Siren x - doesnt work in synapse and cant EQ

ok so i was able to find a few threads where some say synapse wont pick up the siren X. i get it its a plug and play mic but dammit, why cant it pop up in synapse so we can EQ the darn thing!? there isnt much in the way of EQ software (that i can afford anyway). i tried a few and it messed my setting up pretty bad and uninstalled all of it. so i got a $100 mic that sounds tinny and no EQ... anyone have any luck fixing this issue?
