverflow.com] I've found a fix that worked for me:
As stated in Developer guide for redistributable version of XAudio 2.9[learn.microsoft.com], a version does exists for Windows 7, as a NuGet

My fix is to get that DLL.

1. Go to the "Microsoft.XAudio2.Redist" NuGet[www.nuget.org] page.
2. Download the ".nupkg" file and give it the ".zip" extension (to open it with your favorite archive manager).
3. Copy the "xaudio2_9redist.dll" located in "build\native\release\bin\x64\"
4. To "C:\Windows\System32" as "xaudio2_9.dll"
5. Launch APEX: it should now starts just fine."
