It’s better to generally leave it off imo cause it can ruin the soundtrack or mixing or whatever of certain parts of the gme
Yeah I think so
Left right yeah?
it does sound a lot less surround idk a lot about audio
hi does anyone know if a apex pro tkl is good?
fair enough, thanks for your help
i searched '7P' and scrolled through the results haha
trying to find best EQ settings for 7P on a range of games, so i went digging
ah yeah fair enough
yeah
Do you know if the eq settings u make on pc affect the ps5?
I wasn’t really sure
yes i do - thank you. I've got the software installed and i've swapped between a few of the presets. The recommendation seems to be Performance for FPS and Immersion for open world / third person
Yeah I heard that as well thanks
I’ll switch to immersion since that’s what I mostly play then
Hi, I need some help with my new steelseries arctis 1 headset. When I plug in my headphones, both front and back, the headphones give off a buzzing noise. My realtek audio drivers are all up to date, and I have no idea what I can do to fix this issue.
my pc is a hp 750-170se
Try muting your MIC and see if the static persists . If it does not - you need to disable side tone . If it does - you'd have to identify the cause for it (could be mic feedback , the volume limiter being disabled or static in the connector) .
I responded to the apex giveaway with the info needed, but you guys haven't contacted me back.
hello, I'm having an issue with my newly purchased Arctis pro wireless. the headset is not recognized by steelseries GG so I can't download the PS5 firmware. no matter what I do. I tried 4 different computers and 1 mac. headset work so it doesn't seem to be defective. any help is appreciated
How do I use the 40% off on the rival 650?
so ive dropped the thing that connects my arctis 7x to my phone wirelessly but it broke.. how can i fix this, it works on my pc
I'm not sure if this is the place to ask, but is the "ARCTIS PRO + GAMEDAC" really worth it? Considering all the "high resolution sound", if anyone has it and is willing to share their opinion, it'd be of great help.
Might be worth it for you, hard for anyone else to say
True that it's a question of opinion in a sense, but is the difference for an avarage user that huge? I am in need of a new headset regardless, plus, it's one sale. So I figured why not, but I am reconsidering if the gamedac addon is worth it, for the high res audio as well as how practical it is.
It's not a bad headset. As long as you don't expect mind blowing audio quality and are ok with the inconvenient cables it'll be fine. For me at least, the dac is pretty helpful and I can recommend it, but I can't speak for the overall value
Is it normal, that right joystick sits deeper in the hole, than left one?
I have the arctis wireless one, on mobile in a vc I can hear myself talking, but I dont hear my friend through the headphones, how can I fix this problem?
Anyone know why I do not see the microphone here?
I bought the Arctis 3 and it's not here
Anyone know?
My question is probably unusual but I'm hearing impaired and I wear earing aids (even with a headset).
I was thinking about buying the arctis pro or 7 but Im always anxious about buying an headset I dont know because some hurt if you wear them too long (like 5/6h a day) and my hearing aids tend to make that even worse. That s sadly not something I can try beforehand and was curious about others ppl experience with these headsets. Apologies for my average English 
Hi @white zephyr, I own both of those headsets and neither feel uncomfortable after extended periods of usage. A lot of it depends on your ear size, but the earcups are soft enough, I wouldn't think it an issue. If you're deciding between the two of them, the arctis 7s have a significantly reduced clamping force, so I imagine they'd be more comfortable with hearing aids.
No problem
?
anyone?
i even tried factory resetting the headphones but it didnt help, its a issue with the connector im pretty sure.
it doesnt work on my pc sometimes too, can i buy a new connector anywhere?
Assuming that's a Stratus Duo, the sticks on mine are both even, but unless it's affecting performance or comfort I would't worry too much about it
If the headset is within warranty then you can make a #official-support ticket and they could probably send you a new transmitter, but you can also buy one forectly from the website. It's also on sale right now https://steelseries.com/gaming-accessories/arctis-7x-usb-c-transmitter
okay, how long did the warranty last
also do I still get it if I bought it from another site, not steelseries
The standard is 1 year for the US and I think Canada too and 2 years for the EU and UK
oh it's definitely not been 2 years
But if you bought it from a third patty store you should check with their customer service and return policy and see what they can do for you because generally SteelSeries support will just tell you to go them. Unless you bought it from Amazon in which case you shouldn't have a problem getting help from SteelSeries support
okay
Hey folks 👋 a search of this server pulls up a number of reports of random beeping with a couple different models of headsets, but from what I can see no real resolutions?
I've just received a new set of Arctis 9's and while connected via bluetooth to a macbook there's continual random beeping (there were no beeps while connected via dongle to my PS5). Sometimes minutes apart, sometimes a string of beeps within a second.
I've sent in a support ticket so we'll see what comes back in the meantime, has anyone successfully resolved this issue?
So, this keeps happening, even with Slay the Spire disabled in the SS engine apps section, or even if I kill the SS task entirely, and it's always accompanied by a second-long pause
hello everyone i recently got the Arctis 7 wireless headset. and i use it for audio output and input starting yesterday it's output has not been working very well
i joined a discord call with some of my friends and said hello
but it did not pick up my voice
now i can still hear through it
just not speak
i have not done much troubleshooting because im not to good at that
and i did not want to mess anything up
please help me @frank sparrow me if you think you can help. thanks!
it says it is working properly in device manager
@frank sparrow basics first, is your discord set up for push to talk?
no
have you tried the mic check in settings?
to see if your mic is picking up anything at all
it is just very very faint if i put it almost inside my mouth
that was almost inside my mouth
(i have updated my audiodrivers)
have you installed the steelseries engine software?
seeing if I can confirm what it uses
(i have been able to talk before without downloading it)
Download the SteelSeries Engine 3 software for the best gaming experience on Windows and Mac.
@frank sparrow right click on the volume icon in system tray, click sounds, go to recording tab
right click the mic, properties, levels tab
this?
Ace, do you have automatic voice pickup on or are you messing with the slider?
i dont see mircophone boost
real answer is learn to use voicemeeter, but that's probably a bit beyond the average person
i have never touched this slider before
i just plug my mic and it worked
i'm sorry if this is making your day hard
dude, no one here works for SS, if anyone is engaging they're opting to do it
so it's on them if you asking questions is somehow making their lives difficult lol
ok lol
(#official-support is the official SS reply channel)
almost done downloading
Some people here do, just not support
ok done now what
I realise that
feel like that was a given
I'm prob just bad at computer stuff, cause yog kinda lost me, but i played valorant with my headset and the mic worked fine, but in discord it never picked up and was scratchy, I can't show my setting right now cause I'm not at my computer, but I had to change my discord from automatic pick up, to I think -97 decibels for it not to skip and sound clear
With messing with GG stuff too
i dont use discord to talk i use Xbox game bar
Oh my bad lol
sorry, not coming at you, what I was trying to imply is thatno one replying in this channel is required to do sofor their job
Although devs are pretty active in #moments-report-a-bug with GG related issues
engine, select the mic, mess with settings to find out what works (again not trying to be dismissive, that's just what to do next 🤷♂️ )
its ok
its not working i may need to go back to best buy and get some help with it but thanks for your help
😁 👍
will also try a firmware reset
So I just looked at the warranty page-
"All countries outside the EU: 1 year warranty from date of purchase
EU: 2 year warranty from date of purchase"
Brexit happened-
Does that mean in the UK it's 1 year not 2?
When it says "EU" is that EU for Europe, or EU for European Union?
UK is still covered by the 2 year warranty
When will the arctis pro wireless white back in stock? Need one for the birthday for my brother end of september

Hello, I recently bought the artic 7 wireless, and when I try to use the wireless option with my laptop, by connecting everything of course, the right side of the headsets does not work, and the left side has very low volume, and the computer kind of starts glitching and i cannot watch any youtube videos. Does anyone know how to fix them?
Since the recent updates to steelseries GG my rival 650 Wireless no longer shows the battery icon whether its charging or not. Its kinda annoying because i'm having to rely on the flashing illumination warning on the mouse..But who's using that to determine how much battery you have when you're gaming..you're not gonna notice the mouse flashing at all. Anyway to fix this?
Thanks. It's Nimbus+.
am i the only one that gets a possessed keyboard after a while? like i was 100% sure mine broke and used a different keyboard for a day then used it again because "why not" and its magically working again
and by possessed i mean it'd press random buttons constantly when plugged in and after i plug it out the buttons being pressed are still being pressed nonstop
and you'd think the problem is with my pc but i plugged it into another pc and same problem
weirdly enough i have tried completely removing the engine and anything related to the keyboard and it still did the same thing, doing that in combo of restarting in several different orders didn't change the outcome till i gave up and had it plugged out for the entire day
and this happened twice now
i was wondering if i should get a steelseries apex 5 or a steelseries rival 650 wireless with the qck prism cloth rgb xl mousepad im prob gonna get. i currently have a apex 150
If you like clicky switches then your gonna like the apex 5, the mouse is also good but it's up to you on what to get
i i quess im going with mouse because the member sale is on it
i like loud af switches
I do too, I don't want them tho. The general noise over time gets annoying to others and I game late at night and i don't want anyone to wake up and I get caught
i do want loud switches
Then get the apex 5 for apex 7 blue switch
Same thing aside from switchs but one comes in a tkl model
can someone help me
It seems that it's unavailable I guess

I cant create a support ticket on this garbage support page
it keeps taking me in circles. Anyone know how to make a ticket?
☠️
I used capitals and it worked.
One of the most convoluted ways to get an RMA ever. These guys must REALLY care about standing behind their stuff
Ok

my arctis pro is showing up as a 5 in the engine. im pretty sure this is because i had the cable replaced a bit ago, but is there anyway to have it show up as the CORRECT headset?
Does the Arctis 9 Wireless have noise cancelling?
no
Is there any other way to get in touch with steelseries support other than opening a TKT with them on the site ? I've been ignored for 3 days since asking for a warranty replacement for my artics pro wireless.
I think I'm going to post on reddit.
steelseries gg is not opening
no
Now steelseries gg isstuck loading
What are the best settings in the equilizer for the arctis 7
my arctis pro is showing up as a 5 in the engine. im pretty sure this is because i had the cable replaced a bit ago, but is there anyway to have it show up as the CORRECT headset?
I’m have an Arctic 1 wireless but I found I can’t eat the Arctic 7 for the same price. Should I switch over or just stay with the one.
Up to you. It's generally considered a better headset so sounds reasonable
Thanks I’ll get it once I look at some reviews just to be sure
not the other way around, been ghosted by them on all social media platforms lol.
my rival 600 is literally unusable because of the side panels
can i fix it somehow?
like can i glue them back or something
You could, or you could contact #official-support for replacements

hello..i got a problem with my steelseries wireless pro and the GG app...it basically tells me i need to installa component in order to play with the equalizer via the app...i click to install it..the installation bar goes on..then it tells me to connect the headset..which is strange..coz they are connected..the oled screen shows that and im even listening to youtube music while im doing the whole process...
i tried to reboot the PC after the installation of the GG app...nothingits like the app doesnt feel my headset connected...its connected via the micro USB cable to the PC...and the headset itself is pairde with the transmitter...as i said..im listening to music..
and it tells me to reconnect the headset...
so nothing has been installed..
strange..
Keep the headset paired via the transmitter but unplug the micro usb cable from the PC
hmm..but if i unplug the usb...the transmitter goes off...should i connect the DC in while i do this?
coz i noermally power the whole thing with the usb alone
(i mean..above the DC in port on the transmitter it says "optional" so...since it was working fine twith the usb alone..ive always used that..am i doing something wrong?) 😦
i unplugged everything and left only the DC in cable connected...seems like is fine now..il try to reconect the usb cable now
as soon as i reconnect the USB cable here we go again...
im kinda clueless..didnt expect an over 300usd headset to have this issue..lol
is there a way to bypass the app and install the components it requires anyway?
I don't think so
then its really odd..ill give it some few tries in the coming days and reach out the steelseries official mail support..if nothing works ill return the whole thing to amazon..lol..hope to solve it..i had the previous model and they were awesome
Hi Everyone. I have the Arctis Pro + Game DAC. I have 2 issues, the first is that the DAC doesn't differentiate between a game or Discord (Chat). The second and newer issue, I have game sounds and chat coming through discord as if I am speaking. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Would anybody happen to know what could cause a Rival 3 wireless mouse to have input lag?
Rocket League only needs 8% of my GPU and roughly 18% of my CPU (+3GB Ram) to run 240 FPS
but Steel Series Moments needs 78% of my GPU to make a 720p 60fps 30s clip
how does steelseries know if i submit a clip into the hover app?
first of all, have a good day, I'm using the mouse named Rival 600, lately, the mouse is really crazy, I'm playing valorant while shooting, it shoots 2 3, it stops, I spray, the fire stops, sometimes I can't shoot at all + I can't turn the texts into blue by pressing the left button, I didn't know what to do, I press the dpi button for 3 seconds, it calibrates I guess it doesn't work. I click it 1 time by itself, it counts as 2 3 4 clicks, please help
So, i had this Steelseries Artics 1 Wireless for more than a year, probably 2 years, but the headset worked perfectly until now, the mic isnt working, in any program i open, i search every solution but nothing worked, i tried to use them plugged in and they worked, and the microphone too, so i am not sure whats the problem, anyone help please?

ima go OC my ram in bios brb
Hi guys, today, after a firmware upgrade done by Steelseries Engine on my Apex Pro, the Led Illumination doesn't work anymore. The keyboard works for 15 / 20 minutes, after that the Oled, the left key and the USB port's light located near the ESC key, start to blink and the keyboard doesn't work anymore "i can hear the sound windows use to alert for a usb disconnection repeately". I need to unplug it wait several minute and plug in to fix that, the illumination still down, and the key works for another couple of minutes before it start the issue again.
I've already tryed with another pc with a fresh engine installation, hoping that can trigger another firmware upgrade, but it doesn't happen, this issue follow the keyboard in any PC i've plugged so far. Any idea?
hello yall, i cant connect my computer with my new arctis x9 headset, i have bluetooth 5.1 but it just cant find the headset. any ideas ? i can connect the headset with my phone, and computer with my phone too
from all the online mods, there have only been 1,551 messages from moderators in #archive-user-support
and most of the messages are from alanhm or lennart
Yes, that's because I respond when I feel like it or actually know how to help with someone's problem. It says right in the description of the channel that you won't receive any staff help here. If they stopped what they were doing to answer someone every time they had a problem in here, the wait times for the official support tickets would be even longer. No one is entitled to a response in here. People respond when they feel like or know how to help someone with an issue. Otherwise you need to contact the official support on the SteelSeries website. I get that it can be frustrating when you have a problem with a product you paid for, but having a bit of patience with the support team will go a long way especially with the current pandemic still heavily affecting the US which is where SteelSeries customer support is based.
can anyone help me with my mice?

What does your engine look like
cpi is dpi for most intents and purposes
i know
so what's the issue then
the problem is i use the button to switch dpi,but the software didnt show the current dpi
it's showing as 1200 right now
did you update while this window was open?
?
close it and open it again
i mean when i click the dpi button, here didnt change
yeah
because those are levels
if you go from level 2 to level 3, that doesn't change the dpi of level 2
i don't know why it doesn't update if you're in the window, but if you close it and open it again, it should update
no it didnt
i know .... i dont know how to explain lol
I have a problem with my sensei 310. when I start up a game and play called Rust, my illimination is suddenly turned on. I've had this game and mouse for years and this has never happened to me before. Same config for years too. Any ideas?
It doesn't happen to any other games.
interesting
There was a new update Today. I've asked in their discord and no response, ofcourse it's loaded with people there because it's a popular game.
maybe you set a profile for rust wrongly ??
I don't have profiles for games
I've also turned scan games off.
It's as if the game is overriding the engine settings.
As in settings, it stays off.
Turn off rust integration in apps
@bleak jetty you are my hero! thanks so much 😄

hey my arctis 9x (connected to my pc with the xbox dongle) tends to cut out a lot. both the mic and the headphones.
it usually works fine until the battery is yellow, then it starts getting a bit laggy.
my steel series apex 3 and rival wireless are having seizure
like the colors wont stop flashing all differnet colors
ok i think you can go to engine and select the profile and move it to on board memory
vice versa
move it to engine then
how
im so confused
ok
Hey I am trying to use your software engine but the launcher it's all in Japanese I see no option to change this
Downloaded it from .com not .JP Region on my computer is USA English
You can set the language when you're installing the software I'm p sure
reinstall the software and select language there
oh
If you'd like I could try DMing you my installer and just seeing if that makes a difference
I was able to change the settings after logging it though the Japanese menu
Hm interesting. I'd also post this in #moments since that's the GG chat room so the devs are made aware of it if it ends up being a widespread issue
Although you're the first person I've seen report a problem like that lol
I'm having trouble connecting my arctis pro wireless to my laptop.

Anyone around to help with connecting a Stratus XL via bluetooth? Thing just doesn't show up at all and seems to be impossible to actually put in a ticket through the website.
Which of HID UsageIDs defined in SteelSeries Engine 3\db\database.db trigger "VK_C3", "VK_C4" and "VK_C5"?
I've discovered that 半角/全角 — HID UsageID 148 — triggers VK_F24;
カンマ , — HID UsageID 140 — performs JoySlider1 (but don't have NO VK code!);
無変換 (NFER|NoConvert) — UsageID 139 — performs JoySlider2 and also have NO VK);
It also will be good to assign a button to "Horizontal Scrolling" (that also doesn't send VK)…

@fiery nova well
I have Artic 1 Wireless and unfortunately the battery started to drop very quickly. There are no batteries on the official website, but maybe there are elsewhere. And if I still manage to find a battery, can I even replace the old one?
On the official site I can't even create a support ticket! Before it could, now it refers me to articles and FAQs. I don't know if this is normal, I personally don't think so
Pls if some one know something, help me, cus soon it will be unable to use my fav headset :(((
Moderators?

I’m having an issue with my arctis 9X headset
It’s won’t turn on or off
It’s stuck in a neutral state
The headset light is on
But the mic itself isn’t working
I’ve tried resetting it
But nothing is working
the OLED screen on my apex 7 just randomly decided to stop showing gifs, any and all assistance will be appreciated

They already sell Arctis ear cushions https://steelseries.com/gaming-accessories/arctis-ear-cushions
Hi ! I downloaded Engine for my MSI laptop, but the app doesn't finf my keyboard :/ Anyone to help ? Thk a lot
I have the MSI GS63 Stealth 8RE btw
uh so my arctis 9x just doesnt work for some reason, it happened about 3 hours ago
it was working fine until i turned it off. i tried to charge it but it didnt charge at all. i tried turning it on and that doesnt even work. any help?
Is the light on the side on?
I have the same issue, except the light on mine is orange.
no it just doesnt light up at all in anyway, i tried factory resetting but i cant tell if the paperclip pressed the button or not, either way it still didnt fix it
Oh ok.
This kinda sucks, just got mine two months ago and it’s already not working :/
yeah the arctis 9x is really just a scam, better off getting a pro wireless
yeah im starting to realize the 9x is probably the worst product steelseries has made since everyone else ive seen with an 9x have said "yeah its broken/has a major problem"
Hi! i need help with the steelseries app not launching
are you on the latest version?
I am quite new so i have no idea how to update it
force close it in task manager and reopen?
if that doesn't work, try uninstalling and reinstalling
All fixed thanks!
👍
Hi I got the Artic 9x a little while ago and the mic just doesn’t work and I don’t know why my friends say it sound like I’m in a hollow room anyway to fix without repurchasing love the headset btw but the mic isn’t having it
Bump
like i dont want to bang on steelseries for making a broken headset but goddamn everyone has an issue
what gives you the idea that everyone has an issue?
let me put it like this
ive been in this server for 2-3 days and ive been hearing non stop complaints on the 9x
plus i have researched on this headset for a week every night(cuz im bad at making choices when talking about money or preference) and i have never seen so many bad reviews for a product
im not having an issue and i hope never to get one but i mean for an headset that has been out 3 years, there could have been a version 2.0 with improved stability or reliability
Hello, I'm having problems with my microphone picking up my headset audio ( Steelseries arctis 3 ), I have tried everything, updating drivers, realtek, disabling devices, trying different jacks, trying different discord settings but the problem still remains (even if i mute the mic using the headset). Any help would be appreciated.
yes
Is there a workaround for Arctis Pro wireless not working on my PS5. No optical for the chat mix.
No I love the headset but the mic is awful
the mic is working, the problem is the mic also picks up audio from the headset itself
Headphones good i guess, but software is broken, i hope i can get new firmware update soon. I dont know why they dont let you downgrade
Just 300$ for nothing
Did you contact #official-support ?
does anybody know why my arctis 5 isn't showing on my ss engine?
headphones are working but it's not appearing on ss engine
i contacted them and waiting now
i have the same problem
i've searched and watched fixes for this but nothing's working
I was looking too, and nothing works by itself
you are on macOS or windows?
my arctis 5 can working on ss engine but cant download the addtional software
I'm on windows 10. it's a newly bought arctis 5.
this is what only shows up on Engine

Because he bought it a time ago he doesn't have a receip which is why im fustratrated at.
Simply when i wanted to setup everything i did what the instructions said, All was good until the headphones didn't wanted to pair. Tried do do it on nearly every other way but still nothing.
I can't refund it because no receip and it's why im that mad. No one in my friends group had the same problem. Spent 24 hours trying to do it but i just keping failing.
Any others way to fix it? I got the box and everything except the receip. Please help im begging. Already sent ticket to support but still. Maybe someone has solution
Windows 10
I dont know how to maybe reset it all or update the drivers. I have no clue how to do it
have you plugged it into the pc through usb?
that was my issue with the 9x
i didnt know i had to usb connect
Try pressing fn (steelseries key) + windows
nice thanks!!!

Hello guys, i'm using Msi Gs66 steath, and the steelseries Engine doesnt found my MSI keyboard. Tried to reinstall the Steelseries Engine 3 but still not work.
Thanks for reading smiling_face_with_tear
Msi can use engine 3?
Hmmm
What did you buy?💀
Steelseries wireless pro. After firmware update it cant connect to transmiter. 300$ to garbage
Get the gamedac or something
I forgot the name
And ofc is gonna be expensive
Its a premium brand (in my opinion)
And the product isn't bad, there are many things to consider if it doesn't work
Is it compatible? Are you using a compatible Bluetooth adapter
Really?
Almost buy arctis pro wireless with DAC
Steelseries wireless pro. After firmware update it cant connect to transmiter. 300$ to garbage
@lethal stump
Just pair it manually
Ong mfs be doing shit incorrectly and then be saying the product is bad
It's not pairing, i did all possible ways
I'm not, its actually not working
Everything was fine before i did firmware update
Then wait
For a patch
Simple
A update not working doesn't make the product bad
It's happens
just to make sure, you are the holding the volume wheel on the headset while it's on and the transmitter is pairing, right?
Why steelseries moments doesn't work
ok so
I would like to quickly ask why I can't access the sale

Hey guys, hope this isn't an extremely annoying common question, but this thing is killing me. My wireless Arctis 7 repeatedly disconnects for a second, goes silent, sends a beep rattling through my head, and then reconnects right after. Happens about every 20-30 seconds if im lucky. Only had it since April. Thanks
Try a factory reset or reinstalling the drivers. If neither of those work then make a ticket through #official-support

Been trying to set this up for hours and now I have a migraine from staring at this RGB system for so long. RGBs don’t work in or out the box. Only put it back in bc I’m probably gonna return it
I assume you've already tried wiping and reinstalling the software? If so make a ticket through #official-support and they can RMA the pad and get a replacement sent out to you
Software works for my apex pro perfectly fine. Not for the mousepad though
Alright then yeah make a ticket and get it RMAd
Returning it back to Amazon it is then 😔
Amazon could also RMA it for you. Actually if you bought it through Amazon you should contact their support first
I have an inquiry, which kind of Micro USB Connector is in the old Arctis 7? I bought mine (white if that means anything) in Jan 2017 and I messed up the connector pins (one too many times on the floor while charging), and I'm gonna attempt to replace the connector myself, I just don't know which connector type to buy :p
I haven't opened mine, but this is a picture from iFixit of what it looks like
so just all of a sudden out of nowhere my arctis 1 mic just stopped picking up audio and is now no longer picking up my voice, is this a know issue? is there a fix?

My situation is the same, sometimes the keyboard will not function when playing games (such as Apex Legends) and the RGB will flicker with random colors.
hey so i just got an apex pro tkl and im on mac and when I open up the software and go to engine nothing pops up. What do I do??!?!?! Pls help me
is it possible to wire the keyboard to the pc for it to charge?

Looks like the crackling and distorted bass is a known and common issue on Arctis 7/9 and maybe others too when sliding up the bass in the EQ and going over 80% volume in windows. Wi-fi only. I found threads from January where people complain. Others have confirmed to me on Discord. I can't believe Steelseries hasn't fixed this yet. And they sell them with a factory defect. Idk if it can be fixed with a firmware or software update. But they need to do something.
They had me broke my previous Arctis 9 for nothing, only to send me a new one with the same issue. 😂
When you say "crackling and distorted bass" how bad are we talking? I've just joined this discord because i'm fed up with the sound distortion that comes and goes from my 9x when on a discord call via my iPhone Bluetooth and connected to my xbox via MS wireless. Note its only the discord sound thats affected, its only me who hears it and it makes understanding what people say very difficult—its actually got worse as of late. Is this the same issue or am i experiencing something worse? There being a known issue is knew to me.
notice in the middle, I lower the volume and the noise disappears. But then I turn it back up and it appears
oh, no i feel like mine more full spectrum than that both at all volumes and that it affects a much wider frequency, like on mine you wouldn't be able to make out the vocals at all 🤔
How do i raise a ticket btw? I can't see anywhere on the linked to page that lets me do it
click on the chat button in bottom-right
and somewhere u should find the thing
to open a ticket
okay thanks, i did several laps of that but didnt find anything, but will try again
thanks, just found it under firmware update too
or try e-mail at support@steelseries.zendesk.com

Hey, new here. How can I connect a new transmitter to my existing Arctis 7p wirelsss headset (PS5).

I want to buy a new steelseries headset but im having trouble choosing which one to buy.
Can anyone help me?
I would like a very good experience for Single player games (i play a lot of them) and of course multiplayer (like being able to hear enemy footsteps in the right direction)
I dont have a budget
PC, PS5
but i'd get whats the most value of money
i am between arctis 7p and arctis pro + gamedac. But im not sure yet. the price in my country is: 7p 170euros and pro+ gamedac 212 euros
does anyone know how to enable calling on discord whilest listening to a stream and gaming on xbox with the arctis 9x
ive been trying every bluetooth but the handsfree doesnt let me do it
also i was calling with a friend on discord when i started up spotify on my xbox and now i cant change the volume on my pc with discord and she sounds very soft
ive already restarted my laptop but it didnt work(i also restarted my xbox) please help
My Arctis 7 is not charging anymore? why is this?
My arctis 1 mic isn't working any idea why?
I just got my steelseries products and when i want to open the launcher it just keeps loading and loading its happened to me 3 times now do i just let it load or is there a fix? (tried uninstalling and stuff but no good)
How long is this cable?: https://steelseries.com/gaming-accessories/arctis-cable-headset-4pole-35mm
ok cool, thanks
Kinda dumb that it doesn't say the cable length on the product page, but it does list it under the specs page for the Arctis 3 and that replacement cable should be the same length as the one that comes in the headset box
will the arctis 3 version work with arctis 5
The Micro USB connector that goes into the headset should be the same on the 3 and 5 so theoretically yes it should work, you just won't be able to control the 5 through the Engine software if you plug it in via 3.5mm to a PC
yeah i just need it if i want to use it on my phone
i just dont know where i put my adaptor
Ah yeah ok I was about to say the 5 does come with an adapter already but it is pretty small and easy to lose haha
Oof
everything on amazon is so expensive
just go to a local store and get a micro usb(male) to usb(male) cable
How is the arctis pro wirless sold out lol
Because chip shortages?
Did you get a fix for this?. I am having same issue.
It could be bleed through which can be fixed with noise suppression or input adjustments, otherwise it's a known hardware issue which requires an RMA
Noise suppression and other adjustments have not eliminated the bleed, been at this for 2 days now trying everything. It’s not looking good.
random question, but for the artics pro without DAC. Can I just disable the chatmix dial? I dont want to just randomly hit it a bit and it change audio settings, id rather it just be disabled. But idk if theres a way to do that
Was looking everywhere online and couldn't find anything helpful. Hope someone can help. My issue is with the Arctis 9x on the PC. I am able to connect to it via bluetooth but it doesn't work properly? There is no sound nor does the mic work but it does detect it. Somehow when I go under sound settings and disable the mic the sound works but the mic is off. Is there anyway for both the mic and sound to work?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNBrGmAOY10 this video helped alot of people unfortunately it didnt help me, try your luck
Link to the Realtek Folder -) C:\Program Files\Realtek\Audio\HDA
Please comment below if the video helped you so other people can see.
After many requests i've made another video on other possible solutions to this audio glitch and you can find it here ----)https://youtu.be/FIgRIDi4obA
PLEASE NOTE- If you are are not seeing Realtek audio manager...
Can anyone tell me which of the EQ settings I need to reduce to lower the voice chat sound I’m getting through to my 7Ps?
I’ve made a custom setting somewhere between immersion and performance, and game audio sounds great, but my friends voice chat audio peaks and blows out the speakers every time they talk.
okaaaay, for some reason i cant get my arctis pro wireless mic to work and i followed the setup vid. even unplugged my yeti x to make sure it wasnt running interference
Summary of Issue:
I'm having an issue with my audio setup and despite all the research that I've done on forums and here in discord I can't seem to work out what I can do to fix it. I currently have the GoXLR Mini and the Steel Series Arctis Pro Wireless Headphones. Connection wise I have the GoXLR plugged into a USB 3.0 port on the MOBO (see below for exact model) and I have the Steel Series base station plugged in to a USB 2.0 on the MOBO. Then I have a 3.5mm going out of the headphone jack on the front of the GoXLR Mini going into the Line In port on the back of the Steel Series base station. Here's where I get lost. I've watched tutorial after tutorial on how to set this thing up but I'm still getting crappy audio. I have the source set to AUX on the base station and when I have the Playback device set to "TC Helicon System" it doesn't sound "good" at all. Conversely when I switch the base station to PC for the source and I leave the Playback device set to "TC Helicon System" I can't hear anything until I switch the Playback device to "Headphones (Arctis Pro Wireless)". I personally believe that I am missing a setting or something because the magic combination has to be to have the "Source" set to "PC" and the Playback device set to "TC Helicon System" to be able to achieve the best audio quality that these things are capable of. I don't mean to ramble but I know there is a solution because Harris Heller uses almost the exact same setup and I know that he is not reviewing these headphones and singing there praises if he were getting the same audio quality as me lol. Thank you very much for any assistance.
Step's I've taken:
I've gone into sound settings and made sure that the default device and default comm device are selected correctly. I've checked the volume levels and everything is golden, so color me confused.
I have one PC.
MIC:
Sure SM7b
Headphones:
Steel Series Arctis Pro Wireless.
To be honest, i would suggest you to contact also the support meanwhile. I have a pairing problem that hasn't happen on any forums etc.
All in good time.
So,
A week ago I ordered the Arctis 3 Bluetooth at 117 Euros. The reason why is because this model seems to have the feature to connect it to my PC for gaming (WIRED) and to my phone via Bluetooth, as my phone has no 3.5mm jack and uses this adapter (usb-c to 3.5mm), so I figured it'd be way more convenient with the Bluetooth as the adapters don't last long and a phone with a wireless headset connection would be so much more convenient imo.
Now, I just figured out that there are these USB C dongles so I was just thinking:
Is it possible to buy an USB-C wireless dongle, plug it into my USB-C port of my phone and use an Arctis headset with it? I know/think the Arctis 1 wireless is, but I would like to know whether the Arctis 7 (https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-7?color=black) is able to do this, as the connections state that you can only connect the Arctis 7 by a 3.5mm, WIRED.
If so, it would probably the best option to get a refund and go for the Arctis 7, which is slightly more expensive than the arctis 3 but still within my budget. I would then also be able to use my headset wireless to my computer for gaming, as gaming using bluetooth will have too much latency... I know the 9 is able to do this, however, I think this is above my budget for a headset considering my use of one.
My headset should arrive tomorrow (Arctis 3 B)
EDIT: Would the Arctis 7 work with this dongle (https://es.steelseries.com/gaming-accessories/arctis-7x-usb-c-transmitter) plugging it in my phone to use it wireless??? I can't seem to find any page/shop where I can buy the 7X tho... :/
Where did you buy it from?
from a seller on a Turkish shopping website for 35$
Hi Guys, I'm getting an error during installation, anyone can help? I tried running as admin but still doesn't work. at all...
@south creek @lapis crow @neon vale
No one is responding from your support team.
I have had this problem since I picked up my Arctis 9X but I can only get 2 out of 3 of Mic/Discord/Game at any one time, does anybody have a fix for this? Either I can talk and hear on discord but not hear any game audio, or I can hear both but my mic ceases to function, and I've tried making sure I have all the audio codecs, and every setting/configuration possible I can find.
@clever copper I'm having the same issue I have a brand new arctis 5
When playing media on the "game" output my mic does not work. I have to stop the media I'm playing for the mic to start working
Anybody have any ideas?
I put in to support for it. I feel like it's a weird windows 10 thing but haven't gotten to the bottom bottom it yet
I have a question. Made a ticket but i can't see it on steelseries.com they answered through mail so i mailed them back. Did i do it properly? Damn this is hard xd
Hello guys.
Does anyone using MSI and having problem with Steelseries Engine 3, try many way on reddit but still cant get it :(
The steelseries Engine 3 not recognized my MSI keyboard.
Have try many way like un and reinstall the SSE, update EC firmware,...
I’ve asked this before but gonna ask just in case someone’s answers this time:
Is there a way to disable to chatmix dial on the Arctic Pro? It’s kinda annoying having it move slightly and drown out noise from either my game or discord. I’d rather just control that myself via the computer, so I just want to disable it
hi, where can I get the key for dead by daylight
you can't disable the wheel, but you can just put all audio on the Game audio device, then turn the wheel fully towards Game.

Hello i have a problem with my rival 600 scroll wheel where do i get help?

i THINK you need to press the steelseries key and then the m keys to use them
Can u help me ? So I got artics 9 at my birthday and they work great but when I play massive shooters like bfv my sound gets cut off and thats in the training range, I recently tested warzone and the warmup match had no sound as well even the music i play gets no sound. My birthday is april the 26th. I have gg engine installed as well.
im not really sure how to help @verbal vault
i mean
i wont like its kinda crappy
but there isnt much i can say
i got the apex 7 and i have the ability to
hmm
i mean
i wouldnt flame the company tbh
steelseries are pretty decent
i too have had a bad experience rn
my headset costing £300 has broke after 18 month
am i mad? yes
are their customer service doing their best to resolve this, yes
the only thing bugging me is covid has been around over a year and their support isnt able to run at 100% capacity dispite having a year to put measures into place
i mean thats cool and all but, my comment to make is... why didnt you do more research?
Thnx, basically no transmitter has the ability to work plugging it into a phone? Would be nice
you can buy the A7P or similar, since they have a USB-C dongle that plugs into phones. But you won't get dual audio, that's only on the A3BT and A9 headsets.
like how the A3BT can connect to a device with a wire AND connect to BT wirelessly. the other headsets can't do that and can only be connected to one device at a time. if you connect those other headsets with a wire, the headset turns off the wireless
Aaaa yea gotcha
well can't seem to get the A7P anywhere tho, not even amazon or well in my country...
What do u think about this tho? :
Would it work or not? Or is it somehow LIMITED to analog? Because you can certainly do this, but would it work?
I believe the USB port on the headset is only for charging and doesn't transmit audio
well, charging and firmware. but still no audio.
Na I mean the port where u
not the charge port
My bad, the screenshot was from the charging manual, I meant to ask whether it was possible to use a micro usb/8pin to usb
for the A3BT, no, it's analog only.
Yea, damn
Damn I've been thinking now...
I bought the A3BT for 117 right... For 131 I could buy an arctis 9 2nd hand from amazon warehouse at only 130 lmao
Which has both wireless and bluetooth 0_0
hello
I just got a rival 3 wireless and it's not letting me remap any buttons in the gg engine
cpi works fine and I can change the lighting but it seems buggy and just turns off or resets sometimes
Intentional? Isn't it more likely to be bugged?
You can still use third party applications for macros
nvm scroll wheel is broken as well, just returning it
The meta layer is detached from macros
And I have had issues with on the fly macro recording on the 7, so probably not isolated to the 5
Autohotkey?
Macrorecorder, etc. There are a few to choose from
Np
Hope it works out
Completely understandable, gl
I'm a bit confused, if you have SteelSeries GG/Engine installed, why not make the macros there? You'll have to overwrite the functions on the keys, but you can still make these macros.
Sorry if you explained this already, I scrolled through a bit quickly
FYI, the Apex 5 is still a membrane keyboard underneath the switches. The Apex 5 doesn't have full zero key rollover, which is part of the reason why it doesn't support meta layer bindings. For example, you can't press W + Shift + Enter on the Apex 5.
If you do a lot of shortcuts, you should probably look at the Apex 7, since that's a full true mechanical keyboard.
Hi friends 🙂
Quick questions here: I just acquired the arctis pro headset 🙂 ❤️ !
Very happy with it. However,
cannot activate that DTS thing. I see people had troubles with it. Any troubleshooting link you might want to share ?
Does anyone know if you can use the Transceiver from a SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless as an audio control or such? My Arctis Pro Wireless got a loose wire in right side, and can't be fixed nor replaced, so I have the Transceiver still. I'd hate to put it away, beacause it's so easy to just reach for it and control every sound from it.
yo if i got the Arctis 9X Wireless would it be good for mainly using it on pc?
for like warzone and cold war
The 9x reportedly performs poorly on PC, so maybe not
so wot should i get
i was thinking about that cuz noiseybutters uses that headset and shes on pc
okie
How can i get in contact with Steelseries for a missing (not shipped) product? I cant seem to find the right destination on the website.
Black button on the bottom right corner of the support page
It doesnt lead to where i need to go, it all circles back to either not recieving a package. I recieved a package but one of the items that i ordered wasnt included?
Type "create ticket" in the box and it should work
Ah right thanks!
Alternatively clicking the "this wasn't helpful" or "this didn't solve my problem" button at the bottom of whatever support article it brings up should also lead you to the ticket page
hey guys, first time im trying and im hearing more form one side than the other
whee can i adjust this
?
What operating system?
In windows settings, it happens on some headsets for some reason
In mac settings then
Okay, go in Sound Settings, then check if the slider is in the middle, or slight to one of each sides.
Do you have the software installed?
the app yeah
Then check in there if anything looks odd
ok
Does the issue also occur on other devices?
no
its this message
like i always had a bar there
but with steelseries 7p there isn’t
do you know anyone i can contact in this server that could help me?
steelseries support on the the site
how can i contact them, any channel or dm...?
Hi , I have a problem about my Arctis 1 (not wireless) headset. There is no sound from the left side of my headset but the sound is coming from the right. How can i solve this problem?

Does the problem occur on other devices as well?
Having issues with my Aerox 3 - Was'nt connecting at first, wouldn't go into paring mode with the flashing lights either. when switched to 2.4, it looked as if it was off. I eventually noticed that it would work, but only if I pressed firmly on the underbelly switch itself. however as soon as I released it, it would stop working.
Suprisingly enough, it is working now, however now I'm worried it will stop working. I purchased this mouse for home use, and use with my laptop on the go
yeah ı tried on my phone nothing change
Is it with an AUX cable?
yes
Then there could be 1 of 2 issues.
- The AUX wire is broken.
- The driver for the left side is broken and needs a total headset replacement.
If you still have the receipt, I suggest you contact SteelSeries support regarding warranty #official-support
okay thanks a lot
has stopped working - hand wasn't even on it and the rgb turned off.
What about the battery? Is itfully charged, or?
Yes. It will flash white when I firmly press on the mode switch, however it will not connect now
started working, however as soon as i switch it off, it will not work.
is back to where it only works when being squeezed
Hi there, I bought a steelseries arctis 3. The mute button on headset does not actually mute. Is there a solution for this? It could be something with my PC/mother board?
hello
Sounds like a broken button ngl
hi i wanna ask can i use the game dac for my arctis 7?
hi
hi all
just bought 7 series
how can i connect speakers to the dongle?
its connected to the line out but when i switch off the headphones sound doesn't go to the speakers
Hey, i bought the arctis 9x couple months ago and for some reason it is turned off but the mic is still on and working, i cant even mute the mic and it wont charge and turn on, please help.
Is it normal that my arctis 3 bluetooth with the MIC if the volume is at 100 at the sound properties tab I hear it VERY loud and I hear a static sound too?
I have to use it at 50 with 0 boost for it to sound descent without static noises
If you have a look, I don't have an "Audio Enchancements" tab either, although I DO have the latest realtek drivers :/ Already uninstalled and reinstalled that too...
Cuz I think I had this with my webcam mic that I used before I had this headset too, and it just sounded static when I used to put it at 100... It's as if it's a windows 10 issue :/
I can also hear myself breathing through the mic a lot even if its pretty far away, idk if its normal?
Wassap, anyone know if i got a reply from support and if i want to answer them, do i only need to reply on the mail or how does it work?
Cant find my ticket on steelseries.com
Support still dead ?
My arctis 7 headset randomly turns off
yes just reply back to the e-mail.
Having created the GG they dug a huge grave pit for themselves. With releasing updates for GG they buried themselves in it… gg & bb!
Does the arctis 3 support engine/GG
No
So, is it normal to have the sound completely break for every update? I have The Arctis wireless pro, bought 3 months ago. Update 7 and 8 of the engine both broke the something to the point playing a youtube video gave me an error about my sound engine not working at all. I "fix" the issue by uninstalling and reinstalling the engine for the update and it seems to work fine again. Today I got the "We downloaded update 8, click to install" popup which before even clicking the update button the sound was broken again. I am just wondering if anyone else has/had this issue.
no
I have had the issue with updates breaking my arctics 5 requiring restart, replug or driver reinstall. An update in the past totally broke the Apt:X function and i needed to reinstall the engine.
any solution?
same problem here
😦
I have a Rival 3 wireless and the mouse wheel jumps when i scroll
my arctis 7 headphones wont turn off ive tried everything
Can someone tell me how I can set up my Arctic series pro to work on both my Ps5 and pc and to have chat work for both not simultaneously obviously if you have this art up and could charge pics of how you plugged it in would be awesome
My arctis pro 7 is at full power and works until I go away from it for more than 5 seconds, literally just taking it off. What then happens is it turns off and when I go back to turn it on, It dosent turn on for more then 5 minutes unless I charge it for an hour.
My arctics 7 has stopped connecting the headset will connect to the wireless receiver via USB but the steel series gg will say its not connected I tried resyncing them that didnt work and now I'm reinstalling the gg software
yo, i just wanted to come back after finding a fix for the bug i had a couple days ago. When i would clip games the clip would only show pixels at the top and the reset of the screen would be black. What fixed it for me was turning all the settings back to default. Just wanted to come back and say something about it.
Hi all! Can I use any Arctis Pro Booster Pack (Flare or Aurora to Arctis Prime? Arctis Prime also have a removable headset speaker plates and I'd like to know if they will fit.

Hi
Hey, I'm looking into a new headset and never had a SteelSeries before but it's looking to be most likely it. I'm wondering what to get outa the, 5, Pro, Prime, ik it's kinda a weird group but I just don't know
Up to you. I'd choose the prime for the price.
Do you have them tho?
No
Is it normal the arctis 7x wireless dungle get a bit warm when get used on pc ?
Why does my Aerox 3 Wireless USB-C dongle only work when I plug it with the extender? The USB-C dongle is not recognized on my PC, laptop, tablet, anywhere.
My keyboard has broken?
Its hard to explain over text but I have the Apex 5 and it failed a software update and yea
It now shows that its not connected
Ive done the factory reset when its experiencing issues
But what do you do after it starts flashing
Nope
I see
Then I don't think i can be of much help sorry
The steps are so stupid
What the fuck do you do after its flashing
It needs more detail
Support still dead ?
Where do i go for that
I didn’t get my replacement code since Friday nice 👍
not had any correspondance from SS for like 3 days Sadge
I liked my fucking keyboard too
Feels bad
Honestly fuck steelseries, windows said i needed to restart my pc to finish installing the keyboard or some shit. I restart, keyboard still dont work. Now i cant even login because I have a fucking password and a keyboard that dont type.
The keyboard was so good until this point.
I'm done. Their support page is too vauge and doesnt explain anything.
You go to the keyboards, click the one you have. And all there is is the FUCKING EU DOCUMENTATION
that is two pages long
That is no help
