I was thinking all I would do is shut the PC down, swap the mice out, start the PC back up, and the SteelSeries software should continue on like nothing ever happened. Is there anything more I need to do?
Yup
Nah, you nailed it. Shouldn't be anything else. You MIGHT have to re-do your mouse settings, but if you were using the app to do the settings, it should just keep it rolling
I did that with my Steelseries Arctis 9X headset. Warrantied it out, connected the new one, and it retained all the settings and even allowed me to save them to the onboard memory
feel free to tag me or DM me if you have more issues. Buncha people just spammed me to get on COD, so....I'll be back later lol
Perfect. If it worked for your Arctis, then it should work for my Aerox! Thank you for your time and I appreciate it!
Does anyone know how Sonar decides which device to set for playback? It doesn't seem to remember my settings after computer restart or toggling Sonar off and on
also, my dongle for my Arctis Nova 7's doesn't seem to light up anymore. I actually have 2 (one for gaming, one for work) and neither light up
helppp!!! i cant get discord to go into any of the mixer options and no one can hear my discord on my stream
Bruh Iāve been using my headset for 2 months and I still canāt use the mic
yo blackhearts helped me a few weeks ago and my headset is without sound again
why does sonar ruin my audio inputs?
first set your inputs how you want them, then go to settings>sonar and turn off backup device switch
ill try it tomorrow
i really wish my keyboard wasnt being stupid
ok well if you could just have a quick look back through the chat and see all the people i've helped and see that they've had similar issues that would be great
what headset?
hey there, I can do this, I was literally doing this last night in the free tech support I held lol, I can make it so any app or sound will come through your mic
that answered my question as well, thanks
well, first question. Other isn't really important tbh
I can still help you though friend
basically my dongles for my arctis nova 7's aren't lighting up anymore, like the led. Not a huge deal, but strange that both stopped working. One is connected to a Windows 10 machine, another a MacOS machine
both are on a usb-c extender
theyre laptops aren't they
mac is laptop, windows is a desktop
ooooh
umm usb-c extender has it blown the LED maybe?
or worse not supplying enough power
I don't have the mac on atm (shut down for weekend), but it actually does seem to light up w/ it plugged directly in
let me plug windows one directly
hmm, either my front panel usb-c is dead or it doesn't seem to like it...
plugging back into the extender and it connects, but no led
possibly, but it has worked for December
yeah?
nope, beefy machine
ok good
if it used to work and now doesn't, I would say one of two things either LED blown, or somethings not right with the voltage, I would also check to see if it works directrly in the back
also can you control this LED from the app?
check that
I unfortunately don't seem to have a usb-c on the back of my computer. However, I got my mac and confirmed that that dongle's LED was working. Plugged my windows dongle in and could hear my headset connect, but still no LED. I think LED is just fried
umm
could be one more thing.....
have you got any other RGB control? tell me if the LED works while the computer is booting or in bios
nope, I'm RGB-less
my tower is behind my monitors anyways, I'd never see it =P
fair enough, at least the other one is working yeah?
both work just fine as far as connectivity, just the indication LED is dead on one. It's not a huge loss tbh, the LED was going from lit to more brightly lit when connected, so not really useful to tell state at a glance
thanks for the troubleshooting ideas
you're welcome! you should be able to get a new dongle from steelseries for free if yours is in warranty
It should be. Like I said, got it in December
IF YOU NEED HELP, I will be in the general chat playing guitar
anyone know why my steelseries sonar is randomly switching device outputs to defaults? Its getting really annoying when in the middle of a game for the audio to go from working perfectly fine to switching to monitor output
I can help you if you join the voice chat
yes i do
should join the voice chat and i'll help
if people are still having audio problems please let me know, or join the voice channel
sup
hlo
I have problem with engine. Does anyone can help me?
yeah, im just helping some others and then i'll help
Yep exact same thing happening to me. You didnt get a fix by any chance did you? lol
My dude! Yes you were right that was the problem. I dunno why it set to anything else other than my headphones but yeah it was set to the monitor speaker. Tyvm man
dose anyone know how to fix echoing on sonar
Thank you, I'm waiting
software is not starting.
lets go
Out of curiosity, aside from gaming obviously, is displayport better than HDMI for anything?
still not starting?
reinstal software and now is starting
any other issues let us know, we're doing tech support in the voice channel
I just got here
cool
What am I doing now
Okayy I'm coming quickly
ok
can you reply to my message please bud?
Hi All, anyone knows why everytime my computer goes to sleep or the screen turn of, when i turn it on again, the default output of the sound from the steelseries GG is my monitor instead of my steelseries headphone
im using windows 11
yeah I can fix this
i think this is the culprit. i turn this one off and all good
do you still need help with this?
Why is my aerox 3 mouse lagging when im downloading something
join the VC and we can take a look
also you should probably ask someone in an MSI server....
anyone can help me figure out what is correction of mouse movment
no, i think the app got messed up with an update so it will probably get fixed in an future app update
yes
can anyone pls help me? i have a ps5 and i bought the arctis 4p and when i talk on discord there are some weird backround noices. how so i fix it???
how do i fix it*
Hello, my sonar microphone is not strong enough, we heard nothing at all. Whereas when I speak with the same microphone without using sonar the sound is perfect
yo everytime i start my pc i have to switch my audio input how do i fix this its quite annoying
@stark rampart can I post a server link where I help people for free? I would not be making any profit off of this and you can clearly see from all of the people I have helpd that I know what I'm doing
where can i find the 64 bit version of steelseries gg?
yo can someone help me do my sonar settings? š I am pretty bad at it and my mic is awfull without em
Hello, can someone help me with sonar, after I started using it every time I stream a program tab (YouTube, Audacity, etc..) in discord people can't hear any sound and when I stream my whole screen they hear echo and they can even hear me even when I'm muted, am I doing something wrong?
Anyone knows why my Arctis Nova 3 don't work properly? One time mic is fine but headset doesn't work, other time mic is dead but sound is just fine. Any ideas?
so my rival 3 mouse (wired one) the left button stopped working sad not big of an issue cause i can remap one of the side buttons but when i do that that button also not work only if i remap it to left button when i change the side button to for example the right button it works
although i accepted that my left click is broken, it is very weird that i can't remap other buttons to work as a left click cause it just don't work for some reason?
hard resetting doesn't work either it turns off buttons that aren't broken too
My steelseries gg wont open and gets stuck on an infinite loading screen. I've already tried the youtube video on the steelseries youtube channel anyone have any other solutions?
force close it in task manager
the fact steelseries made a discord server to solve issues is kinda sad
Hi all. Is it possible to balance the right and left sound of my Arctis Pro in the Steelseries software? In Windows isn't show me the Balance option...
there is an option in windows but its hard to find
ive done that a bunch and it still doesnt work
whoa there, fr?

I am pretty sure I can do this
i task managered it so it stopped
lol
but i opened it to have it for clips
yup
and it loaded forever so i closed the window and then i saw my mc was laggy asf
that's odd
and i checked tm by cpu hihest and gg core was there
lol
umm let me know if it keeps doing it bud
also anyone with problems im free again
Hey guys I have a question
Hello everyone
i've installed GG everything works fine but there is a sound keeps happening like every 20 seconds it's sound as connecting USB to the pc .. and GG keeps refreshing in taskbar .. need help
I bought the apex pro tkl wireless, which has the omnipoint 2.0 switches. I had it for like a week and spilled a little water on the left side of the board, so I flipped it over right away. I left it for like two weeks flipping it in different orientations, and even using a fan
I have four keys that donāt work, itās most of the left important keys, such as tab(which keeps registering and messing everything up) and my left shift and two others
Is there any way i can turn off that awful tone on the SS APW whenever you begin to use the Bluetooth
And I checked because I wanted to desolder the broken and switches and put new ones on but they donāt sell omnipoint 2.0 switches
yo every time i start my pc i have to switch my audio input how do i fix this its quite annoying
SteelSeries Sonar has āDevice Fallbackā that will automatically switch the outputs on Sonar.
Fallback can be triggered when a device is unavailable (such as when booting your PC or unplugging a device), or it can switch outputs if it detects if a Nova headset is turned off, and automatically switch to speakers.
This fallback functionality can be adjusted or turned off by going into the settings in GG. You can find it under Settings > Sonar > Backup Device Switch.
You can also adjust the order in which devices fall back to. This can be adjusted in the same options menu. Simply scroll down to see the full list of devices.
yo, sonar stream mic isnt being picked up as any noise on vrchat
yall got any solutions
umm sounds to me like something aint configured right
I can fix this if you need? @echo wyvern
yes please
I do use game save manager to avoid those issues, using backups
I gonna leave this server I think as I am not active and I didn't find a particular benefit.
@slow riverhave you checked aliexpress for those switches ?
No I havenāt I looked online the omnipoint 2.0 switches are like nowhere
Anyone know of good eq settings for the arctis nova pro wireless for rainbow six seige? I'm on xbox
yo, my aerox 3 wireless doesnt work wireless anymore, it says its connected and full battery but only works for a few seconds before not working
it works wired tho
Plus Iāve been talking to customer service and they have no idea whatsoever on how to fix it and thereās no manuals thereās literally 0 support from customer support
When it should be a simple easy fix to change switches even if they make it hard, desokdering and soldering the new switches on would be viable I guess but the omnipoint switches are like nowhere to be found, for being the most expensive keyboard they offer, with the headline being ( the best keyboard in the world) or fastest whatever.
Plus plus, the normal non omnipoint on the board such as the f1 -12 keys are just the red normal switches they sell and on the back of the board they have two metal soldering points holding them on there and these omnipoint donāt seem to have any or some more intricate way of connecting them so you literally canāt fix it even if you want to I donāt know what do you guys think
I could send a photo too of the board in a bit
do you know for sure if a switch broke? or if it's something else like a damaged trace or some component on the board that shorted?
can someone help me with this problem i have? https://discord.com/channels/299040363123965952/1233894584459853946
I suppose I donāt know, thatās why I want your opinions, I had gotten water onto the board and immediately tried to drain it and dry it with a fan and after two weeks of drying itās the same issue, I have my gg settings to all white and when I press a key it highlights it red just for testing purposes, and when I turn my board on the tab key keeps registering so everything is messing up hardcore but the thing is the white light isnāt turning red for the key leds, so itās a little confusing
Like what I mean is the tab key is registering endlessly but the specific key isnāt highlighted in red like itās being pressed
Iām gonna be real thereās so many different things on the board idk what it would be for sure but I figured the only thing I could do was switch the switches
Did you manage to fix this issue? or sent it back?
guys
^
can anyone tell me why my artics nova pro db level is stuck at 0?

Hello, I need help with Sonar, after turning on the computer, in the GG application in the sonar tab, the playback settings for sound output change - Blue yeti (microphone). I cannot turn off the audio output itself in the Windows panel, because then the Blue application and presets stop working. sound for the microphone. Is it possible to set it somehow so that when you turn on the PC and headphones, these options do not change? I tried with streamer mode, but then after turning on the PC I have to disconnect and reconnect the microphone for it to work

I can
Does anybody know how to remove these key switches
The top you see the two soldering spots those are for normal keys. But the omnipoint keys donāt have the soldering spots and I donāt know how to remove them
Like for example taking esc key out would just be melt those two big circles and pull it out but for the tab key and all the others the soldering spots arenāt there
apparently you just remove the led and pull the switch
But that also means that I canāt just switch out the normal key switches they sell on their website
yeah
Because I need replacement omnipoint 2 switches
So I really have no option they donāt sell them
They just expect you to buy a whole new keyboard even when theyāre $250
When it would be an easy easy fix
Youāre saying the led has to be taken out first?
The piece on the top of each switch?
Well the led I mean
are you sure the switch itself is the issue?
I honestly donāt know bro steelseries support would rather I die trying to fix it myself then to help me
Did you go up a bit and see my issue
Itās on chat

I really donāt know how to know

Hi Guys,
I'm new here and only just downloaded Steel Series.

Thank you š

A huge thank you to @radiant gorge

I know something has probably been said but have they found a way to fix the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless PS5 Low mic problem other than having to unplug the DAC and plug it back in?
If anyone has the chance to check out my ticket in community support that would be great. Not sure what to do anymore

Oh ok
yes, but as far as i've seen it's only available in egypt NEW
does anyone know why my support request was instantly closed and I didn't get an email about the closure? Is this even the right spot to ask the question as well?
i need help š i posted a community support thingy. but my discord is stuck in game audio and when i click and drag it to chat audio nothing happens
kept getting notifiactions there was a new update for GG, but it wouldn't install. I was all the way back on v57. had to download the newest version from the website
IVE FIXED IT
Anyone know if it's possible to change my Nova pro wireless hub from PC/xbox to PC/PS5?
no
aanyone want to trade?
is there a way to have different length clips key binned so like one one min clip and a 2 min clip and five min clip on diffrent key binds
Playboi Carti - Tundra / Hood By Air (Official Music Video)
how come my clips from the GG moments are basically me frozen with adio?
I can't believe it but I actually have a guy for this he's in an awesome metal band called Recreant I'm sure he knows a thing or two, let me know if you want?
this is a resolution problem I actually helped someone with the exact same problem with pubg, make sure the resolution is set to the same as the monitor, then try fullscreen then clip
Does anybody in here know why Moments is telling me auto clip isn't available for cod?
works for me
works for my buddy as well. idk why its not for me
i even moved COD onto the same drive as GG
@bright talon sheesh I'd always have cod on your fastest drive, which should also be the same one you have windows on, right onto your problem, tell me, are you playing on fullscreen?
nope. borderless
and is the cod resolution different to your monitors resolution, can you check that for me?
nope its the same
OK, can you switch to fullscreen and try to clip?
i can get it to manually clip
it's probably happening because it's detecting the game as "cod"
I can take a look after I shower if that's cool?
this^
that's why I said it's weird coz it just says "cod"
the only way i could get it to detect was to go into my steam directory and select the application from there
let me rephrase, the only way i could think of
that's fair, anyway would you be willing to let me take a look in the support channel after I shower?
absolutely
šš»
also @slender brook you're good people I may need your help with this at some point
it might be as simple as rescanning games in the settings

Hello someone knows why my aerox 3 wireless work on only wire or wireless?
I cannot get Turkish translator right now, but I will let you know when I can @unborn veldt
yeah I beleive I helped @narrow heath with this exact same problem
?
I think he needed to completely uninstall steelseries.gg, clear the cache (yes it stays after uninstall) and then make sure all of the drivers for steelseries are completely removed, then reboot the PC.... I do have some other fixes but I cant see your screen so I can't tell...
If this will help I love you. ( I thought i have to buy new mouse... )
if this doesn't work there are other potential problems that I would need to go through with you...
If this wont help I buying new mouse
IDC
well I know all the fixes but sure waste money š¤£
I tell you what, do you want me to go through the fixes with you in the support channel? @shadow crag
Wait i need to do first thing
sure thing!
yeah you should see steelseries client there, but also in C program files, there is another
get rid of that too
hey guys, anyone know if you can get a popfilter for the alias pro xlr?
It should not have
ok good
is the mouse working?
umm ok
I wish more people would believe that I can help, thank you for your time, let me know if you have any other problems
NAH
Doesnt work now
Hi, I just got a nova 7 and I messed around with the sonar for a bit but I was wondering are there any guides for tuning the config to my liking? Or maybe preset configs etc.
you need me to take a look bud?
so my question is, was it working before u reinstalled steelseries app?
when you sent this?
today..
yeah
Then it was working
but now NO NO
MADA FUCk
what the
IT WORK
BUT IN GAME
NO
WTF
ok so I want you to exit Riot Vanguard and then I want you to disable riot vanguard from startup in task manager then I want you to uninstall steelseries app and clear cache and reboot
On game it doesnt work
anyone else having problems with sonar? it says starting for me and its taking way too long
Then install app
?
Im not profesional but maybe just turn off app
i did
even restarted my pc

I dont know what you should do
Thanks for your time but now im done
do you have riot vanguard installed?
When im without valorant my mouse work in 100% but when I have valorant turned on my mouse work on only wire or wireless
I can play like that but that's annoying
so basically riot vanguard is so invasive that it actually blocks steelseries.gg, I will try to find a workaround for this but it's not likely I'm afraid as steelseries is a very irresponsible and uncooperative company.....
I am sorry my friend this is the ONLY problem I've had in the past 4 days that cannot be fixed....
alr
no problem
but at least I hvae showed you the problem and the cause
It's not really a bug, it's steelseries not communicating with Riot
oh yeah @shadow crag make a ticket with them, make sure they effing know this problem man!
Can someone explain to me wich one is for steps to better hear?
this mouse, unfortunately, has no shoulder buttons on the main buttons. so it's not for me. i need a side button on the right mouse click side.
mic sidetone is EVIIIIL

how can I stop Sonar from changing my input and output everytime I reboot my pc
SteelSeries Sonar has āDevice Fallbackā that will automatically switch the outputs on Sonar.
Fallback can be triggered when a device is unavailable (such as when booting your PC or unplugging a device), or it can switch outputs if it detects if a Nova headset is turned off, and automatically switch to speakers.
This fallback functionality can be adjusted or turned off by going into the settings in GG. You can find it under Settings > Sonar > Backup Device Switch.
You can also adjust the order in which devices fall back to. This can be adjusted in the same options menu. Simply scroll down to see the full list of devices.
thats not it
i'm not talking about changing outputs ON Sonar
i'm talking about Sonar changing my DEFAULT WINDOWS outputs and inputs
I've already toggled off automatic backup device switch setting
I've disabled Sonar's Chat, AUX and Microphone
put my games in Sonar's Game section for 7.1 audio
and when I reboot all chat/aux/microphone enabled themselves
and changed my default windows output and inputs
you can't turn that off. if sonar is on then it'll set itself as the windows default no matter what and enable all VADs as part of the booting process.
why would they create a perfect software and don't let people use it as they want?
I can't record my discord and game at the same time because of this
and when I move my discord audio to gaming it sounds bad because of the 7.1 settings from the Game channel
you make a new software and put 7.1 audio in it and then ruin it like this
that's a limitation of your recording software. most recording apps can handle multiple audio streams just fine, it's just the basic ones like nvidia are limited to only one audio stream. moments is built into GG and it can not only record game/chat as separate devices, the editor even lets you change the volume later in case your friends were too loud in discord or said something you'd want to remove later.
regardless of all that, if you really are just limited to one audio stream in your recording app, you can just turn on streamer mode in Sonar and then have your recording app just record the "stream" output
Moments messes up with PC's performance while playing and I don't really know if it still has it but when I first checked it there's a unnecessary gif playing in recordings from Moments which advertises Steelseries GG.
streamer mode will "crush" all the audio outputs to a single audio stream for streaming/recording
you can turn that off
I'll try the streamer mode
thanks for the informations
it doesn't work with streamer mode either..
is there any way I can force nvcontainer to Master channel?
or like can I add another nvcontainer element and add it to Chat?
is there problems with the app on PC.? i can not log in
yeah GG has been flaring up lately. seems like every update is 2 steps foward 5 steps back
okay thank you
apex pro mini fn Orange light is on but f1 f2 volume down hotkeys are not working, please help
It was working until 2 days ago, but it doesn't work anymore and my keyboard is new and I don't want to waste my warranty.
I found another person experiencing the same situation, but I haven't been able to reach her yet, she is not active
I bought the keyboard 2 days ago
Do you think I should keep the files and try resetting the computer?
I'm trying right now
Only the orange light is on. I haven't set any macros before, I was using the direct f1 f2 f3 combinations, but now when I press the button nothing happens except the orange light.
steelseries buton
if you use a keyboard tester like https://keyboardchecker.com/ does it register any keys like the F1 keys or the volume keys?
Test all keys on your keyboard with this easy-to-use website. Works with any keyboard and any browser. Simply press any key to test it.
also, i thought volume up/volume down was on the N/M keys?
hey is anyone here very good with the steel series sonar section of the app
i would really like some help
yeah, the confusing thing is that the volume key commands aren't on the number keys, they're on the B/N/M keys. so if they were working, then it was probably some other app doing it and not the keyboard itself.
I mean you can change it in the keyboard settings, but I think OP would know if they did that?
there's #1047622297382567936 and #sonar which might be better for asking questions
@rotund yoke
When I press the ss+m key on the keyboard, it is supposed to mute or lower the sound, but only the orange light is on.
all other keys work,
if you use the site i linked above, does it say that it's registering media/volume commands?
if the site is saying that it's detecting the volume key commands but nothing is happening, I would have to assume there's not any hardware issues and there's some software on your PC that's intercepting the keys and preventing them from working?
I don't know if I should reset the system.
Maybe something else might be triggering it.
How do you make up with that?
I don't know it's not working
Can you let me see how you operate that ?
I am in now, but none of headsets is showing in Engine
having issues with my headphone microphone, steelseries arctis nova 7 had the headphones since july, randomly today the microphone stropped working
@everyone Just started streaming a few days ago, my keyboard and mouse are up to date with no issues to be seen but sometimes when transitioning through OBS or making too many clicks at the same time my mouse and keyboard will go mute. I cant click on anything, and i cant type anything, causing me to have to hard reset my PC. anyone else experienced this or know what can help me? GGs
yo any chance anyone can help me with the set up of my nova 7 wireless? its getting pretty frustrating I finally got it to work but there is palyback of my input into my headset
and additionally i downlaoded gg and now none of inoputs or outputs work
im really confused with all the inputs and outputs and how gg even works
I had the same thing happen to me, before I had to trash my 7s and upgrade to the nova pro, this video really helped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6CL1-4tEh0
Purchase the Arctis Nova 7 here: https://steelseri.es/97a
For any issues or concerns with your new Arctis Nova 7P, please contact support at support.steelseries.com
I would fully reset them and start from scratch
i watched this which helped me set it up but then i downloaded gg and now nothing works
check pm

Can someone help me with the steel series clipping system. Im playing fivem but its not detecting my game, how do i fix this?
Use desktop capture thats what I do for FiveM
does it not record the whole time then
I have it set for 5 min clips and it works
aight thanks
I'm running into an issue with steelseries gg hub not detecting any input from my blue yeti mic. Any ideas?
It will detect the device but it's not registering my voice or any input. It will detect input from any other device
does anyone know if they archive their sofware patches?
i would really like to revert back to a version prior to this version of sonar. it has been nothing but trouble. it takes me an hour everytime i turn on my commputer to get my headphones to even play sound and its getting a little rediculous at this point..
for real same
ive had nothing but good experience with steelseries headphones or idk how long (10 years?)
until this garbage sonar thing
any have any issues hearing themselves twice
S/O Tech team - Steelseries GG has slowly been getting better, seen far less issues with my devices over the past few months.
anybody else's sonar not loading ?
hey guys my Arctis 7 just stopped working out of nowhere and shows not connected to PC. It turns on and it just lets me hear my clicking and any outside noise but no noise cancelling or connection
what should I do
can someone explain to me how the boom arm for the mic suppose to be setup
because i see some people with mic upside down and it's really confusing me
Hello I have am Arctis nova 7x and discord can't find any inputs when I have it enabled. I fixed it yesterday then it come back again today but the fix action I had didn't work this time. Anybody able to help?
Hey all, where can I ask advice on Steelseries products? I might be in for an upgrade and a bit confused about some stuff
Hi
Are there a mobile app for steelseries headsets?
What is the best setting for calls setup? I have a background noises. I just bought yesterday the Arctis Nova 3?
Nope :)
I guess I'll ask it here š
I have an Arctis 9x atm and it's feeling its age a bit, I wouldn't mind getting a new Nova however I can't find a model that has the Jack passthrough like the 9X has on its dongle to get my speakers to take over once I turn off the headset.
Am I missing something?
Only the Pro wireless has that in the Nova lineup with Xbox support as far as I can tell
Ah thanks! I saw it yeah for 300ā¬ š¬š maybe better to find a new 9x somewhere that wasn't sold. Any particular upgrade on the nova if I'm happy with the 9? I don't care much for sound quality
What's good everyone
I'm using the Pro wireless and I love the battery system especially. Not having to worry about charging the headset is fantastic
Ah right they give you two batteries right? How do you swap them can you do it during a meeting? š
I usually just plug the headset while using it when it runs out so it doesn't bother me that much tbh
You live with no sound the 5 seconds it takes to swap them and for the headset to turn on (automatically)
Or you swap the batteries at the start of the day and don't have that problem :D
Haha fair enough š thanks for the insights!
You're welcome :D
@radiant gorge My mouse work! Today valorant had update
Hi, I have just bought and opened my new Arctis pro headsets but after getting them to connect and then update to latest firmware update I'm stuck with them not reconnecting back to my PC. I've tried re-pairing them to the DAC and restarted my PC and every other step. But nothings happening.... Please help me
hopefully someone can help @austere tinsel but a lot of us are havin that same problem
ever since they did a firmware update and updated sonar, there have been all kinds of connection issues. on my work computer, it sees the headset but refuses to play and sound. on my home computer it does the same thing, but if i restart the headset a few times and unplug and plug back in the DAC ill get sound eventually (on my home computer anyways)
also try double checking this
Well, I got it to connect through BT, but that's just not the way I want to use it you know..
for whatever reason, it doesnt set it to the headset automatically all the time
yep. same problem i have with my work computer. blue tooth works. DAC/wireless doesnt
and its been weeks
Nova pro wireless..in white 
looks like im refunding my black one
2000zÅ za sÅuchawki kogoÅ jebÅo
oh, I'm awake....
yup, they know where they went wrong....
w
I have a question: I have a problem. Everytime I start up my computer I have to go to Sonar and manually have change my sound output. It worked 1 month ago. Any suggestions for a fix?
@lost yew
stop for a sec, I'll fix it now
but first I need to tell the mods something
Why cant i login on the app
MODS! please put out a notification about the fact that Valorant has had an update and now mice that weren't working now are! thanks
boom

right, @lost yew open steelseries app, go to settings>scroll down on the left>backup device switch> turn that crap off....
@lost yew you are welcome, you have been helped
so how do i make it so that the headset actually works @radiant gorge
you message me @vocal island
@radiant gorge should I turn all of it off?
yes my friend, but the top one will turn them all off
ahh, I see
Thank you!
@lost yew reboot the PC all the way and then tell me if it fixed it, if not I can take a proper look for you bro
steelseries sonar is a bit annoying to deal with :/
Keeps switching output
If im gone for like an hour it just switches
@radiant gorge it worked! Thank you!
I can't seem to change the Bindings for my Alias Pro in the Engine
Streamer Mode is off btw ^
Can someone help me with janky steelseies sonar btw?
Yo @finite urchin and @radiant grove ask @radiant gorge
Really disappointing that the white colourway only came to the nova pro wireless
He is the support of the audio stuff
that's coz you may have riot vanguard running, the driver may not have installed correctly, you may need to restart .gg with admin permissions, IF none of that works, do a clean install of .GG by uninstalling it and clearing the cache (%appdata%) afterwards, and also from C program files
@radiant grove THEN if it doesn't work contact me, that's all the help im putting in here dont wanna take up too much space in the general
YES I CAN! it's all I've done for the past 4 days
so i've had this issue where if i'm gone for like an hour the sound output changes
Hi cuckie
and every time i shut down
it changes output
back to nvidia high defenition audio
@crude blaze šš»
not you @crude blaze
@finite urchin Steelseries app>settings>scroll down>backup device switch> turn the top one off, it will turn all of them off
@finite urchin make sure all the input and output devices in mixer look right, then reboot your PC
THEN
send a ticket to steelseries telling them to give @radiant gorge a job!
indeed
thank you, I've helped over 100 people in the past 4 days
š½ beam them all
"alien noises"
š“ yeah that was their worst ping yet
stop @ everyone pings
i told them to fix sonar and stop ignoring their customers in that stream
that was far more interesting than a white nova pro (why they ddint have a white at launch is beyond me but ok)
this, I agree with all of this
Hello everyone. My Arctis 1 headset will not turn on any more. Battery is fully charged, and the only thing that works is resetting the headset each time I want to turn it on. Also, I can't turn them off, so I have to let it turn itself off after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Also, Sonar really sucks. It always switches the output to my soundcard.
oh jezz, my arctis nova 7 is starting to make crackling noises once a while
my arctis 9 broke in a similar way. full battery but only turned on while charger plugged in (worked on battery after turning on) and only connected with bluetooth
admittedly, my headset is just a couple of weeks more than 3 years old
my arctis 9 broke in 4 months (bought 2022 jan start)
current nova 7 is bought in february start
idk whats up with steelseries at all. they make expensive good stuff but only the mice and keyboards have quality that you can use for years. headsets die so fast
I'm pretty gentle with my stuff, so things tend to last longer than for most other people. My main annoyance is Sonar.
i got you
Steelseries app>settings>scroll down>backup device switch> turn the top one off, it will turn all of them off @pseudo basin
I've turned it off, but I actually use it, while I'm streaming.
what's annoying is that when I enable it again to stream, all of the outputs are reset to my soundcard again
I shouldn't have to set all of my outputs over and over again.
I just got a new nova pro it sounds horrible anyone know the best settings
does excluding devices with the list at the bottom of the fallback menu work?
yeah it's a horrible POS but I can take a look at some point if you like? I fixed this for a guy the other day......
I see no exclusion list
oh, did you turn the whole thing off? the list goes away if it's off
sounds like you're using the in built in chat headset bud
why do vocals in music on my nova pro sound like theyre down a long empty hallway
that's weird even if it's off that sonar is changing inputs, usually once it's off it stays off and won't switch
it's currently on so I can d!ck around with it
idk what that means
ah. there should be a list if you scroll down?
though you said you use sonar for streaming, is that with streamer mode on? fallback doesn't usually go through it's logic when in streamer mode
I do not enable Streamer Mode
I didn't notice that was in the settings menu. This is extremely helpful!
problem solved i just uninstalled GG
obviously a little late, but disabling spatial audio might have fixed it
yeah idk what it was but its the worst sounding pair of headphones ive ever purchased
even without GG installed
still horrible
and perhaps why did sonar suddenly start disconnecting sound from my headphones and connecting it to my monitor every time my pc goes into sleep mode
that's odd. My Arctis 1 has amazing bass response compared to other headsets I've tried.
I had arcis 7 before it and they sounded really good so i figured these would be even better
Got arctis 7+ today and i have problem when i join a call for example in discord i lose all sound in headphones any quick fix i could try?
but they sound so bad and I cant figure out how to fix it
they make vocals in music almost completley silent and it sounds like the singer is 500ft down an empty hallway
weird and echoey
that's got to be some kind of post-processing
maybe idk
I have no idea how it all works but its pretty annoying that I have to mess with it so much out of the box to make it sound decent
like I cant hear any vocals in this song rn lol
yeah that's definitely a software setting somewhere.
ok
make sure Windows' spatial audio is turned off
yeah it is
it's irrelevant to Steelseries?
my brothers in christ how i can make so i dont lose all sound when i join a call, issue only on arctis 7+ no on old setup
#š¬-general message this was helpful for me
got it fixed, it was even more stupid than i thought, i cant use KVM and had to directly plug into USB 3 on motherboard
kinda sucks cuz now i will have to juggle cables between pc and laptops i have but at least it works
anyways, it's been fun, but I've solved my problem and had a chance to complain about Sonar. I'm out! (leaving the server)
I never had that issue. I had my Arctis one for a year or so and it was the best quality headphones id ever used at that time
You can talk about other stuff here :)
Couldn't disagree more. CS is the pinnacle of easy to understand, impossible to master
but I may also be biased
What's the best way to clean the Nova7 cushions?
hello, what is the difference between Nova 7, 7P and 7x wireless headphones?
Have you considered looking at the product page? :)
There's a section that compares them: https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-nova-7#compare
yes I saw but I didn't understand exactly the differences.
oh, thank you! then i will take the Nova 7 white wireless
So chatmix dial is not working on pc?
if i'm using arctis 7+x
for the nova 7x, the chatmix dial should work on PC if the switch on the dongle is set to PC/USB mode
for the arctis7x, I'm not 100% sure but I think the chatmix dial won't work on PC, even when in PC mode
Yea, İts true i'm using arctis7x and it's not working on pc
ChatMix works on PC with 7x
Via Sonar
Arctis or Nova?
Well, the Chatmix in Sonar is compatible with every headset, so technically yeah it'll work, but I've seen a lot of people here saying the wheel doesn't do anything in Sonar and it all needs to be done manually
Arctis
yea it works via sonar but
You can't do it by turning the wheel
I'm just going by what the product page says
u have to do it manual with ur mouse
so its being useless sadly š¦
Gotta love OLED Burn in
This is why I will continue to stay away from OLED Monitor I still have a TN monitor from 2013 I still use every day daily drive. No Burn in
i have a general question if thats okay
from yalls experience with steelseries products
ask away
yes 4 of them
3 headset
1 mouse
when a products warranty is confirmed, they talk about 'like for like' does that mean i can use the warranty coupon on the same product. like my apex pro is covered under warranty, can i use the like for like coupon on another apex pro?
im assuming this means yeah
but i wanna be 100% sure before i do anything
I think this is to cover them if they do like a custom colour/theme product if they fail at all they can replace it but it wont be the same skin/theme
ohhh
so it covers things like if a style is out of stock theyll still cover it
other styles i mean
im bad at wording but i get what you mean
ye like if you got like a pink headset or what ever colour and they cant/have/make them anymore
i would think that what it would mean
not sure you woud need to speak to support/email them
anyone can fix infinite loading screen on sonar?
its stuck on turning the sonar on its just stuck
close riot vanguard
ion have that
how do i get my arctis nova pros to not make everything sound far away down a hallway I cant stand it spacial audio is off
worst audio quality ive ever heard
I cannot take it
I just got this app, I had to restart my pc and that fixed the issue. You can also go into the general settings and disable sonar and then turn it back on that might fix it
Does anyone know how to completely get rid of an app that I moved into the mic section? I've restarted my pc and disabled it but now its created a duplicate of the app and then old one is still there. To add on to this I have also created a new account and it had the same thing already loaded in there from my other one. Going to try and uninstall and download it again to see if that fixes the problem
For @everyone whom has problems with Steelseries GG and anything related to sound. Please, please, refer to this guy @radiant gorge : they're amazing. They're cool, funny and most of all will SOLVE your problems as they solved mine and those of many others. They won't ask for anything, and will just use their time to help you. I've asked for help in here and open a ticket on Steelseries website, litterally wasting a MONTH to ends up getting answer to ask for a refound; and in just an hour @radiant gorge helped me solve what the manufactorer couldn't. So thank you again for your effort and your patience, I wish you all the best. And again: Let them HELP YOU.
ayo should i buy the arctis prime?
Is there a way to boost the arena 7's speaker volume? I have to turn the dial almost to max just to get a good volume
I have recently bought the Arctis nova pro headsets and everything was fine for about the 1st week but now the Sonar audiochannels have suddenly stopped working, I only get sound output before I route apps to other channels or if I set all to play on default headphones channel. Also sounds work if I turn of Sonar but then I don't get 3d sound etc..
Not sure if anyone can help but feels like a £300 waste of money at the moment.
I can fix this, i'll let you know when im free
Question the charger I have never really fit my headset. I have a steel series artic 7. Any recommendations
(i replace the earmuffs with a different one xD)
I actually just fixed it shockingly was just an issue with the dropdown menu apparently defaulting to a different output device.
I didn't even know there was a dropdown selection on this.
Hey i had hyper x cloud 2 before i bought arctis nova 7 for 220 $ and i find the sound awful i can't understand where ennemies are from in games such as valorant
any typs / help pls ?
you using sonar?
Hi guys, I have an Arctis Nova 7x and when the physical volume button is at maximum, the headset makes white noise, is this normal? Is there a way to remove this noise?
sorry for the late reply but I can take a look if you want?
sounds to me like you have sidetone on
the feature to hear my own voice?
it is disabled
I am on Windows 10. I deleted all my Steelseriesgg moments by mistake. My clips are all gone. Is there anyway I can get them back? There is nothing that is SteelSeries in my trash can
then no, but personally I'd check if theyre on another drive
they are not
@pale musk this is an xbox headset yea?
@radiant gorge I mean I have like 90 percent of them on a discord channel, but im still kinda upset by it. There's nothing I can do?
ummm not unless you're willing to get a degree in cybersecurity and use a tool called G-parted to recover forensic grade partials of the clips, not really I'm afraid, I'm really sorry man, I know that's not what ya wanna hear but that's how it is bud
unless by some miracle they saved to onedrive
aaaaand what do you have this plugged into buddy?
@radiant gorge alright, thanks for your help
@silver delta I'd just be glad its not anything too important bud
How is chat doing
actually works with xbox, but is for pc too btw
@dense dragon awful, I've been helping people on here for like 5 days straight because steelseries doesn't even have a tech support, I now know more about their software than they do and they don't even have the decency to at least offer me a job or compensate me for my time or efforts, I've saved the mods countless pings because people demand help and some people have the actual balls to just leave my help on the table 𤣠sometimes they don't even reply, so yeah, that's how i'm doing
@pale musk no, it's not for PC
@pale musk It may say that on the web page but that tiny USB-C with all that voltage flying through it, you need some pretty nice USB ports and unfortunately, we don't see many of those anymore
right well since no one needs proffessinal level audio help for free, im clocking the F out....
Yo the new artist nova pro wireless comes with a carrying case!?
I've used the original for 1.5 years now I want a case tooš

hello, is there any way to disable / hide AUX channel in Sonar? I saw some youtuber without it, but couldnt find anywhere how to achieve that
Settings > Backup Device Switch #sonar message
SteelSeries Sonar has āDevice Fallbackā that will automatically switch the outputs on Sonar.
Fallback can be triggered when a device is unavailable (such as when booting your PC or unplugging a device), or it can switch outputs if it detects if a Nova headset is turned off, and automatically switch to speakers.

My arctis nova pro wireless constantly switches the left and right channel. I hear noises, which come from the right side, in my left ear. I can't find any permanent solution. Please help!
I'm a Mac user too but I doubt it will happen any time soon if ever to be honest. But make sure to ask for it :)

Reach out to #official-support if you haven't already :)
youāre doing a great job helping everyone but youāre doing work they never asked for so you canāt really expect much tbh but thanks for helping the server anyway we really appreciate it
Why do you feel initialed to compensation when no one is asking for your help? Some people probably appreciate it but Steelseries does have tech support. By email? I've dealt with their support in the past and it was a wonderful experience.
Breaking my heart/j
can someone help me with my arctis nova pro wireless
I don't work for SteelSeries so I can't really know for sure, it's purely based on my experience with them
I was referring to the Mac part

are the bearings of the arctis nova 3 washable?
By being a Mac user?
Yeah but my name's also mac
Eh whatever it wasn't a great joke
š
I've used a ton of gaming laptops and I never used them for gaming
So now I use a MacBook as my laptop and my desktop PC for gaming
A MacBook is far superior for my needs. Unrivaled battery life, amazing screen, build quality, speakers, keyboard, ecosystem
Apple tax used to be a thing, now they're just straight up great value
Well I'm glad you were able to find something that works for you
Was there ever a fix after that one Nvidia update? I have been having to manually switch everything to the headset via sonar instead it being automatic.
Was there ever a fix for that?
Ban yourself
why do these headphones suck ass
Hello, I have a problem with Arctis 4 headphones (2.4ghz). After turning on the PC, they work at 120%, the bass is very crackly and squeaking, the only thing that helps is disconnecting the transmitter and reconnecting it.
my settings for music:
Steel Series server needs to make more emojis so when Iām arguing against people with Astros
yo im using steelseries nova pro wired, and something wired is going on, my sonar is turned on, and im using speakers when i want to chill and headphones while gaming, but my chat mix is not working from the hub, any ideas?
hey, The Prism lighting feature on my Rival 3 wireless mouse isn't displaying the selected blue-purple color; instead, it only shows orange
someone know how to fix it?
can some one help me some reason my stream cant hear my discord comes
thats what my looks like and want let me move discord or anything
some apps like Discord have their own audio output settings, so you need to go into the settings and change your discord output to be "Sonar - Chat"
once it's in the chat device you can enable it to be audible on stream/personal mix with the icons above the volume bars
Only time will tell :)
Hey Hey! Anyone have any audio profile for Gray Zone Warfare created in the engine?

Could anyone help me with this? https://discord.com/channels/299040363123965952/1235306914057818133
My headset wont work when using sonar, i cant listen to music on spotify or hear sound on chrome. I am using arctis nova pro
chu

I can fix this man, just helping someone and i'll be right there!
I am not on my pc right now, can you tell me how to fix the issue?
I bought steelseries arctis nova 7. The normal microphone of the headset works, but the sonar microphone does not work. It appears as a fault on the gg software. I cannot use the sonar microphone in any game. I would be happy if you help me.
umm not really, everyone's PC is different, and there is a LOT of different software that clashes with sonar in such a way that it prevents the drivers from even being able to be used, I will have to literally see your screen and go through all of the known problems which I have a list of, I have not had a single audio issue which I haven't been able to fix in the past 5 days, I am not able to type everything out as it would literally take half a day and people wouldn't read it anyway so yeah it will be a lot easier and a lot faaster for me to just look at your screen and tell you what to click
Hello! Is there any indicator in Sonar or on Nova Pro headset about active ANC?
chu?
@jagged pagodayes ok here is what you do with the headset powered on you quickly press the on button once on your left earcup you will hear it pip once or twice if you hear it pip once anc is on if you hear it pip twice it is off
Thank you very much!
@spice sluicedo you have enough harddrive space too export them ?
From time to time I hear very weird and (irregular time-wise) small tick while using Nova Pros. Could this be caused by using Sonar + Engine presets EQs?
@jagged pagoda is it wired or wireless?
Wireless. DAC is not even 1m away from me
cool
umm weird ticking sounds like either a voltage issue or a driver issue, are you on a laptop by any chance?
I wonder if this might be caused by low quality USB-A I've connected DAC to.
yeah that's what I was about to ask lol
hmm okay, I will switch it to different source (straight to PC, rather USB switch) and try to see if it occurs again
no, stationary PC
hmm now that's weird
I assume no4 usb slot should be fine on MOBO?
yeah change which port you're in
currently it's usb2
yeah give it a whirl if it keeps happening, change the cable
also just to let you know, you can actually change the ANC by holding the dial in and going to Audio Options
yea, I found this one, yep
one more technical question - I assume connecting it to usb (from CPU) would be more beneficial?
not really, the DAC and headset are designed to run at a very specific sample rate and depth, this means that if it couldn't achieve these it probably wouldn't be getting enough power to even turn on or more importantly you wouldnt be getting any sound at all (the driver would just behave erratically), since the USB headers are all connected to your MOBO you should be absolutely fine in any that are 3.0
HOWEVER
from what I'm reading, connecting to USB with CPU connection, can be beneficial to avoid additional "hops" before data is transfered from MOBO to CPU, so in theory, data stream should be faster
i will say one of the safest way to guarantee yourself no audio problems at all is to use a Samsung type c to type c, they're designed to enable transfers of massive ammounts of data at incredible speeds, so 96000hz at 2.4 ghz
so stock cables from Nova Pro set aren't good?
(i bought Nova pros yesterday, so still learning)
they're fine usually but type c to type c would ensure you to not have any problems
ohh both end type-C, because it has the fastest transfer! Yea, makes sense
thank you!
but am I actually loosing anything with those SS cables?
ummm I would wager probably not, BUT c to c would be the absolute best way to ensure no problems, the difference we're talking here is so small that it wouldn't make a difference unless you were playing heavy metal guitar, through an interface from an amp sim looped BACK into the interface and then routed through your discord output...... then you would notice the latency lol
oh yea, I dont think I will ever get such setup haha
well, I will give it some time and judge if I will keep the headset or the alternatives
and im on a lpatop
yea, but I dont play guitar nor listen to heavy music haha
yeah
also the nova pro wireless is absolutely incredible once you get everything working how you want it to
what games you looking to play with it?
will see about that. Took me one day to actually set it up properly.. Nowhere in the internet there was an article about automatic EQ switching based on game
competitives most of the time
oh yeah i know, steelseries are awful and they don't even have real tech support
sadly
but I managed how to automate profile switching
i simply created separate profile for each game with EQ and assigned it
yeah in that case I will tell you right now, get that headset working and you have the best audio equipment available for gaming currently
IF you still have trouble with it by tomorrow I will show you evrything I can to make it better for you! it's so sad to see people having trouble and SS won't help anyone so I decided to step in and help
interesting, I switched usb to CPU input as we discussed and I think that for now that tick is gone. It was noticeable when I was switching active windows (alt-tabbing between game and discord). There was this tiny small "tick" probably caused by EQ switching
now I can't seem to hear it, so maybe yea, transfer quality
yup, I would deffo try the C to C as well
aight, I will buy one maybe, but for now I am pleased
btw, how much would I lose from not using Sonar with Nova Pros?
more like feature / quality wise
WELL
I heard it's good to switch to wicked cushions as the stocks ones wear out quick and are uncomfy
you want to play competitive FPS I would say you just straight up NEED to use Sonar, anyone who disagrees is either an idiot or is bad at their game, wicked cushions: hell yeah that's a straight baller move, it's what im doin when i get paid, also, huge pointer, make sure that the EQ and AI noise cancellation are off for steelseries sonar - chat: discord already has its own added BS, you don't wanna filter more of your chat out otherwise you may end up missing callouts...
the reason this headset is so good isn't just one thing, it's lots of little things done well: two batteries, bluetooth, ANC, surround sidetone (transparency), fly mute, bendy mic, and an ok headband, if the entire sonar was just a thing for the dac, I would have literally no complaints, and neither would anyone else, but they had to add moments and a random 3d aim trainer?? awful stuff
oh yeah and the line in/out on the back of the box is singlehandedly one of the best features I have ever seen on any gaming accessory, ever.
hands up who just checked and was like "huh that's cool"
I dont think I will ever use it, but I guess that's nice
you can plug a mic into it
couldnt agree more
moments doesn't run unless you explicitly turn it on, and 3DAT doesn't even install itself unless you actually boot it at least once.
i mean it's nice to opt-out of moments etc
anyways, time to get some sleep. Thank you for all the help! I feel calmer about this "issue" now. I'm almost sure it was due to usb 2.0...
sonar is opt-in too. in fact not many people know that you can skip login for GG and just use engine only for device changes
very handy for those quick fixes 
I wish Sonar was less retard-ish and actually switch profiles automatically, as Logitech does it
you are most welcome @jagged pagoda happy to help and if you ever run in to any problems in the future let me know ok? I seem to be the only one capable of fixing these things for some reason as SS don't have technical support
