i dont know actually the sonar driver is not installed in the pc that could be why
my question is how to install it back
Download the newest GG and install it
i did today
Then uninstall it first, make sure the virtual devices are gone from device manager, reboot and install it again
i updated my arctis gamebuds x then there were no sound i look it up a bit in a youtube video a guy said u can uninstall it from the device manager and it will solve the issue it did solve it but i cant use it rnnn
oh okk
ok it came back but now
there is no sound at all....
What's your settings in Windows and Sonar mixer?
That looks correct
where can i check it
Post a screenshot of your Sonar mixer page
hi i have a problem, yesterday i bought the arctis nova 1 headset and the mic didnt work so i swapped it with another pair and it still didnt work anybody know why?
And still no sound?
Does it work if you disable Sonar?
So it might be specifically the Gaming device that doesn't work
Try moving firefox to media or aux
Haha, thanks, I appreciate that 
Hello,
I have Artis Nova Pro Wireless.
Windows doesn't recognize the microphone. Well very rarely it does.
I tried re-installing the GG software, toggle sonar and most of the solutions described over the internet.
Yet I can't make it work.
I have never used the dock. The headset is connected trough Bluetooth.
Does anyone have experience with such problem?
But @radiant locust, you can consider reaching out to #official-support about getting the Gaming device to work
oh ok thanks for helping again
An angel loses its wing everytime someone uses bluetooth for PC gaming - don't do it! :(
Bluetooth is intended for listening to music from your phone or phone calls, not PC gaming
You're welcome! Happy to help :)
Any particular reason to not use the dock?
I am travelling a lot and using my laptop when I do. I don’t find using the dock confortable
Sounds like one of the wireless headsets with a small usb-c dongle would have been more relevant for you
Yeah, the thing is it was a gift 😢
Or smaller at least
Sometimes discord picks up the microphone no idea why
Turning off sonar usually works.
The only recommendations I can think of would be to use the dock or connect the headset with the mobile cable it comes with
yo guys do yall know why stream mix is grainy? When I try using stream mix on any live stream plataform it has that grainy sound to it. Sounds like super low bitrate. I have 1gb dowload and upload speed.
Thanks
I noticed it when playing music through the mix.
hi i have a problem, yesterday i bought the arctis nova 1 headset and the mic didnt work so i swapped it with another pair and it still didnt work anybody know why?
Yo, I have the arctis nova 7p wireless.
I just opened the steelseries app and then BOOM all volume gone. how to fix?
Literally just opened the app and all sound gone
hi! my keyboard keeps muting and unmiting my pc, any way to stop that?
according to this screenshot, you have sonar set to output to some other output and not your headset. Click on the output under Game and set it to the right one. you might also want to check out the device manager as well to remove outputs you don't use from the list.
I'm having an issue when I launch Hunt Showdown on PC where I lose all audio from my PC while using Sonar, has anyone experienced this? I have disabled Sonar and reset my windows settings so the sound has returned but Sonar seems to be creating an issue when I launch the game.
Hello, I bought my headset today and I have issues going from this confusing sonar things into my speakers.
I try to just change to my speakers and the sound works on my PC but not on the browser.
Can anyone please help?
Also, do I really need to go through this huge list of "devices" every time I want to change from headset to speakers?
you could change the device in sonar to your speakers
you wont see all the sonar devices there
This is what I see
You mean like that?
yeah
Oh okay, thank you
Also is there a way to automatically do that when the headset is off?
should be a setting in the device manager
only for "nova" headsets, the older arctis headsets do not have power on/off detection
Backup device switch?
Doesn't seem to be changing when I turn it on and off
read lagos message
Oh :/
it works for my novas, it should def mention that part in the app
ah it does ig in the lower setting
I can't see that
Well that's kinda annoying to use the app to switch every time
Oh it does mention only Nova I see
could use hotkeys to switch perhaps?
Hmm that would be good. Have to figure how to do that
hi i have a problem, yesterday i bought the arctis nova 1 headset and the mic didnt work so i swapped it with another pair and it still didnt work anybody know why?
over here, it can switch device on that channel
I set the binds but they are not saving
make sure you press enter to save
Thank you
Seem like I change with the hotkeys, I do get the message it does but in reality it doesn't
The sounds stays on the headphones
here i see the error message that you dont have sonar gaming set in windows
it should work, but something is not setup right
Oh, yeah setting it to default fixed it awesome
Okay, problem solved I got a hotkey to switch now perfect! really appreciate all the help
glad it worked out for ya in the end
My nova pros has a firmware update and everytime i click update it just closes the window and does nothing. Aay help would be great!

Hi I have a problem with arctis nova 7x wirdlass headphones when the “mic sidetone” option is turned on I can hear a terrible noise even on low. I don't know if this is a factory defect or if this is how it is supposed to be please help.
Anyone know how to fix my mic monitoring being automated to 0? Mic won't work because of it
When I start my steelseries moments to clip desktop it will start & randomly stop how do I fix that

Hey does anyone know how to get the preset of the lighting on the APEX PRO GEN 3 RGB. im trying to figure out how to get it like this but im not seeing anything!
also does anyone else know if the key board lighting is dark compared to whats advertised
hm, maybe someone knows that, because I am kinda confused sometimes about my Arctis Nova 5.
Sometimes it just beeps for no reason? It's a double beep, but I am not sure why it is doing it. I checked the information guide and the FAQ, but there is no information about why it double beeps sometimes.
When it beeped this morning, it had around 70% charge, no notificiations on my pc/smartphone etc...
guys i have a stel series apex pro mini i was in a mach and my CAPS key started clicking it self
and its still clicking i am not even toucing it how can i fix it

Hey guys for some reason i cannot get my gg app to open uninstall reinstalled it any ideas

hey guys i own a pair of Steel series Arctic nova pros WIRED PS5 version, how do i set up mixer so i can hear my discord VC through PC whilst also hearing my ps5 game audio
My SteelSeries GG application won't capture games anymore. I've even changed the hotkey, thinking it was conflicting with something else, but it just doesn't do anything. I've restarted, reinstalled, run as admin / not, changed settings, etc.
I have this sense that this application has only continued to get worse in the past several months, as I have constant issues with it reverting settings everywhere and generally not working well, but I'm hoping someone can just point me to where I am using it wrong.
hi
double beep could be a connection issue. Have you tried resetting it?
could you help me
would definitely recommend checking out #official-support to create a ticket for this 🙂
resetting in what form? Like turning it off and on again? By now it's like everytime I turn on my headset, sometimes it's one beep, but most of the time two beeps. Sound works fine while beeping tho
Recently ran into an issue with wireless not working on steelseries tkl wireless keyboard, just one day took it off charge and didn't connect to dongle, i've reinstalled .gg no fix and tried the dongle in another port etc, when i switch it into that mode the lights flicker in white from f1-12 on my keyboard, but still doesn't turn on, is there any fix for this?
Can I clip Minecraft?
hey so i watched all the vids on how to connect my artic nova 5 headset to the gg app but none of it worked could any of yall help me out
Hey guys just bought my first solar headset just having a big of trouble setting the sound settings up and volume, I normally have my PC volume at 20 doing anything with my other headset and it works however with this one it's really quiet unless I go to nearly 70. Was just wondering if there's an optimal setup on the sonar to fix this
If you are talking about a Steelseries headset, you need to download the software for it, "steelseries gg", you can make any settings you want for the headset from this application, and if there is a limiter setting on your headset, you can turn it off and get louder sound.
I think that's different to what I have I literally just unboxed the headset itself and downloaded it so I'm not sure how to work everything
I can't send images here but it looks different to the one you sent
yazılımı indirdin mi ?
did you download the software?
Yes
Have you set up the headphones?
yes
Have you tried increasing the equalizer settings?
And are you sure the volume dial on your headphones is at the highest level?
I think you took a reset of your computer, my friend 😄
Can you send me a screenshot of the headphone window of the software you downloaded privately in detail?
yeah sure
the microphone in my headphones stopped working
Hey I'm using arctis Nova 3 and last night the mic was working just fine, but the power went out this morning and when I turned everything on I'm getting an error that says something went wrong, check your device's status or pick another one, I can hear myself through the mic but other people can't hear me, mic test websites can't hear me, Even my PCs built in mic test under input device doesn't go off when I speak
Hey has anyone here got the Nova pro wireless? I'm wondering if i can have it setup on my pc but still have audio coming through from my ps5?
Sound comes from whatever device you connect it to, if you connect it to a computer, it comes from the computer, if you connect it to a PS5, it comes from the PS5, so there is no problem.
Hello i am using a Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset, i noticed the docking station randomly turned off even with the usb still connected. The audio through my headset then dropped and my laptop started using my speakers... I am now left unable to hear or speak through my headset.
I have reinstalled steelseries, repaired the headset to the docking station using 6 second power button.
still cant seem to get any noise, im assuming this is a sound driver issue, please could anyone help? Thank you
the microphone in my headphones stopped working
Im currently using astro a40s and i've got them set up to my pc but ive also got audio coming through from my ps5 so i was wondering if it was posible with the nova pro
I don't know much about nova pro, I use nova 7, I get sound from whatever device I connect it to, I can connect to bluetooth and dongle wirelessly.
That is; I can connect my headphones to both my phone and computer at the same time and I get sound from both.
around a month ago my steelseries moments just stopped detecting rust so i cant clip anymore
there is no setting that i can find that helps me in the slightest
Anyone have issues with a USB c port suddendly not working on the back of the PC?
My mixer was plugged into that and now everything is messed up
Hello guys, anyone having Audio Crackling issue? windows 11 24h2 clean install! Arctis 7 wireless.
i got a static noise every now and then on my voice meeter, i just restart the engine and it temporarily fixes
There's a way to test noise ?
while im playing valorant the audio will completely go to statis everytime there is a sound, its just my normal audio coming thru that js randomly breaks
how do i stop sonar from changing my defualt devices everytime it launches? I thought excluding everything would fix it but ig not
In Windows or Sonar?
well when i open sonar on my pc, it automatically changes all my defualt devices to steel series related stuff rather than my normal voice meeter set stuff
So Windows? You should disable Sonar in settings if you don't want to use it
supposed to stay like this but when i open sonar it changes to gaming and something else
It changing the defaults in Windows is intended behaviour
im using sonar for the gaming audio
so how can i use voice meeter for my mic and sonar for my headset audio?
So set Windows to the Sonar - Gaming device?
Run the mic through Sonar?
With voice meeter
i tried, it just doesnt pick up
let me try again ill lyk
Aight
input in voice meeter but not sonar
and when i put my pnp mic into sonar alone it doesnt pickup there either
I avoid Voicemeeter like the plague, so I'm not really sure
any idea how i can prevent sonar from messing with my defualt devices and it lets me set it manually and it will leave it alone?
You make a suggestion in #1070392859125104660 and somehow convince them to change the behaviour
or, is there a way to shorten the delay on the playback in sonar? i had my mic working there a while ago(as in earlier today) but turned it off because the play back has a slight delay but on voice meeter there is no delay
Just reset my pc and Microphone works and join a game and try to use it blanks out any reason?
has anyone had driver issues with the nova pro wireless? My windows doesnt see the dock as an audio output device, and it doesnt show up in the gg app either.
Did we loose access to keyboard shortcuts for sonar? I can't seem to make keyboard shortcuts to mute my mic
who knows how I enter the game, the backlight on the keyboard turns red, how I exit by default, how to remove the red backlight
hi guys.
my sonar has been acting up lately. i'll be watching a youtube video and the volume will either go full blast or lower itself to barely audible. i first thought this was a windows thing but i then tried voicemeeter and it didnt happen. it also appears that my sonar virtual mic is very low on volume despite being on full blast until i touch the in app fader. are these known issues, or is it just me?
ello ello idk if this is the right place to ask but pretty sure it is. This morning my chat mixer has just decided to stop changing the volume? the dial on my headphones (arctis nova 7x) still changes the lil bar on the app but it doesn't make any difference. I've made sure my audio output is set to sonar game and discord is set to sonar chat but the audio for videos and games stays the same. I did discover a tedious workaround where if I set dial to where I want it (I can see the bar on the app), then change my main windows audio output back to the regular headphone output, then return to the app and press the popup saying to activate sonar (so it changes my windows output back) then the audio is correct to my chat mixer. But I cant change it after, unless I do the same thing each time. I hope this is just a bug with the software because the mixer still works when I'm using my Xbox and Bluetooth at the same time. Thank you so much for reading this.
nevermind that workaround also doesnt work its just kind of random
oop figured out that it changes to the right volumn every time I close then reopen an app/window eg everytime i close google, if i reopen it after changing the mixer, its different
how do i make it so the steelseries app always wants me to use the maunaul mixer for sound and not the in app one
I can hear my own voice from the microphone, can someone help me?
Many SteelSeries headsets come with Sidetone, which allow you to hear yourself through the headset’s mic for better clarity when talking.
For most headsets, the volume of the Sidetone can be lowered in SteelSeries Engine, which is part of GG. GG can be downloaded here: https://steelseries.com/gg
If you have a “Playstation” version of a headset (such as the Arctis Nova 7P) then your headset may have a physical wheel on the headset for turning the sidetone down.
For analog headsets that use the 3.5mm headphone port, sidetone may be generated by your on-board audio devices. Please refer to your computer manufacturer’s support for more help
Check the support FAQ message above :)
The output priority setting has disappeared from the SteelSeries GG settings.
It was moved into the device manager recently
I wonder where?
The one right above it? #❓-casual-support message
I found it, but it doesn't work. I have priority 1 set to headset and priority 2 to speaker, but when I turn off the headset, it doesn't automatically switch to speaker.
Which headset? Is the bottom option enabled?
Mic Sidetone setting off ?
Originally, when I turned off the headset, it automatically switched to the speakers, and when I turned it back on, the sound came out of the headset.
@round holly how do i turn it off
I use Nova5 wireless
It should work with those settings
You can try running the GG installer again without uninstalling first
@round holly bro Mic Sidetone setting off ? how do i turn it off please
I just reinstalled it
It's in the message here #❓-casual-support message
There's also a button for more info
I don't understand anything, I just want to close it, can you help me?
is it worthwhile to even try to repair a double click issue on a rival 5?

Trying to connect my arctis nova 7 with a jack cable that i bought. Getting this error
make sure it's not just a power usb-c there're diffrent ones
that's what i meant
I am getting an issue where I can't change any settings on Moments, it won't start recording gameplay despite saying it's waiting, and I can't start desktop capture. My graphics driver is up to date, I have uninstalled, and reinstalled GG. Any thoughts or known fixes?
Dude, the moderators here are not helping with anything, I think they are here only for moderator authority, I sent an e-mail to the steelseriesgg software support team and there is no answer from there, they are seriously not interested, I am really regretting buying my equipment from this brand right now
you running as admin with windows game mode disabled?
I get your frustrated but I see you are a new member as I am. I'm gonna be patient rather than skipping straight to being a doomer.
windows game mode is off I tried running steelseries gg as administrator and it doesn't work "just like the moderators here"
did you just open a case? or send email direct? I use the support tickets and had an issue this week, got a reply from software support within a few hours
I don't know if this has anything to do with the new membership, I asked for help not only here but also by e-mail and they don't offer any solution, so yes I am angry
I tried to contact via email and sent a ticket but there is no progress.
Anyway, I'm talking in vain here, thanks for trying to help, my friend.
I have a clean win11 install and just turned it on and got auto clip going no problem, but have had issues historically when competing overlays run (nvidia or radeon capture on top of moments auto-clip) and disabled everything across the board outside of this test
I don't need automatic clip recording anyway, I want it to record a clip when I press the clip shortcut with the alt s keys.
so my only tip would b e make sure radeon/nvid clips are disabled as the two could be competing for the data needed to clip
I am playing a game called s4 league. I am playing the server game that belongs to the main game closed community server. Previously, I could add this game from the steelseries gg moments window and get clips. Now, I cannot get clips at all. I cannot get clips from the desktop. I cannot get clips in the game I mentioned and I cannot get clips in other games either. I reset my computer, formatted it and reinstalled Windows 10 and I cannot get clips. However, I can get clips from the nvidia experience application when I try.
well, I hope you find a fix soon. Once October hits Win10 will get the "tough luck" treatment from all
I do not complain or regret the Windows version I use, but I am now uncomfortable and regretful with the Steelseries brand. They should change its name from Steelseries to Rangeseries.
They have ruined this application with every new software that comes out and when I ask for help rangeseries does not try to help 😄
Dude I checked your stuff and you've been in the discord since yesterday
unclench, please
Yes, I joined the discord channel yesterday, I'm not saying that I'm just asking for help here, I've been asking for help from the discord server since yesterday, and not just discord, I've been creating a ticket for software help on the steelseriesgg website for a week, what you see is just what I write here, my friend.
it's fair, I work in support (not for Steel) and SteelSeries knows just as well as any other company that a lot of the folks here show up because they are already having issues or got stuck trying to engage another way. It's not a feel good moment, but support channels never really are.
ive got the alias pro with the mixer and I plug my headphones in via the mixer. All of a sudden it goes quiet af and cant fix it. any suggestions?
Arctis Nova Pro microphone keeps cutting out. can I please get some advice as what to do?
outside of a physical loose wire or short in the hardware, check for a noise gate in sonar > mic and disable it or turn the threshold way down
what do your sonar settings look like? Just the 3m with simple headphones to the back of the mixer? What goes quiet, you hearing your own mic or the audio source from a game/app/person talking to you?
both have gone quiet, all volume and hearing myself has gone quiet and muffled
noise gate is off, how could I identify if it were a hardware issue?
every single app is not routed to any channel
what is your default windows device for audio? if it's defaulting to a non-sonar profile it may just be going from sonar settings (which show it all the way up) to a default windows device with no boost
the default is the personal device for the playback and pc sound
that's not using sonar
if you have sonar on then your default output in windows should be set to sonar. the default output is sonar - gaming
clicking that yellow error in sonar should auto-set it in windows for you
for best control, change the profile. If you don't want to, then the tweaking for volume and settings would have to be within windows > system > sound > select device > adjust volume/settings
@orchid surge I prefer sleeping in a bed but I don't understand the question? Your comment was auto blocked for mass mention btw
hey anyone free to help me out with something?
i have an arctis 5 or 7 headset from a few years back, its plugged into my alias mic 3.5mm jack.. the headset never shows up in the GG software.
i recently had to reinstall steelseries GG and now i have to reset my EQ settings.
i am having tremendous difficulty trying to not hear myself come through my headset. I used to have it set up properly, but now i cant rememer how i did it
whenever i talk or type, i can hear it through the headset now, never used to be that way, cant figure out how to fix that
I don't have an alias, but can you disable side tone under engine? sounds like it's just streaming right back into your ear, and I think that's just sidetone being on by default?
nvm fixed
i am just having the same issue right now !
this, i was trying to mess around with the chatmix thinking something like that was bugged, forgot i had to go into the microphone settings itself,
are you connecting your headset via usb, dac or is it a wireless set??
i messed with the thing a little and now it seems to be good i hope, tried to clicking many times on the yes i want to update firmware buttons, then finally unplugged everything and restarted the app, no more update firmware prompt
which i hope means a good thing, i do have sound sooooo seems ok
as long as it works, so maybe it was just an issue re-registering the new version after the update vs the update actually failing
the view engine info button showed a '0' at every version possible the thing had lol
great software 👌
@valid wave I asked for help from a youtuber and he solved all my problem
curious what it was, overlays vs drivers vs some setting idk?
You know I couldn't get a clip
no disk space to save it to?
The youtuber who helped me checked my moments settings in steelseries gg and my computer language is English, I could not get clips because I was using Turkish, we installed it in English and it worked on the computer and then he said you can continue using it in Turkish and it still works
So the problem was the language and steelseries settings
It's a somewhat common misconception that people think mods are support staff but we are in fact neither paid staff nor are we support.
lol, wonder if like turkish keyboard layout means alt + s would be different vs a US layout or something. Good to know though, I never would have caught that. Thanks for following up
No one says you have to help, people come here and who do you think they ask for help first, of course the moderators because they think they know something, so it's normal for a newcomer to expect help from you
But saying that moderators are not helping with anything is just straight up not true, I've helped a lot of people. I have almost 50k messages in the server 😅
It's not any different anyway, the problem wasn't the keyboard language, it was the computer language setting. We first set it to English and it was fixed, then we switched the computer back to Turkish and I can still get clips
I entered the server last night, if I'm not mistaken, as far as I can see I didn't see anyone helping anyone who asked for help. Look, I said I entered last night and I mean as far as I can see. I already helped 1 person yesterday
Lots of people do and you kinda said that too or at the very least implied that we should
normally ?
I've been told lots of times to "do my job and help"
If I were the moderator here, and you were a user or member having problems, the first person you would call for help would be the moderator, and that's normal.
What it tells me is that you didn't even spend the 10-30 seconds it takes to read the #rules you accepted when you joined
Anyway, my friend, I don't want to get into a polemic with you. Very serious things were not discussed and there is no need to discuss them, I just didn't get the help I wanted or "thought" of from here. Maybe I didn't have to, I don't know.
You still felt the need to ask how we sleep at night
Yes, I didn't read the rules because I needed help, not the rules.
I didn't ask how you sleep at night, you misread what I wrote, I asked how you sleep on discord 😄
Reading the rules of a server is just common decency but I guess that's a generational difference
Oh I read what you wrote
yes my friend I am generation z and I am a problematic generation I don't like reading rules you understand ^^
It would be ridiculous if I don't have a personal problem with you, anyway, do you have a problem? If there's nothing you want to talk about, I'll watch the football match
My time is important, just like you moderators.
Enjoy the football match :)
Thank you. I hope you have fun too, it's evening here, so I wish you a good evening.
Nope :)
Hey all i have steel series used and the charging cable has wires exposed how do i get a new charging cable?
does anyone know a fix to this?
You should be fine just using any standard USB cable. Which headset is it?
I will send u a pic when i get home
Aight
Is it possible to use the steelseries arctis nova pro gamedac to both receive audio from my gaming pc, and feed that same audio to a secondary streaming pc using the line out/in ports on the gamedac?
you can change the line out mode from "speaker" to "stream", and from there it'll give you a stream mixer of what audio you want to send to the line out.
Would I plug it into a mic port or line in? Stream mix is set to 50% across the board but the streaming pc isn't picking up any audio
line in would probably be better than a mic input
No luck.
HI i have ARCTIS 7P+ headset and i use bluetooth , so now my headset don't work anybody know how can i let my headset work ): ??
Hello guys, maybe anyone know what maybe be the reason of this. I cant make clips now IN games, to do a clip I need to press windows button, and then press hotkeys for clip, then it will work, but if I just press the hotkeys it wont catch anything, everything was alright a week ago...
did you reset your bluetooth on the headset yet? should be a small pinhole on the left earcup you can shove a paperclip into for a few seconds to reset and then reconnect if it's a headphone issue
Hey, my steelseires gg software wont open or crashes immediately… i need help. And no i dont have a vpn

Hey, SteelSeries GG does not see the microphone of the arctic 7 headphones. What to do?
Anyone have anything around an Arctis Nova 1 headset. I'm either not being heard or my voice is very quiet. everything is turned up to max for me
guys sonar is not picking up my arctic nova pro mick everything else works
how can I delete them so i have only 2 configs, or there another way to switch between the 2 only so typing and fn configs, because the others are bascially useless to me.
anyone having a problem where you voice is echoing while doing live on tiktokstudio ?
5 defaults are stuck, it'll recreate if you find a way to blow them out
for you and @lusty grove is it not applying settings? or not finding it as an option under the mic mix here?
you may need to enable access to your mic for gg, windows settings > microphone privacy settings > let apps access your mic
depending on security settings, that would block gg from accessing your mic
@valid wave it is allowed
does Windows detect the microphone? system > sound > input devices?
just seeing if it's from the mic to the pc, or specific to GG
so no, sonar has the settings but windows doesn't see the device, if it did there would be a sonar - mic profile and a mic-arctis (windows) profile
So how fix
you have a lot of devices, I'd see if it's disabled and if not disconnect your other mics then reboot to test. If still jacked, you can hard reset your headset. If Windows picked up the hardware and it's disabled it'll be listed here:
I already did that so how hard reset
is this wired or wireless?
wireless
you use the base station settings to factory reset, here is a video if you aren't familiar with getting into the settings on the dac - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GacHsRVmSIM

@valid wave nope didnt work
if permissions are set properly in windows, gg is up to date and picking up the headset, factory rest + reboot didn't bring it back, it's time for a proper support case to let the pros handle it. https://steelseries.com/dashboard/support
K
steelseries app crashes on launch.
when im able to open it it says the core is not running
have you uninstall/re-installed it?
yes. even updated my pc
running as admin, no security agents running that could be stopping it? booting to safe mode to try and start it would be next to see if it's competition with another app/service vs corrupt piece of install before going to a SS support case
running as admin works.
||so far||
fingers crossed that it stays stable
my whole setup depends on ss so better keep them crossed
Hello, I have an apex pro tkl and I wanted to know if it is possible to display whatsapp notifications directly on it, or even the chat of our stream or the sound we are currently listening to on spotify and if so I wanted to know how to do it?
I don't know of any plugins that already exist, but if you know how to program the API to display events on the RGB/Screen is open to everyone https://steelseries.com/developer
Information, documentation, and resources to help game & app developers easily add GameSense integration.
oh, i should mention that gamesense essentials can display spotify audio, but the other two things I don't know of anything already out there https://github.com/mtricht/gamesense-essentials
oh thx I'll test
So technically, after downloading the program I'm supposed to see the sounds I'm listening to on my keyboard's OLED screen?
The new version is like a reverse update. My sonar was originally able to automatically detect the status of my nova wireless to auto switch, but now I have to unplug and plug the device after startup to make the software detect it.
??
ok that's good thank you very much for the software 🔥🔥
and what is the year of release of this version of the apex pro tkl?
somewhere around 2019 i think
yall help i reinstalled not workk
running as admin? that fixed a similar error further up the chat today
i am running as admin
see if anything here helps? #1354523903220908212 message
naa i did that
steelseries wont start from services
no security apps running that may be stopping it?

lemme cry lemme cry.

hi there! i recently bought the arctis pro wireless and am loving it but one small issue is today i found out that whenever i try to adjust the chatmix using the wheel the** base station just immediately restarts/crashes** and re-trying chatmix after leads to the same result. anyone else experienced this before and if so how to solve it? i've connected the base station thru the USB cable to my laptop and done nothing to it as of now.
ok thx

I have a problem with adjusting my mic in sonar, discord doesnt seem to detect my microphone, so does obs
i think this is the problem the services wont start @clever path
Gotcha. Usually they would like to collect as many logs as possible to help pinpoint the root 🙂
hey @clever path seeing as you're staff do you have any insight on my issue too? seems like a hardware thing but not too sure.
Hello All, Ive switched over to SS moments to clip my Rocket league highlights, but the auto-clip just doesnt seem to work. I can manually do it with ALT+S still but wanted autoclip to work. Ive tried running the program as admin and have verified in the SS settings that RL is turned on for autoclip. Has this been an issue for anyone else? Did I miss something somewhere that this is a known issue? Thank you for any help you can provide
I am using the Steam version of Rocket league if that matters
have you checked out your laptop power settings for usb ports? Do you have a desktop to test with? laptop power to ports is very different and can cause issues when devices try to engage the system if low power modes or usb devices are power managed vs just always up like on a desktop
thats the curious thing. it was working perfectly yesterday so I don’t think it’s the ports problem also it never JUST turns off it always restarts when i try to adjust the chat mix with the knob
Hey! I just purchased the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro for my Windows 11 PC. Now that everything is setup, I cannot switch the sound back to my speakers. When the headset is off it just plays sound to those profiles.
How can I get my speakers to work when my headset is turned off?
you should see a 'backup device switch' setting in sonar under device manager
Thank you for your reply!
I've seen "Device Manger" mentioned... but I don't seem to have that. Am I being blind?
if you click a device name under a profile you should see it
OMFG! Thank you very much!
so there you can set your priority and enable auto backup device switch to get what you want
It was set to "manual"
how to use?
I am using msi raider ge78 hx and when I enter spotify all my led lights go off. How can I fix it?
Defintely strange. Could maybe Sonar. Might be crazy, but maybe restart GG ?
Check out #official-support on how to create a ticket. Our Software Support Team is trying to get as much info on this issue as poosible
my steelseries engine straight up not recognizing my arctis 7+, i uninstalled and reinstalled the app, ran as admin, not sure what to do from here. headset is plugged into a usb 2.0 and i switched between 2.0 and 3.0 with no changes
you'd probably want the dongle plugged in, not the headset.
I bought a new dongle because I lost the one it came with. It’s plugged in as well
Desperate for some help since the dongle cost 40 bucks with shipping
is the dongle lighting up or showing in windows as connected?
nope
ok i replygged it and it showed up, and now i can see the headset in gear. i hit pair device but i dont get any indication that the device is pairing, the window just disappears
Do you have a vpn installed?
yes
Try uninstalling it
They can interfere with the login process
You can install it again after
it worked thank u very much
Sweet! You’re welcome ☺️
hi my apex pro mini is not recognised by SteelSeries GG. I reinstalled the drivers and SteelSeries GG twice and nothing worked. I plug the dogle in, switch on the central mode, plug the keybaord via the usb type c cable and it doesnt let me click start
Hello! I updated Windows 11 last night and now the SteelSeries GG Sonar is giving me the ERROR: 3762504530 issue. I tried every solution the website had plus a few extras like opening the app in admin, restarting the device, and updating to the newest version. With this error active, Discord won't detect any of my mic inputs, even those excluded from Sonar. I did send a support ticket out but unfortunately my work hours conflict with theirs and I have a stream I'm supposed to be on in 15 minutes. I'm just wondering if this is a just a me issue or if others are having this issue?
Update: With this error I can hear everything on my pc except Discord and it won't let me turn Sonar off because it won't even load.
wrong channel sry
Hello does anyone else here play ff14? If so do you guys know how to fix steel series having trouble capturing it?
I finally got it to see it but when it save a clip the voices and sounds are out of sync
maybe it might not just be ff14? Just delay in my clips in general. anyget that issue?
Hello! my Wireless headphones are making games with loud gunfire or explosions cause popping and bad audio. My gameDac doesn't seem to be connected to my headphones because changing the Volume/EQ doesn't change anything as of right now

looking for a way to adjust mic sensitivity on a nova pro wireless, sonar wont load anything through gg and its not in regular config settings to my knowledge
Thank you!!
How do I change color of tkl 3 and rival 3 on Xbox

hi.. my oled chat box dont work..how can i fixit?
Hello everyone, so my windows key just doesn't work whatsoever on the Apex 3
Hello, I have unfortunately become the owner of Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headphones today. The issue is that when turning them on, the headphones make no sound. After connecting to the phone via Bluetooth and playing music, there's still nothing to be heard. In Windows, the headphone sliders move, everything seems to pair, yet there's still no sound. I'm not sure whether it's a software issue or if I just bought faulty equipment. Maybe someone has encountered a similar issue before and found a solution?
can u see it under "engine" in the steelseries software?
TYSM!
Yes
and what shows your "default" profile for settings?
I`m confused because my old arctis 9 beeps when i was turning them on. In this headset there is dead silence
But when i connect them through aux port in dac they play music but with no volume regulation at all
my attatchable steelseries mic wont work on the arctis 1 wireless (im on pc, the mic just wont pick anything up)
What I find odd is that it doesn't work via Bluetooth either. That rules out a software issue.
then i believe i should return it to the shop as it seems to be physically broken?
wait a moment for more answers from the community. I have the old arctis pro wireless. not the nova. my settings are not the same in software :/ @round holly tips?
I found this slider set to 0 but i could not move it at all, idk if this would help with diagnose
using sonar and the mixer channels? so look at the device manager in steelseries sonar and check the volume from device
This is my laptop with freshly installed gg app without sonar (i`m trying everything 😮💨 )
install sonar, activate it and check device manager pls
disable streamer mode and go to the device manager (you see it after deactivate the streamer mode)
ok now play sound and look back to sonar
and works?
nope
I`m curious if there is any possibility to force firmware update on device? Maybe it would help
idk how to force it - it shows automaticly if there is a new update :/ hmmm im so sry, but i cant help u
my attatchable steelseries mic wont work on the arctis 1 wireless (im on pc, the mic just wont pick anything up) @tepid shell
check all steps what i sayed to kantoo 😄
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1------- ive been having this issue where i can hear everything clearly but the mic isnt picking up on my gaming pc
ik the mic works cuz i plugged it in my laptop and it worked

but im still lost on what to do in order to make it work
Sorry guys, but "it doesn't work" isn't a description of the problem. Check all settings and send screenshots so we can see. But without any information, we can't do anything.

@hardy charm spread it we need a fix
all we can do now is wait for someone to reply if they know
if you need a fix you should talk to #official-support
alr
does things like that get patched fast usally
You first need to know what the problem is before thinking it will be patched or something
If its not a widespread problem then it will be related with your pc more, official support can check the app logs and identify whats causing the software to break, just need to contact them
made a ticket, sent the situation over to official support, now we wait
thx bro
how u find thes e logs?
The support will ask and show how to do it all if it will be needed

thanks for trying, it`s going back to shop
i just receive my steel series nova 7 and now cannot turn it off bluetooth not working i try reset nothing work any tip
its work for a moment and now nothing
how can i fix it
I'm having this issue too. A lot of people seem to be having it so I think it's something with either the app or the latest Windows update. As of now, I haven't found a solution.
anyone know how to fix arctis 9x not turning on? no light when charging or attempting to turn on. Worked before i went to bed on the 8th then when I tried to use it on the 9th and today it is unresponsive
what PC do you have? AFAIK it shouldn't have any compatibility issues with Win10/Win11 machines, assuming it's not one of the weird ones like ones that run on an ARM processor or ones still on 32bit processors
Im on any regular PC. app was working fine for months but stopped working after I restarted a while bacl
that issue is fixed.
how do i turn on the sonar overlay?
Has the steelseries giveaways ever worked?
why my steelseries GG always doesnt work i need to install it again every day
Hello the steelseries arc nova 1 have software ??
it will use your windows drivers, so it will not show up in GG, on the list of detected devices. You still can use Sonar 🙂
But i can register the headset inn software like Logitech idk
ONLY for register
Register the headset to detect in GG, or for warranty purposes?
ONLY for register
In gg
And on gg software i can get the Equalizer ?? For arc nova 1?
it wont show up in GG as it connects to the 3.5mm connection. For the EQs, if you make any changes in Sonar, they will automatically changes in the headset
The arc nova 1 have 7.1 native works 7.1 with consoles and PC and etc or ONLY for PC?
Hello ! I just saw few days ago that some of my keys on my keyboard light up differently from the others.
For example if all of my keyboard light green, my "F4" key will light up orange, etc...
The effects are working, it's just that the color is always different from the configuration i selected.
Does anyone had this bug before or can help me ?
Thanks all !
Try it with clean Red, Green and Blue colors and you will probably see it turn off with one of those colors
That means that specific LED color is dead
There's no fix as it's a hardware issue other than getting a replacement
Yeah, you’re right… ill check my waranty then :(
Thanks a lot
it was in early 2023... i think it's too late
@clever path sorry for ping but
cannot access keyboard and mouse prism RGB settings after update
Evening, Anyone able to help me not pull my hair out and tell me why the chatmix is no longer reducing chat / game volume with the scroll on headset?
so with my artic nova pro (wired) i cant mess with my chat mix all of a sudden, tried changing what slot its plugged into and everything no dice, and I cant change it in the software so its painfully loud in game
Im trying to update the firmware of my actis nova pro but the program doesnt recognize the headphones when I plug them via USB but the headphones still charge when plugged
i need the best config to steelseries sonar plis help
Right this is the last place I check, but my Nova 3's are picking up SO MUCH SOUND. Even at its lowest setting it can pick up my fingers snapping from across the room, my mouse clicking, even my (currently sick) gurgling breath. Every game recording I have made so far has been RUINED due to this. PLEASE can I get some help from an actual human before I smash them to peices and go back to Corsair?
Sorry that sounds way more demanding than I intended, but im currently sick, tired, and very frustrated that several very funny moments I had saved have been ruined by these things. Ive only just recently bought them so unless theres an obvious thing im missing, Im at the end of the things suggested to me
Heres what I mean, you can hear me RUBBING MY FINGERS TOGETHER. WHY IS IT SO SENSITIVE. Volume warning btw, Im sick as a dog
hi guys.
my sonar has been acting up lately. i'll be watching a youtube video and the volume will either go full blast or lower itself to barely audible. i first thought this was a windows thing but i then tried voicemeeter and it didnt happen. it also appears that my sonar virtual mic is very low on volume despite being on full blast until i touch the in app fader. are these known issues, or is it just me?
why are my head phone not working on discord
my attatchable mic on my headset doesnt work unless its plugged into the pc rather than headset
my headset, mic and keyboard keep crashing. Im 90% sure its steelseries.gg cus my logitech mouse never cashes
how to fix this?
My email is right and I cannot see my order because I can’t verify it the email doesn’t coming any help
i got an arctis nova 1 and the mic doesn't work. according to my friends, they can hear some discord notis getting through but not my voice
My steelseries gg desktop recording is not working. once i restarted it is possible to start it, after that it instantly stops and the start desktop recording button isnt working anymore
why can't you just make normal headphones without pointless bloatware that ruins it?
yo, I've got the Arctis Nova Pro, wired, and everytime I turn my computer on they don't have any sound until I unplug them and plug them back in. anyone know what's going on and how I can fix this?
for $400+ headphones, it's not an issue I expected, let alone want to deal with. it's been happening since only about a week of having them.
run it as admin, right click > properties > compat > run as admin
what does sonar look like? is discord set to use the mic or sonar profile that is leveraging the mic?
is your sonar defaulting to another device? you can adjust the priority order/list to make the PC go to your headset first, but need to adjust it in sonar
got it working dw lol
I am assigning it to the keyboard as a macro but it is not working.
hey there, I got the arctis 7 nova yesterday, and today when I turned on my pc, the loudness is very loud, having my volume at 2 on the sonar game channel is crazy loud. How can I fix this
You should be able to adjust the channel. But here is a Sonar Tutorial: https://youtu.be/qvmLSz4xliI?si=NL3zLxzLkubvR_tA

After selecting all the zones I cant change RGB anyone know how to fix it?\
you probably have the keyboard enabled in prism, so prism is taking priority and disabling the lighting in the config window. either use prism or turn the keyboard off in prism so the options in the config window re-enable
Can I change the colour of the presets from prism?
And where
no you can't edit presets in prism, just the effects in the effects tab
Hey, everybody.
I got a SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 for my birthday. I want to ask if there is any way to set the microphone to not record nonstop? Is there a feature like push and talk? It really bothers me when I'm recording game footage and then in the video you can hear the background even when I'm not talking into the game.
Thanks.
Hello Can somebody help me ? In Warzone and Bo6 the Moments are not clipping asutomaticly :S
depending on your recording software you could activate push to talk there, and/or have some noise canceling features so the mic does not pick us every tiny noise in your room
personally i use shadowplay and have no background noise issues with just a few noise canceling features from steelseries sonar
Can someone help I just got a nova 3 how do I hook it up to discord with sonar? When I try my voice and voice playback keep cutting in and out
I used a SteelSeries autoclip and you can hear my girlfriend talking on the phone in the background even though I wasn't talking in the game. With previous headsets, my microphone only recorded when I pressed voice chat in game or on discord. This is a pretty uncomfortable finding.
Or does discord not work with sonar?
it should work, try turning off any noise cancelling in sonar/discord, since that can cause the mic to cut in/out
including the noise cancelling in "chat" since that can affect your friends talking in discord as well
Does that include clear cast?
**i need help.**when im using sonar for the audio the program keeps "crashing" (the audio returns to deafult) and this window pops up, then i need to restart the program for it to work again, in like 10 minutes until it does this again. anyone knows what wrong and how to fix it? also i dont have the steelseriesClient.exe pinned... so idk
What's your audio settings in Discord?
hey so i cannot accsess GG, no matter what i try GG will NOT open, what do i do?
Sonar mic and sonar chat for the input output I also have all nosie gates and stuff like that off I'm pretty sure it's fixed though. I can tell the difference in the audio and there's no more cutout
Great :)

Got an issue with my arctic nova pro wireless where it disconnects from the dock after every use. When I try and restart a session it often times blinks for a bit, not pairing and won't turn off unless I remove the battery. Repeating this a couple times eventually gets the pairing to work. This is for PC
I just bought the arctis nova pro wireless and I keep hearing my voice whats the problem? can any one help me plz
thats just mic sidetone
you can disable it in the dac or the steelseries gg software
I did it and I still hear my voice
do you perhaps have sonar with streaming mode on? otherwise idk
bro
this $350 headset will not update. When I click update nothing happens and I am stuck on the firmware update available on the box
Not sure why the price is relevant, try installing GG again without uninstalling first
so no one here knows what this is then?
sorry bro i wish i could help. how much did you pay for the headset??
hi guys i just bought the Arctis Nova 7 Wireless for my ps5 i only play siege so i tried it the sound was weird like the foot steps were mixed so i tried everything the sonar and engine i messed up the noise a lot of time i was saying if some help it me or gave me some settings i would be appreciate it a lot
yo, does anyone want to help me set up sonar on my pc? Not quite figuring ti out
I'm playing call of duty and the audio is delayed a bit any idea why?
I'm not sure what I did wrong
hello i have a question when i take a clip with moment i can't hear my friends in discord how can i fix that please ?
why cant i download sonar for efing mac!!!!!!
umm since the last update my steelseries will not capture a clip
Because it doesn’t exist? You can suggest it in #1070392859125104660
i know it doesnt but why
why must they make me suffer
Audio works very differently on Mac so they would have to re write a lot of things to make it work so it would take a lot of resources to do.
Gaming on Mac is still kinda niche so it wouldn’t benefit very many users.
Or that’s at least my perspective on why it’s not been made as a fellow Mac user
i dont really game on mack just strem and try to use equalizer setting for a output
i understand i hope they do it soon i wouldn't see why not. its fully beneficial even if thye charge.
i know mac can be a hassle
Is there anyone who can help?
Help with what?
I set a macro on the keyboard but it doesn't work
It was working yesterday but not today.
Oh ok. Let’s go first over some typical things I’ve experienced with my macros.
- Is GG running
*(may be stupid but happend to me) are you in the right profile.
- Is the macro still set in GG?
ı think yes
As far as I know audio is on every operating system a mess and quite difficult to pull of right
What should the macro do?
I'm trying to press prtsc to take a screenshot.
Hmm ok. Maybe it is something with GG I would try to restart GG and your device.
I have also a problem with arctis nova pro. Sometime ago a made a firmware update and since then the DAC schows on startup that another update is available. Sometimes GG attempts to start one but after connection and clicking on update nothing happens.
But also sometimes GG does not show an update.
The dirty fix for my problem is to disconnect and reconnect the DAC. But it’s quite annoying and I fear that I cannot get a fixing update.
Has someone an idea to fix this?
Or does someone now how to reflash the firmware?
sry for the delay. i dont remember how much they cost but its the arctis nova 7 headset

so, since today, randomly, and only while playing games, my mouse randomly stops working.. the leds still keep on shining , the mouse looks connected, but nothing is happening when i'm moving my mouse. when i unplug and plug it back in again, it's working fine untill a couple of seconds later, when i'm moving it again.. it stops working again.. I've already redownloaded the steelseries GG , i've uninstalled the drivers, and let it reinstall, nothing seems to be working. Anyone else with this issue ?. and maybe with a sollution? thanks in advance
Anyone?..
please someone help me, it's soooooooo annoying
is it posible to ad the Elgato Capture card hd60 pro as a sound source in steelseries gg?

Hello, I made an Eboy-style configuration for my microphone via the app and I can't be heard loudly In game and on discord while I listen to myself via the app I hear myself quite loud
So randomly my nova 7 dragon edition headphones go into a broken state were they can't be connected, turned off, re paired, or factory reset. There just "stuck" with the bluetooth light blinking.
When it gets into this state the only thing I can do is allow the battery to drain so it turns off and then when I turn it back on everything is back to normal
When it gets in this state none of my devices (android phone, steam deck, windows 11 laptop, linux desktop) can connect to the headphone either wired OR wirelessy. I already got the headphone replaced through the warranty is this just a known issue on the dragon edition?
is there some way to force shutdown the headphone? I guess pulling the battery would work but I don't know how easy it is to get to the battery and couldn't find any guides online
You should definitely contact #official-support if you haven't @slim acorn
Yeah i did and already gotten them replaced. Was wondering if this is a common issue or something
Oh just figured out how I can force it to shut down
If I hold the power and Bluetooth buttons at the same time for a few seconds it will shut off and when I turned it back on everything is working
The problem is it sometimes gets stuck and just pressing the power button or the Bluetooth button doesn't turn off the headset
I have a similar issue with my arctis nova pro wireless. They get stuck blinking and won't connect to the hub and the only way I can get them to turn off is to remove the battery. Once I do that a couple of times the quick blinking will kick in and connect but I don't know how to consistently get them to do that. They also de-pair between every session
hi , im using steel serios mouse for long time , i notice that the angel snaping option need to be devolped , cause some time when plugen the mouse it active the linear and some time it dost active the linear and i find that the non active for the linear is more nice when i put it ine medle lvl 6 , but every time i restart the pc it bring me the linear so plz fix this

how do i close out an app like spotify on xbox using the apex pro mini?
Completely confused about what happened, suddenly couldn't open it today, and got an error 8 message. Someone knows what's going on, how to fix it?
The audio on my clips seems to not be playing, even though all of my audio settings are on for them to record. Is anyone else having this problem?
im having a similar issue, but instead of audio still recording, when i check capture and audio settings, theres ZERO devices found (despite literally having a mic and headphones and the only way to fix it is completely force stopping moments)
super annoying cause ill occasionlly have like 45+ new clips that are all just totally silent.
Guys I just received the arctis nova 1 headset and the mic is non existent
like even my walmart headsets mic is being detected
anyone know why its not working when it literally has no reason not to work
I understand that arctis novas need 4 to 5 pole cords, but would a regular 4 to 4 pole work as a temporary fix? Ive heard that they tended to have a few issues with audio volume and the mic not working, but I really just need to get the audio working temporarily. Can anyone confirm if this is the case?

Hello people. Today my GG app told me I have error 17 with my sonar. So my headset is working only in bluetooth mode. Any advice what to do to fix this issue? I tried updating the app, even reinstal and it still didnt work.
anyone know how to improve clipping/recording quality and FPS ?
desktop capture keeps closing by itself as soon as i turn it on.
dont bother, no one is coming to help you... don't get why this channel excists to be honest...
I agree no real help here at all.
What is the problem?
You're welcome to help others if you'd like more people to get help. This server is not a support server so there's no support staff here. This is all described in #official-support :)
But lots of people do actually get help here, not everyone of course
Gotta get back to work sorry

anyone know how to improve clipping/recording quality and FPS ?
have a look in the settings of SteelSeries GG
why is it crossed out?
its just not routed to any channel, drag it to media for example
youll prob want that there
did that but except the pc sound i hear nothing... but on the device i can see the connection it is weird..
speakers seem to work
headset not
ok, it seems there had been some "optional updates" wich where not optional to be missing

wtf i have one usb port where it is working i think that is the only one connected to the Motherboard

Hello, I have a few problems with the application, specifically with cs2 clips
1.1. My sounds are delayed, the shot is much, much earlier than the actual kill
1.2. My game is terribly quiet on the clip compared to the volume I hear in my headphones
1.3. The bound clipping button works with a delay + how to turn off the sound
My steal series isn't loading when I click on the app on my pc

What happened to the device priority list in settings?
Its switching to whatever it wants so I went in to fix it and the setting is gone
Nvm I found it. If anyone else is having this problem, its now built into the device selector in sonar
Yeah, I'll have a buch of clips that are dead silent for no apparent reason, then others that are totally normal.
why cant I use a separate USB mic with arctis buds?
probably will need to return. With 2.4 dongle it does this and the mic does not work, without it all is well but cant use the buds of course
That’s a pc issue, not the GameBuds?
yeah, I know. Can't use em for intended purpose it seems though
Don’t have a different port to use?
dedicated usb-c doesnt work and switching and swapping ports hasnt worked yet, havent tried each one yet though
Aight
anyone have any idea why my clips are 1080p despite these settings? my only idea is that i have a 1080p monitor, though i figured it would upscale
it won't scale up unless you're also upscaling your desktop resolution
you'd need to run your games in 1440p I believe
GPU software probably has the ability to scale to something higher than your monitor
ahh alright ty fellas
yep it wanted one I wasnt using
Anyone else have an issue with their arctis nova pro headset having robotic audio? it only started happening recently i have no idea what could have caused it tho. I've tried every fix i can find online. Anyone have any suggestions?
why is my chat mix knob not working
why is it able to be used in gg but not on my headset how do i make it go back
Guys i just got the Arctis Nova 7 wireless and I constantly hear myself. I feel like i might go insane hearing my own voice every time i speak and I'd like to ask for any advice
Arctis 7s won't charge after a few years and I'm trying to replace the battery and turns out they use Torx security screws, lowkey frustrating
ended up buying HS80s for half the price lol
Does anyone know why my voice is coming over quietly despite everything being turned up
whats the difference between leather and airweave cushions
I mean I can obviously see they look different but how do they feel
how can i switch the sonar settings like i put the wrong device
do you have the Xbox version of the gamebuds?
I just turned on my arctios nova pro wireless for the first time but the sound quality is awful. But they sound perfectly fine when I connect them tomy phone. Anyone know how to fix this?
on streamer mode, under the master devices, I'm not seeing the "steelseries game" available from the drop-down for the stream mix. anyone else having this issue after the update?
I don't think Game would show on the list. the only virtual device that shows is Stream, and the rest are all physical outputs like headsets/speakers/monitors/line-outs
anyone find a fix to the moments audio delay issue?
try enabling the new beta capture mode? https://support.steelseries.com/hc/en-us/articles/34379494702349-How-to-Enable-Moments-Capture-Mode
hi, i just bought the arctis nova pro headset and something about to sound is just off i cant even explain.. it feels like im in a studio or something, is there a way to change it?
So I enabled this and I dont see the beta capture
I'm not sure if it's indicated anywhere what capture mode is active, the support post just says it'll automatically select
i unfortunately don't know much about the capture stuff, i just know there's a new mode in beta
Does anyone know why my voice is coming over quietly despite everything being turned up
Take it back and get a different make
no i dont think its a problem with the product it just sounds "dim" if that makes sense i really dont know how to describe it
I have a similar problem. People keep telling me my mic is very quiet despite all the settings being turned up. The Sonar website isn't any help and neither is the discord if I'm honest..I think I'll send the headset back
how about your noise canceling setting in sonar? too much of those could cause issues, esp the ai one which id keep it off
Ive not looked at that one yet, thanks
Just got the Arctis Pro Wireless, staight away noticed the white noise/ statis, can this be fixed?
Is the nova pro wired and wireless the same thing?
Other than the battery swapping and weight
I can't find the noise cancelling option
do you have sonar on?
I do
go there click on mic and scroll down
Ok
in the top theres game/chat/media/aux /mix buttons
is the apex mini not hot swappable?? my S key is finally dying with constant double presses on a light press and a million of them on a full press. Tried to swap the switch with a cherry blue but I cant even get the Apex switch out without enough force to wonder if im actually going to seriously damage sssssomething
no, they're all soldered in.
thatss incredibly unfortunate
Still no different unfortunately
since i install the steelseries app for the audio i get this pop up but i still have all my audio should i just ignore this error
My Arctis Nova 1 was working perfectly fine till today my mic stop working and idk how to fix it nothing ive found can so is anyone able to help me

only "chat" is work
Are you using Sonar at all?

is there a reason why my stream pc the sonar will not conenct but on my game pc its fine??
playback from mic
same issue here, except i can hear things
i just realised that my mic doesnt even show up
The way I fixed it was switching it to a different USB port and then it started working again
im using wireless tho
Yeah me too but you know the Bluetooth adapter what plugs in by USB
That's what I move to a new USB port
yea i just did that
thank you
And it worked
Husband thinks it's because of the update on Sunday what most PCs had
ah thxs
boys
my setting change from right channel 100 with surround audio but when i use my mic it changes to 0 any tips
the mic is set to 44% so try opening the device manager in sonar and set it higher
Hi, can i disable mixer, but use sonar?
With the arctis nova pro wireless, does the multiconnect have a shortcut to change inputs?
the website says "One headset. Two devices.
Toggle between PC, PlayStation, Switch, or Mac with the press of a button." But from my experience, i need to press and hold the big wheel, go into the usb input option, then change inputs
I was hoping for a quicker change like double press the back button or something
hi, i had the same problem and the only solution I could get was to cleanly erase the steel GG sonar and reinstall it
hi
my headset wont turn on i tried resetting with the factory hole and still nothing. i have a serious game in 2h and i need a fix ASAP. it says reconnect even tho its connected
Hi, from where I can download the old sonar version?

hello guys
i have a question like i got my new artics nova 5 and how can i turn of that echo thing that i can hear myself bc its so anoying plz tell me fast
@round holly
sorry for pinging but i really need it now
@tulip harbor
Many SteelSeries headsets come with Sidetone, which allow you to hear yourself through the headset’s mic for better clarity when talking.
For most headsets, the volume of the Sidetone can be lowered in SteelSeries Engine, which is part of GG. GG can be downloaded here: https://steelseries.com/gg
If you have a “Playstation” version of a headset (such as the Arctis Nova 7P) then your headset may have a physical wheel on the headset for turning the sidetone down.
For analog headsets that use the 3.5mm headphone port, sidetone may be generated by your on-board audio devices. Please refer to your computer manufacturer’s support for more help
Don't ping mods or staff for support

Hi
I just buy steelseries artic nova 5
But when i use in discord
My frend say my voice low
I pull already my mic
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to "reply" to your message in moving my post instead of using the @ symbol to ping which I understand is against the rules if using it on mods...but I can't find where you moved my post to for some reason. I checked in the gaming channel but I can't find it.
i think he meant he moved it to this channel from the gaming channel
Moved it here from the gaming channel
also to answer your question:
Sonar. Engine, and the Arctis Companion App all come preloaded with many EQs and sound settings for your favorite games. We encourage trying out these preset EQs, and tweaking them from there to get the audio that's best for you!
Additionally, you can check out #1209138827571232819 for additional community made Sonar configs for use on PC games!
Please keep in mind that everyone's ears and audio preferences are different, so one EQ that's great for one person may not be perfect for you. We encourage some experimentation and tweaking to get your perfect audio. Be sure to check out the link below for more info on how EQs in Sonar work!
connect it via cable
and try again
had an issue with my headphones but after few tries it started the update
Hey! Is there a way to bind windows & + to use the magnifier with my Aerox 9 mouse? When I try and do a custom macro it just opens up the windows search bar.
also got the same problem here
sometimes windows can intercept a macro before it gets to GG, so the workaround is to bind some other key, then after making the macro just right click on the temporary key and set it to what you want
like this
Yeah still nothing new, I'm going insaneee bruuhh!!
Try running the GG installer without uninstalling first
Already did that yesterday, but I'm gonna try again
btw i see that steelseries gg is built on electron, is there any way to open chrome devtools? So i can check if there are any errors or smth?
nothing changed
Bummer. Have you tried doing a full reinstall? Make sure you note down your settings
I will try full reinstall

Anyone had no sound on arctis nova pro wireless before?
I can see it's "making" sound i just can't hear anything
Image
hey just a quick one
I have the arctis 9 connected to my PC
for ages the mix was working fine for playing games and using discord, setting the Game output to my system and Communivations to earphones
but since like 3 /4 weeks ago, whenever discord is using my chat audio, none of thee game/system audio plays
Ive reset my windows setting loads and tried sonar but Im getting nowhere and ChatGPT only knows so much lol
I dont use the headset for streaming and Im using a 3rd party mic, so I have my headset mic just rolled up constantly. Just want to listen to my friends on call, and hear my game audio
for some reason it wont let me put my headset mic or any mic on my microphone input, is there anyway to fix this?
hey does anyone know why steelseries sonar streamer mode isn’t working for me? It’s not outputting any audio. It used to work without issues but now it’s suddenly stopped working
i think that's correct, but sending a direct e-mail won't work, it'll block anything that's not submitted through the website bot
hey I'm not really good with these sorta things but I bought the steelseries arctis pro wireless and my mates on discord are saying the audio is horrible and my S's are going right through them. Downloaded GG software and tried to change some things but nothing seems to be working. Also seems the software has since been updated on all the videos I'm tryna watch so the menus aren't the same :/ getting really stressed out with it
my mic and my CHAT(only) is not working while im using sonar but only in VALORANT it works perfectly in discord , or any other game/app
please help
what's your audio settings in valorant?
