How?
Various audio issues as far as I know
Why is my apex pro so laggy literally press a key to move a bit and it locks and goes for ages
hi all, noob question. my chatmix is not working 😦 when i use the right dial it maximized all the sounds but when i put it down, i cant hear anything 😦 any fix for this? #official-support #archive-user-support
i did restart on the headphones and reinstall the app 😦
Bro no offence but y'all need to fix your app to handle LED's correctly, I take a look at my keyboard while a section that forms the Greek letter Γ is not working correctly and I think that it is broken and that I need a new one but I don't have another 180$ to buy a new one so PLEASE fix this issue
like tf is this???
I am scared to turn off my computer because every time I turn it back on I think that something isn't gonna work or that I broke something bcs I used it wrong or that I have to buy a new one
PLEASE fix this
Hey, i own a rival 300s and after a while using it the cable got a bit stripped
I was wondering if there is any way to replace it
I've tried searching out there but didn't find any video explanation or something, this is my first decent mouse so i'm afraid of messing up somehow
If you have LEDs that are behaving incorrectly try a factory reset. If the problem persists, make a ticket through #official-support and request an RMA if the keyboard is still under warranty which is one year from time of purchase for the US and 2 years for the EU
I’m Confused that the instructions for mobile use of the new usbc headphones still use the 35mm to usb mini. Are they not able to transfer two way audio using exclusively usb c to my computer?
I cannot pick up any audio from discord and it mutes all of my other audio whenever I join a discord vc
I have this problem in win11 when I installed GG software the CPU resource go straights up whenever I start the laptop. I notice all the resource use by all the sound related service
This is before or after I remove the GG software again. Any idea guys?
Btw I'm using ROG strix scar laptop and artic 7 headset
It looks like GG isnt the problem, windows is just being windows
When on windows 10 it just fine
Does anyone know the RGB values for the sensei ten dragon because I'm trying to match the colors to my setup?
how come there's no like. when hand movement = higher . lower sensitivity? you can only raise it
and also how come you can only change the cpi in increments of 100 I cant strike a good balance
Last week the line under that wasn't working and now it is perfectly fine, it is not the keyboard, it is the app
I tried the factory reset, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app but it didn't work and every time I turn off and on the computer the LEDs that don't work properly get better in colour, 2 days ago green would display as full on orange and now it is showing as yellow
The problem Last week:
(ASDFG line not working, 1 4 5 2 0 from numpad AND the arrow keys not displaying the right colours)
and it is perfectly fine now so I dont think it is the keyboard
VS the problem now
(QWERTY line and 3 6 7 8 9 . from numpad not displaying the right colours)
In my arctis pro + gamedac i can only hear from my left side help plz
please help
@ me if u know something
I have the actris pro wireless can i use the transmitter without a pc or laptop?
Fixed it
Anyone knows?
How would you use the transmitter without a host device
New to steelseries here - is there a way to put a % of battery left on wireless mouse somewhere on taskbar / see somewher else?
Nope
bummer - thanks
Right. I can buy laptop for 100€ i have a more expensive one (laptop) but tv and laptop are sepperate now
What is the transmitter range ?
Of the actris pro wireless?
Is a chromebook laptop compatible with the engine?
No
Take it into gimp or photoshop and use the eyedropper tool
I don’t have any of those
Sounds like there's some kind of firmware issue that's causing the RGB values to not be detected correctly. Reach out to #official-support and see what they can do for you. You can probably request an RMA for that and get a replacement board sent to you
Blue part is 6.3, 100, 98.8
Pink is 99.6, 7.1, 96.9
White is 98.8, 100, 98.4
wdym replacement board?
??
a whole new keyboard or something to replace in the keyboard?
RMA stand for Return Merchandise Authorization
If your product is still under its manufacturer warranty (1 year from time of purchase for the US and 2 years for the EU), then you can create a support ticket through #official-support and make an RMA request for the keyboard, if the SteelSeries team determines that the issue is caused by a defect with your keyboard, they can ship you a brand new one at no cost to you.
Well I live in Greece and I have had the keyboard for 1 year and some weeks probably
The warranty is good for 2 years
but when I did open a ticket They told me to send videos of me using the keyboard and some other stuff which I didn't understand
Things I'll be looking for in your video clip:
-GG Preset set to Prism
-Keyboard is plugged in to the main USB port of PC
-Your input actions are shown (ie. fingers pressing buttons)
-30 seconds of footage minimum
-Close-up of the device Serial #
That's very specific
what does he mean when he says main USB port?
my pc has 8 usb ports
4 in the back and 4 in the front
It means the video should show the keyboard connected to a USB port on the PC itself, not going through an external USB dock
well it is connected to the back of my Pc which goes straight to the motherboard
GG preset set to prism?
Then you should show that in the video
Too hard to @ you so I changed your nickname
In the Engine RGB lighting settings for the keyboard, select the preset that says "Prism"
Feel free to change it to something else that's still readable and taggable
good
wdym exactly 😅
ohhh I found it
Under the base effect setting, there should be an option that says prism like the highlighted option in this screenshot
Probably in GG somewhere
yea we found that
It's going to be on the underside of the keyboard. There should be a sticker underneath that has the SteelSeries logo with a barcode. Right under that barcode will be a series of numbers and letters. That's the serial number
this?
Don't show the number, but yes
👌
Just got the arctis 7, im on macOS 10.13.6 and i downloaded the sowftware from https://steelseries.com/engine, yet it is still loading, it has been like this for like 10 minutes, pls help
still loading after 10 extra minutes
uninstalled it, to see if it fixes it
Is this on m1?
I have been buying and using Steelseries products for over 13 Years now even tough the quality has been declining constantly, Driver Software has always been an issue with your Products but at this point it is just not bearable anymore, the Siberia Headset just does not accept any setting i set in the software, many Months ago I noticed that if i press any side-buttons on the Sensei Ten the Mouse just craps its pants and i have to crawl under my desk, unplug and replug to get it to work again, until i accidentally hit that button again, assuming it was faulty Hardware i bought a NEW Sensei ten, and bang same issue, i should have known it was a Software-issue, but Steelseries never likes to support its older products, so i guess my new mouse is bricked forever as you decide you will not al least have 1 working driver for older OS. Over the years i bought 1 Siberia, 3 Siberia v2, 2 Sensei, 2 Sensei RAW, 2 Sensei Ten, i had Software issues with ALL of them... but still used them until i ran into hardware issues. I wish i had kept all the broken peripherals over the years because i want to send you this pile and demand a refund, this is unacceptable.
damn
had arctis pro wireless for a few months, battery has been fine. However i got back from school today and it is completely drained, even having been charging all day. I put it in for an hour or so, says its fully charged. I take it out of the charging station and it lasts maybe 20 minutes, this happens with both batteries, maybe a problem with the base station. Any solutions?
What will I do with the old keyboard if they do end up sending me a new one
will I keep it or will I have to send it back so they can see what was wrong so it doesn't happen again or what?
They'll give you specific instructions for that stuff if they accept the RMA request
how do I set up a macro?
Like I want to press: W and I want it to keep being pressed until I press it again
how do I do that
Thanks
Hello. So uh.. I think my Arctis Pro Wireless Headset. Maybe?
So I have a GoXLR that's plugged into the Arctis Pro receiver with a 3.5mm (Headphone to Line-In)
It's been working fine until yesterday when it stopped working. I didn't drop them or do anything, they just seemed to stop.
I tried plugging the Receiver directly into my PC, my laptop and my phone but no luck.
I've also tried a handful of 3.5mm cables and had no luck.
When I plug them in via USB they work just fine and the battery says it's fully charged and the receiver says the headphones are connected.
I am not sure what's going on... I figured asking here would be worth a shot!
Does anyone have a part of Arctic Pro's who might be able to help spot what I might be doing wrong or maybe confirm that I need to bring this over to Best Buy to get them replaced?
Cheers!
The macro editor is pretty self explanatory, have you tried just messing around?
So I'm on my third TUSQ headset now and the issue is that the sound halves in one bud it's been the right one the first two times so I thought it was just a design flaw maybe but on the third pair it's the opposite and the time before the issue arises is getting considerably smaller and now I'm torn on whether or not it's a factory issue, bad luck, or just the way I handle them which is just plug in plug out and roll up the cable I didn't use them much when they did work I think I got two sessions out of the newest pair
Yes
Will the macro go on for 9 hours straight or will it crash?
Like crash the GG app
Can anyone confirm is I put my phone into Line-In of the Arctis Pro Wireless receiver that it should pick up audio?
It goes until you press the button again, if you have that option set
Is that a reply to my question Saucy?
No
as long as your base station is set to "AUX" input, it should take any audio from the line in and play it in your headset. it does not pass audio to the line out. the line out will only play if the headset is turned off
ok so i have a phone pluged into the Line In and its set to AUX and I dont hear anything. Same when I plug it directly into my PC. Do you think it might be broken?
you don't hear your phone when it's plugged into the PC?
I have an issue with my steel series mouse. The issue is that it is not responding when i left click it is supper delayed does anyone have a fix?
or it just wont register the click
PC > GoXLR > Arctis (LineIn) > AUX > Wireless > No Sound
PC > Arctis (LineIn) > AUX > Wireless > No Sound
Phone > Arctis (LineIn) > AUX > Wireless > No Sound
PC > Arctis (USB) > AUX > Wireless > Sound!
Phone > Arctis (Bluetooth) > Wireless > Sound!
hmm it could be broken, i'd definitely try a factory reset and checking for firmware updates first before calling it in
I see. Ill look into this
I have an issue with my steel series mouse. The issue is that it is not responding when i left click it is supper delayed does anyone have a fix?
ChatMix was set all the way to the right which cuts out the source audio. -_-;
Sorry about that!

I need help anyone. So i just got the Apex pro tkl and i thought u needed to download a software, so i downloaded a software and the software chooses random names, it chose the name “ExtraordinaryRegret7819” I was confused, i ignored it then later when i plugged in my apex pro tkl keyboard it started acting up, it pressed random buttons and i couldnt do anything. I need help what do i do? do i return it?

Can anyone give me some insight?
My PC crashed just now cuase of this
I also got this
Bro this keyboard is scaryy
the LEDs work perfectly fine now
When I put on green colour at the start it was full on orange, I restarted my pc and then it was a little bit more light so I restarted my computer around 3 to 5 times and it went back to normal, the LEDs are now fully functioning
i don't know what is the logic behind this but it worked
guys can help ? i just bought headset steelseries arctics 3 but in software cant detected, my windows already updated
Any advice for getting a longer cable for a prime+?
the cable unfortunately is just faaarrr too short
good day guys. artic 7 no charge. change cable, source of power, reset device. Nothing helps. Indicator is yellow, in GG shows battery low.
It's because you're bad
Unhelpful
Ikr
have you tried just fully draining it then holding the power button for 10 seconds? usually helps with most electronics
Just bought Arctis Pro, i cant hear anything if 7.1 surround isnt turned on
Also youtube gives me some audio render error if im with it off
hi there! this may have already been answered eons ago. i have had the opportunity to get some of the games listed under the gamesense supported list. and the biggest problem is that it the engine does not recognize the games being installed. thus, there is no way to activate them. any quick solution? thanks
Hi
Just wanted to ask does apex legends escape pack give away more keys avalible
It doesnt do that
Please... read the manual
Hello all. I have the Artic Pro Wireless and the base started smoking after a loud pop. The batteries won't charge anymore but it still connects to my PC. Any ideas or if they sell that item separately? Thanks.
That bad
Hello All i have recently purchased Steel series Rival 310 mouse and i want to know how to turn off angle Snapping for the mouse
In engine, turn off angle snapping
do i need to keep the slider on the right for turning it off
Move the slider to the left to turn it off
The farther right it is, the more effect it has
Arctis 3 doesn't have Engine support
Get a USB extender adapter. Not much you can do about the actual cable itself without voiding the warranty
Try a factory reset. If that doesn't solve it then make a ticket through #official-support and see what SteelSeries can do for you
I thought the prime plus had a detachable usbc cable?
Uh yeah you should definitely stop using the base station immediately and contact support for a replacement if you're still within the warranty period (1 year in the US 2 years in the EU)
Well if that's the case then neverminded lol they can just buy a longer cable. It would be third party though since I don't think SteelSeries sells individual cables for that stuff, at least not any longer ones
It better at that price
It's micro USB to A, not USB C but they do sell the cable separately but it's the same length as the stock cable
@hexed crest so if its on the left its turned off right
Yes
@hexed crest Thankyou for the help
eyo, steelseries engine won't do anything more than just show it is loading

Yes I did unplug it. I bought these in April of 2020 so my warranty is up. Headphones are fine so could I buy another base and it'll still work with my headphones?
I got Arctis Pro (USB) and everytime i change my config / select the default one my headphones stop working (i can't hear anything, even if system and headphones volume are both at max and if i listen to something on Spotify it won't play or if i play a video on Youtube it says audio render error and it asks me to reboot my system) and the only way i can hear anything is by uninstalling Steelseries Engine. Can anyone help me please?
How do I sort this out?
does anyone have any idea why gamesense doesn't work with csgo?
my apex pro windows keys arent working
mine did that too restart your computer
still doesnt work
unplug replug?

ur welcome
is there a older software for steelseries engine?
My Arctis 7 wont charge any longer and I clicked the reset button inside the cap multiple times and tried multiple different cables and outlets nothing happened anything else I can do to try to get it charging again
Guys how do I contact Steelseries support about my Arctis 5?
It seems like it mutes itself constantly.
When I try changing the Playback to CHAT, it seems to work, but then that one mutes too so I have to change back to GAME
It's like the playback is hopping between channels
It now changed to this
I got Arctis Pro (USB) and everytime i change my config / select the default one my headphones stop working (i can't hear anything, even if system and headphones volume are both at max and if i listen to something on Spotify it won't play or if i play a video on Youtube it says audio render error and it asks me to reboot my system) and the only way i can hear anything is by uninstalling Steelseries Engine.

Hi, does someone know how to fix the loading issue with steelseries
hey, I have a problem with the steelseries GG, when I start it, a gray rectangle appears and I can wait even 10 minutes and then there will only be a gray rectangle (if I click on the top right corner where it should be x it turns off ) I do not know what to do, help me here, the photo I will add that when I tried to turn it on in a virtual machine, it worked without a problem
Guys, I have a gaming pc with AMD ryzen 3600 and gtx 1660 6gb GPU card. Should I update to Windows 11, or should I wait. I am on windows 10 at the moment of course
Id wait personally i dont think the software is tested enough
Good Morning Everyone, I am in need of help I bought the Arctis 7 Headset for the PS5, I went to charge them last night when the light was blinking red i noticed that the charging light turned off but when i turned the headset on the light was still red! its been like that for a few days its starting to piss me off! Any Help will be helpful
reinstall?
restart pc after installing their software
hi
when i change my ARCTIS 7 setting my headset setting doesn't change
what should i do?
same for me lol
i got arctis pro though
but still, its the same shit
yeah
i think we should talk to support
i already contacted them
what did they say
no response yet
I have re-installed many times rebooted many times and nothing helps
then idk

good day
can someone help me with this ?
just bought them and i cant install the latest software already tried re paring or reinstalling a couple of times. still nothing
restart computer
my Arctis Pro Wireless chatmix stopped working all of a sudden. Now everything is stuck on the game channel. It's important to mention that unlike the Artcis 7 I was never actually able to select from multiple output devices with the Pro Wireless. Despite that, ChatMix worked exactly as expected until a few days ago. I've tried plugging it in to different USB ports and other various troubleshooting, but nothing works. Really I'm just trying to figure out how the SteelSeries Engine decides which devices go to which audio channel. I thought maybe it was game detection but that didn't seem to help.
my arctis pro wireless will now not give any audio on either setting. ive reinstalled everything but nothing changes. I wish I'd never bought this dog shit brand, every fucker and his dog seems to have problem with these. £300 on a load of wank, cheers steel series GG
I will, doubt I'll get any actual support though, just the usual drivel from these retarded companies. should've just stayed with my hyper x 2s, only reason I made the change was because they weren't wireless.
okay
I've already reached out support, I'm not quite as pessimistic as Cyril, but I am assuming I will have to go back and forth with them over email two or three times before they actually understand the nature of my issue, despite explaining it in detail in the ticket.
As to whether or not they can help me, that feels like a coin toss.
pisses me off, got the Aerox 3 mouse and that's been poor too
right now my keyboard, mouse, and headset are all steelseries and im quite happy with them, but the firmware and product support has always been disappointing
and it's only gotten worse as they update the steelseries engine repeatedly without updating any of their support articles or even the information that their CSR's have
mate I've had a pair of Bluetooth headphones off amazon for £40 and the sound quality was better, these are, for £300, poor. the surround sound is none existent if you have to volume limiter on, which you have to cos otherwise you get so much fucking static. i can't tell where anything is coming from is CS anymore, it's bollocks
And before this headset decided to kill itself, when I was using the Game setting, video and audio wouldn't load for some retarded reason so I had to Switch to Chat but then the fucking audio keeps fading out when the volume isn't loud in whatever im watching/plauing
Just got myself an apex pro was wondering if anyone knows how to delete some of the gifs i made in imagesync
I haven't had issues with echolocation or audio quality. I play hunt, siege, tarkov. All games where sound direction is incredibly important. I keep surround sound enabled in game mode. I don't use the volume limiter. Have you tried adjusting the mic sidetone? The only static I ever hear is feedback from my mic sidetone, usually from my computer fans. If I mute the microphone I hear complete silence until the audio is cranked very near maximum -- even then the level of static is minimal.
Reboot
Any able to help me out with my arctis 5
Using on xbox
Tried both the jack and audio dial not getting sound from either
When I use the audio dial all the lights come and it generally seems to work just no audio
Hi,
I bought a Steelseries Arctis Wireless Pro one year ago, (so I should still have warranty)
Sadly I have a problem with the left hinge which doesn't hold my ear cup anymore, sound still works but the earcup moves cuz its not fixed anymore.
Can Steelseries provide me with a replacement or a solution to this problem ?
Do I need to open a ticket even if Steelseries cant do anything about it ?
If I need to find a shop that can repair it, how much would it cost ?
Thanks for the answers.
- To get an RMA (replacement), you need a ticket. Warranty may or may not cover your issue.
- If you want to know if SS support will give you an RMA, you will need a ticket first
- There aren't any shops I know of that repair SteelSeries headsets, replacement or DIY fix are only options
revert to a previous version. I had the endless loading problem on my GF's Mac, it's a known issue and only way to fix that I found is to go back to older version
anyone know how to delete some of the gifs i made in imagesync?
delete from where
in gg i use imagesync to make gifs to put on the keyboard
all the ones i make build up in a list without the option to delete them
and idk where theyre stored
i can share screen and show you
ok ty
So I just restarted my xbox and the jack gives me a little audio not much but none of the rgb lights are on and the audio dial still doesn't give out sound
try it on your phone or PC
Don't got a pc and none of the ports will work in my phone
you should be able to use a USB A to C adapter (or OTG if it still uses that) on your phone
Dont have any adaptors
I'm getting some sound now just not loads and the audio dial still doesn't output sound
It sounds more like an XBox problem than with your arctis 5s
you can try a different port as well
rip
Yeah idk what to do
Like my old headset is much louder but the USB for that is about broke so I brought this
When I use the jack I get some sound no lights not even on the mic when I use the audio mixer I get no sounds and all lights
ok just looked, 5 isn't compatible with XBox, which is why the dial doesn't give you any sound.
the 3.5mm won't give you light because it passes straight through to the drivers
to get louder sound out of the 3.5mm jack you need to turn up system sound on the XBox and use the dial on the back of the headset, the chatmix dial won't do anything
how much of a sound quality difference is the arctis 1 to the arctis pro?
i bought an arctis pro wired with gamedac but both it and the warranty replacement has a crack on the right side. so i'm hoping the arctis 1 might not sound much different when paired with gamedac.
ok, I don't see the resource file anywhere for ImageSync, so I don't think there's a way to delete your gifs after you save them
the Pro has much better drivers so there will be a difference esp. with high-res audio enabled. how much of a difference is really based on opinion and how sensitive your ears are, to me it's noticeable but not a whole ton, to people who are used to studio grade sound it's a world apart.
ill try pming one of the dvs
if they're still basically new a return should be easy enough and then you can get one of the actually compatible ones. As a tip, the XBox specific ones have an X at the end of the name
Ahh smart
So im assuming the mic will work all perfectly too now?
I also got a laptop so I'll probably just keep these anyway.
if it's specifically for the XBox, yes, it should.
The arctis 5 mic I mean which isn't
through the jack on the 5s IDK
if you've got an XBox with separate jacks then you'll need a splitter, otherwise it should work ok
My previous headset was just a bluetooth usb
if you wanted an equivalent for that the 7s or the 9s are the way to go
That's like double the price of this dam I dint have that kinda money rn
yeh they ain't cheap
you can test the 5s with the jack on your laptop, if they work like that it should be fine on the xbox
Yeah I'll have to go on my laptop tomorrow
same as any other generic wired headset
I'm just gonna play a bit more cod then head bed
Thanks for the help though bud
sure thing, have a good one and GLHF in COD
Good luck happy Friday?
good luck have fun. it's a steelseries thing
Thanks for the answer
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me out. For context, my parts are the following: R5 5600X, 32GB Corsair RAM, Gigabyte B550 Vision D-P, Gigabyte RTX3070, and a few SSDs/1 HDD.
My PC's been randomly crashing the past few days while gaming, and I get a black screen followed by a restart (audio glitches occur too, sometimes it says crash was cause of audiodg.exe and dwm.exe). At first it only happened while I streamed/played Apex, so I reinstalled Windows to potentially remove any errors with faulty drivers and applications. Over the past few days, Rust has been randomly crashing (usually starts with a bit of HARD lag/audio glitching, then a black screen, then a crash and restart).
Just now, I got a "b2" code on my motherboard which apparently suggests a bad GPU + I couldn't power off my PC for some reason? The power button isn't broken (it powers the PC on just fine), and it was just in this situation where holding the power button after the crash wouldn't shut off my PC; I had to manually flick the PSU switch.
If need be, I'm able to RMA most of my parts since I've kept the receipts/SN + I've only recently bought the parts. Sorry for the long message, but I'd appreciate if anyone could help me out!
I also got this error code once and it said had Steelseries in it
from the looks of it you have a problem that has something to do with the sound drivers, SteelSeries uses DTS audio for some things which is the file path listed there.
did you do a full wipe and reinstall or just the "repair install" that keeps your programs?
If you kept your programs it's very possible some of the drivers weren't wiped or reset
I'm guessing you probably don't have a spare GPU lying around?
and no integrated graphics on Ryzen if I remember right
yeh
I'd test with a different GPU and if that solves it get an RMA. IDK about stock, my dad did an RMA on a 1660Ti this summer and got lucky because they sent him a 2070 as a replacement due to short stock on the 16 series.
OH jeez that's crazy
ya maybe i'llt ry that
that was thru MSI tho
i was wondering if it could've been the new NVIDIA drivers
it's possible, that's what did it for my dad too
anyone find a solution to the doubleclicking issue in steelseries mice?
oh jeez that's an old one, I found solutions on Reddit for that
none of those worked
i didn't have it before but the moment i installed steelseries engine
it started
uninstalling/ccleaner didn't work
RMA and replace then, or see if they can give you a firmware update for the mouse
hm, don't think they get rma for 2yo mice but I'll try the second
rival 100
Help with thiss ?
try restarting
if that doesn't work uninstall steelseries engine w. ccleaner and reinstall
Done . Still didn't resolve it
fuck i crashed again :/
i can send a video if that makes it easier to decipher what's happening
Okay, I've realized I ONLY crash on EAC games
rust/apex
is it a bios thing maybe?
I have artic pro wireless and the volume keeps going to zero for no reason whenever I play constant sound like a game or a YouTube video. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Now I am not saying it is steel series fault but i think that this happend during transport bcs I am taking very good care of the things i own
Yes
its cheap so i bough
And I just noticed this because today i used the feature where the headphones go like this
but i set color shift on 2 secs, so my eyes got damanged
sorry
im on my new apex pro
so its hard to type when i was on laptop
Beluga can you buy me an apex pro for fre
Is it steel series
If not i no want
Is there anyway I can replace this part bcs I don't really have the money to buy a new pair
I do actually but I have been saving up to buy a new bike
I am going to buy a 2021 model :>
Someone know how long does it take steelseries to send items?
For me it was 10 days
Oh ok
Do u know how long after i made the order the ship from warehouse
Depends on where you live
Also can I get some help with the headphones?
Ok
when i switch on game chat on arctis only the left side operate but in chat both operate
arctis 7 btw
also still didnt resolve this today
my artics 5 mic isnt working help
Just having an issue with the Arctis Pro Wireless. It seems to be connected to my pc through the transmitter but no sound output. I tried Bluetooth to my phone and it worked though. So not sure if there’s something I’m missing
its also not showing up on the Steelseries GG software
Hello, just bought an Arctis 3 and having some troubles : sound il very low, even if i put all at 100%. Advices? May Sonar help? If yes, how can I get it? I'vo got no access via GG
Found it, just a windows level on low, but still asking for Sonar 🙂
Arctis 3 doesnt use GG
im using the arctis 7x and the chat mixer on the right side of the headphones isnt working and the headphones are new and looked after well, any help?
afternoon, quick question I hope. I have recorded and assigned a macro to b6. It works fine with the system that engine is on, but I need this to work on a pc wthout engine/GG installed. Am I missing something about saving the macro/config to onboard memory?
I run linux on my main PC, which is why I need something with onboard memory and that doesn't require engine/GG running.
and i have it to where power is being sent to the usb ports
Hi, I recently purchased an arctis 7 wireless headset (white) and I am having trouble with my windows settings. Is anyone available to help? The "configure" button is grayed out.
Called it btw.
SteelSeries support really sucks.
does your chatmix work with GG/Engine uninstalled and your computer restarted? Engine doesn't actually handle chatmix at all, it's just two audio devices on your computer, and you just tell Windows what apps should go to what output
So i've had my arctis 9x for a while now and its been really good. but it starts to randomly turn off while connected to my pc with bluetooth. its really annoying. i could be in a call with my friends or listening to music and it would just turn off! even if its at full charge. its really annoying. help would be appreciated.
If I use my SteelSeries Arctis 5 with USB on my iPad, how much battery would it take?
my rgb is not chaining when i save the profile
does arctis 5?
if not how can i get the old engine back? i really need to change my settings
nvm solved it
reinstall did the magic
Yes
so how do i make it work?
what happend?
So you have Apex 3, is that right?
yes.
Apex 3 does not support per-key LED lighting, only "Zones", so you can't put a gif on it like you can with an Apex 7 or Pro
oh.
yeah i have apex 3 and i does not work
you can still have cool color effects but the gifs won't work
it*
srry to disappoint you
u can put gifs on it... it just... doesnt look good
does the arctis pro mic mute when its tucked in?
nope, has a button on the back to mute
try for yourself
how bad is the white noise issue ive been hearing about? trying to decide between the arctis pro wireless and the astros a 50s
Ehh I wouldn't know, I've got the wired ones. Seems like wireless is hit or miss, some people it's just perfect others have issues
gotcha
how do u charge an artics 7
new ones have a type c port, old ones it had a micro USB. you just plug it in
headset audio completely stopped working out of the blue, i plugged the headset onto different devices and there is still no audio. has anyone had this problem?
yes i did its charging but i need to know what usb charge it
cause i plug all of it
and i cant see anything on the steelseries gg
the battery
the micro USB/type C is the only port it will charge from
ok thanks]
haven't had it myself, what headset model?
arctis 3
might need to do a factory reset
under one of the ear cushions there is a small hole with a button, you press it with a pin for 3 seconds
lol this is why i moved to steelseries before i used a logitech mouse and keybaord and my g hub keeps looping i cant even change my g pro wireless dpi
software is always a bit jenk, partly because windows (nuff said) and partly because I guess companies just don't care that much once they got you to buy the thing.
@chrome jewel the g pro wireless is the bets mouse out there spend 140 dollars and cant change the dpi because of a stupid glitch
Does anyone have any suggestions for an Arctis 9 wireless that the engine won't recognize? I'm trying to update the firmware and it doesn't see it.. I've reinstalled the GG software (twice), removed all the devices in device manager (twice), about 15 reboots, nothing seems to help
i wish steelseries can beat this mouse
@quaint wharf maybe its fake
if it does not recognize either its fake or u need to do something
GG is a hot mess rn, you can try a previous version and see if that works
I bought it direct, I'm pretty sure it's the genuine article
"best" is fairly subjective, my favorite so far is the Rival 650
@chrome jewel what is the best steelseries mouse
i just buy headset and keyabord because there the best
logitech has good mouse
cant find the hole
butthe software is so shit
snicker
and what i dont like about steelseries outside country only 1 year warranty
look on both sides, it's pretty small
Isn't it on the non-mic side?
ill send a pic on dm's of the headset
ok
depends on what you need from it
for me it's the 650
I have an Arctis 1 Wireless that doesn't pick up my Voice well, everyone in discord complains that they can never hear me.
I've turned myself up in discord and on GG does anyone know if i need to change a setting somewhere?
Alright they've emailed me back twice and both times it's completely blatant that they did not read my email.
I'm never going to recommend steelseries again. Their support team is just horrible.
I agree that the support isn't always the greatest, and sometimes you get a bad apple, but to be fair they were short staffed the entire pandemic and customer support roles aren't exactly high-competition like, say, engineering (no offense to those working as customer support). It is frustrating when they don't read your email, or don't seem to, but sometimes I wonder if they have a set list of responses that are "approved" and outside of that they're not allowed to say or recommend anything due to liability issues. Because we're too sue-happy here in the US.
My experiences with them have generally been OK, I've reached out a couple times over the years and they were polite and responsive, but it did feel like they were pretty limited in what they could do, their options kind of seem to be to 1. restate the existing documentation, 2. suggest the common "safe" troubleshooting methods (reinstall, reset, etc), and 3. authorize an RMA where applicable. On a limited basis they may supply extra information or at least confirm certain less-clear details, but they don't seem to be equipped to do much outside of that
If they had a better system for handling support, ie a proper chat in addition to email-based communications, or even live phone support, I feel like the support process would feel much smoother to the consumer, but I also know that SS is a fairly small company so doing these things isn't as easy for them.
SteelSeries is also a fraction of the size of Corsair, Razer, Logitech, etc. so hiring the manpower needed to support a live chat infrastructure and actual support besides just the common troubleshooting issues that are common with their products is out of the question for them. It's just the way it is. Tbh though I tend to gravitate towards smaller companies anyways because they tend to have quality that's at least on par with the bigger companies and a team of people that actually care about the user experience and the customers who buy their products. The pandemic has really stretched SteelSeries' already limited support staff to their absolute limits. 2 years ago it would have been possible for an agent to spend extra time helping someone out with a specific issue, but nowadays with the support staff working exclusively from home still due to COVID restrictions that just isn't possible with each agent having to deal with 500-1000 tickets per day. Combine that with shipping and infrastructure issues worldwide and it makes for a bad experience all around
Hey i dont know if anyone will have the answer for this
but i turned on my Rival 650 and the RGB is going nuts
flickering like mad and i can't stop it
i've tried turning it off and on, resetting all my settings, the GG client
everything
Try resetting the mouse itself. Sounds like the onboard memory might have gotten bugged somehow. First, plug the USB charging cable into your PC, but don't plug the micro-b side into the mouse, leave that unplugged
Hold down the left, right, and CPI (the button directly under the mouse wheel) buttons together
Plug your mouse back in. Continue holding buttons for 5 seconds until the LEDs on the mouse blink.
how will i know if im doing it correctly?
whenever i do the first step it just does the recalibration flash then goes back to what it was doing
There be a different way to reset a wireless mouse, not really sure. It should probably say in your manual if you have it
Is there anyone how can help with this please????
can I somehow get a replacement for that part of the headphones or can steelseries send me new ones bcs I searched on google and found some people who did get new headphones with RMA
James Porter:This happened to my SS Arctis 7's, exactly the same fault. I RMA'd them and got a replacement. Unfortunately, the 2 year warranty isn't extended with the replacement (UK) and I'm now far outside the warranty period. I'm here looking for ways to fix it.
From Youtube
eviljetiyt28: My headset has done this 2 times.. now and I'm sick of it.. once I got my second one (sent to me by ss for warranty) I have been super delicate with it.. and still after 5 or 6 months has started to have the bolt holding it to the frame come off just like yours.. but I noticed a Crack in the plastic starting to form as well.. ON BOTH SIDES... so I lm guessing if there was a way to fix these the other side would soon be in the same place.. this brand is supposed to be top notch and fit for the best gaming experience but all I'm feeling is the dangled earpiece on my ear that can't be fixed. The only thing that feels remotely non cheap is the piece of stainless steel that you sit on your head.. :/ sucks to say.. but I might be moving brands.
From Youtube as well
Heyyy Hello guys.. I bought Steel Series Arctis 1 4 days ago and my microphone is not working anymore does anyone know the solution or what I suppose to do?? Hope u guys can help me ❤️
Is it enabled? Are there any errors in device manager when you check the device
Properties
Are the drivers up to date?
Is it just muted in the headset?
It's the allow air to access my microphone turned on?
Because it seems to be a common issue with that headset
Have you tried policing it in to a different port as well?
when i click the clip buttom
i hear the sounds
but it doesnt clip
help me pls
when i click the clip button
it does nothing
it dont clip it
iplayed fortnite just now
and it tried clip
but it doesnt do anyhting
Did you really have to ask in half the channels
Hey i have a problem. Im not sure if it is my apex pro keyboard or something wrong with the usb port. My apex pro keyboard starts to blink and turn on and off. My other keyboards work in the same usb port but again im not sure what the problem is. Pls help.
I ordered yesterday a Arctis 7 headset for my birthday (today). It arrived, but I have a lot of trouble getting this thing working properly. I did install the SteelSeries GG program and the drivers for the headset trough that program. Yet still it refuses to let me use the mic and it keeps telling me to reconnect the headset, while I did that several times over even by pulling the wires out for 20 seconds. Why can't this thing be easier? Who can help me out with this? I wanted to play games today, not tinker with a headset that keeps refusing service.
Hey guys! I have a question regarding the "Aerox 3 Wireless (2022) Onyx". When the mouse is discharged, can we use it and play while charging with the cable please? Thanks 😄
The support team really is terrible. Everyone I get through to is such a low level they straight up don't even know a damn thing about any steel series product.
Hello guys, my cs go gamesense won't work on my apex pro and artict 5. The support can't find a solution. Someone has the same problem ? I've tried everything
If it's in warranty you can get a replacement. If not you're probably out of luck, but you can look on eBay for used ones that you can gut for parts if you really want to
Sonar is a bit of software that runs on your computer, GameDAC is a physical standalone product that operates even without the software from the computer, and additionally can be used on console
I get that sometimes, I think it's Engine/GG being glitchy. I unplug and let rest, then plug into a different port, or if a different port isn't available, I restart GG and that seems to help. Sometimes I just don't start GG at all and I've had no problems using it that way either
yes, you should be able to use it while charging. Only mouse I know of that can't is Apple's bloody magic mouse (hate that thing)
Is there a way to optimize my steel series arctis pro wired for games like Call of Duty?
Thank you @chrome jewel 😄
sure thing
on PC you can mess with the equalizer in GG/Engine to fit your needs, otherwise it's good as-is.
I can hardly hear footsteps so I was hoping to increase the bass a bit
Make sure that the mic isn't muted (button on back of headset)
yeh there's a setting for that in the equalizer, called Bass Boost
you can boost the audio in the game tho
Not in vanguard
For some reason it wont let me select vanguard as one of the games
you don't need to
@chrome jewel When I click this, it doesnt go anywhere
it refuses regardless on how I put it
you'll need to install the software then
hmm. try uninstall/reinstall GG
What software do I need to install? when I click that link it doesnt go anywhere?
ill do that after dinner
hmm. Dunno, the link should do it
pizza ist going to get any warmer
ok enjoy
ty
This is what I get on mine
if you go back a page to the list of devices does it say there's an update for the headset?
Is this meant for me?
yeh
not for GG, the headset itself
if there's an update there will be a blue bar here that you click on
Cool, got it. Is there an equalizer preset you would recommend for COD games?
eh, I use the one in my pic for everything, bit of a low pass to increase bass, then boosted mid-highs
You can try out the presets as well, Bass Boost isn't too bad
Why does yours have more dials?
I have the GameDAC so it's not exactly the same
Ah
Are you talking about the bass enhancement?
Thats not one of my options
hmm. Then yeah, you can try the bass enhancement
I prefer to use the EQ but I guess it's about the same
Is there a way to add a profile for music apps like spotify?
you can duplicate your configuration, make the changes you want, and then switch configs while listening to music
No way for it to switch automatically?
Darn, I’m guessing not iTunes either
nope, that's what I use and no dice
Darn
Good Evening. Anyone using the Arctis Wireless Pro? I am curious if i can manage to input over Optical and output over Line Out with the Box. (To connect a new TV to an old hifi-system)
Hello, i just wanted to ask if everything is ok?
region locked???
why would the plates be region locked but the mousepad not, which i have in my cart
Probably out of stock or the warehouse in your locale hasn't received theirs yet
Has anyone had an email saying their order is arriving today but it doesn't arrive?
That's more of a shipping company issue than a SteelSeries issue
Once it leaves the warehouse (IE when the shipping label is created) it's entirely out of SteelSeries' hands when it will arrive
Someone finally, Thank you
sure thing
how long is the neo noir going to be available?
Until it's sold out
Is the GG software the only thing I need when I get my headset?
yes, it contains the steelseries engine which provides the driver and profile/color setup
Thank you.
Anyone have a arctis pro wireless that doesn't have any white noise?
can someone help me
my aerox 3 wont change color
im using the gg software
and on my headset
you tried closing/reopening GG?
you can also try restarting your computer, and failing that reinstall GG fresh
gg has a lot of bugs, that's usually the issue
You have to select a zone and click on the little colored box
in the Illumination/Lighting section
sure thing
hi
Hi
Why is my arctis prime mic SO quiet? and it aint even showing up on the engine this is damn messed up. I might not buy steel series headsets anymore tbh
Has anyone noticed that some of the steelseries pro wireless headsets have more white noise than others?
or are they all just the same
yes
then why the mic so quiet still?
they sound so grainy
Is there a way to make the Arctis Pro wireless work with the series x?
Does the steel series acrtis pro wireless have built-in attenuation for chat sound?
Literally it always decreases my discord sound and then randomly returns the volume back
i have discord attentuation turned off, any sound settings attentuation turned off etc
I tried searching online but no one really has a set solution

Hello, i have a problem with my arctis 9, a friend made it fall from a desk while it was charging and it now keeps blinking white at a fast pace, i can't interact with it in any way (can't turn it off, can't toggle the bluetooth on or off, and even the mute button on the right side doesn't trigger the led on the mic so i don't know what to do
Hey, I have a question, is this normal to have to confirm my command with a 5 number code
guys i have an steelseries arctis 3 nonbluetooth headset, i dont have a pc yet. but i cant use the mic on it, it isnt working on discord or anything, how can i fix this? it comes with a aux cable which coes into my computer, the audio is fine but no mic.
Is is plugged into a out and in port, or just an out port?
Big sad that a day into use my DAC has a pretty sizeable scratch on it
i am on computer so 1 aux port,
Please stop posting this. It breaks the self promo rule and isn't relevant to the discussion in the channel
where can I share videos ?
Not here
any # you know ?
When I said not here, I meant not in this discord
oh ok
#moments-clips and #archive-rate-my-clip is fine for game clips, not unboxings
ok
How many aux ports are there?
on the computer 1, on the headset there is one but there is a extension for 2
Make a #official-support ticket
Equalizer software
the left one connects to the headset, the right is the extension
On the mother board IO there is only 1? Or is this a laptop?
laptop
Ah
the mic isnt working, idk why, i just opened it today, the audio is fine just mic isnt pcking anything up
Does the aux connector go in all the way?
yes
Was it working before?
the mic hasnt worked, no
Is the headset muted?
What is the icon next to aux port?
on my laptop?
Yes
a headset with a mic
Then that should work
Thx
Hello, i just get 60 day rma code for rival 600 but its out of stock. Does anyone have idea what is eta time for re-stock? I'm worried that it won't be re-stocked in 60 days and I will lose code. Would be grateful for help.
You can get it refreshed
Hey how long in y'all's experience does it take from time of order, to when they actually ship your headphones? e.g. How long do items sit in "preparing for shipment" phase?

should be a few days at most

I've had that issue with a few different mice. Try taking off the shield and cleaning the button.
@last steppe
i would check if any gunk is in the way
i wil thx for the advise
A couple of days, issue is that I need the headset for work so I'm getting anxious
@shell arch
In most cases, your order will ship out in 1-3 days.
oop
is what it says on thier website
@sweet dragon
so if it doesnt ship by 3 days
Ahh, I didn't see that. I'm dumb
it also says @sweet dragon
We are experiencing a high volume of requests and you may experience slight delays in receiving your product. We love gaming and want to get you your product as soon as we can!
so, a delay would be expected
On one hand I'm glad to be buying from a company with such a high demand, but on the other I am sad because my boss keeps calling out me on my poopy mic haha

@tender rapids did u get it sorted yet:>
Hi everyone, i need help with my Arctis 9, it has some issues,
1- It won’t stay on. When i power it on, it stays on for 2-3 seconds and powers off itself even tho it has charge (a week old, always wall charged (well only 2-3 times), indicator lights green, it shows full battery at gg app on pc)
When i plug it in to wall charger, it works..
When i unplug it, it stays working. But when i shut it down, it won’t work. Need to plug it in to charger and start it and unplug..
(At first everything was fine. Do the latest updates both the important and the other when i got the headset. Works fine with my ps5 console via dongle and iphone x via bluetooth)
Tried reset button.
2- Bluetooth won’t connect to any device. Tried on two iphones, pc, ipad.
Tried pressing 6 seconds, longer than 6 seconds, blue light flashing fastly but still no device seen on the list.
Tried reset button.
3- Everything was working correctly at first. Update done. Using on ps5 with dongle and iphone with bluetooth.
A help would very much appreciated. Thanks
If you've already done a factory reset it sounds like something with the firmware itself got screwed up somehow. Theoretically a factory reset should fix an issue like that though. Since it's only a week old you should make a ticket through #official-support and see what they could do and/or request an RMA to get a replacement headset
Question does the Artics 7 work with an Xbox.
i think
yeah
Well “probably” it all started after i use it on pc with bluetooth. I unpair with iphone and use on pc and some time later when i want to use it with iphone again, it wont connect so i do forgot device on iphone to pair it again, but after that not a single device seen the headset.
After that it started to shut down immediately after turning it on.
I bought it from a worldwide company in my country so i can return the item and order new one but i just want to know if its fixable so that i dont deal with sending it back and receive another one etc..
Hey looking for some help here, my SteelSeries artic 5 about 4 months old and ONLY in FPS games I can't hear behind me, like at all. Surround sound is on and i can't seem to get it to work.
Is steel series an authorized seller for their products😂 ?
The lighting effects on my Rival 3 Wireless have stopped working. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling GG, but they didn't come back. Tried with new batteries but that didn't work either. The LED itself is still working, it shows itself connecting to my pc and entering Bluetooth mode, but the lighting effects using the USB adapter aren't working. Bought it a few months ago, please @ me if you have a suggestion to fix this.
Good Evening guys, may I ask if how can I manually reset my apex 350 keyboard because there are some keys which is binded to other command. Please help me on this issue. 😦
Hi, when i expect my order to ship...made on the 13th already...
Is it possible to turn off reactive lighting when i go into a game on my apex 5?
hi does anyone know if Sonar overlaps with the steelseries engine?
When I enabled system monitor and it goes to the temp info it says CPU: Unknown, is that normal?
and on the CPU info it says on the bottom NaN Ghz
If you're using amd yes
Hello everyone, I own apex 3 keyboard and rival mouse. How can I syncronized the RGB between the two? I am using GG et did the same effects but it's not perfectly syncronized. Is that possible ? any option in the GG tool? Thank you for helping!!
You could try using prism sync
Or nice changing the timings
Btw prism sync is on the app section
Should be
Check it any apps r controlling the device
Then make sure to untick the box in the steelseries rgb section
Hi
Welll
On their website
It says they r experiencing a lot of orders so there are delays
Not much you can do but wait tbh
However you may want to check that the order went through
thanks
hi I have rival 3 wireless and today while playing games, suddenly the mouse lights went out and stopped working. When I look at the Steelseries GG application, it gives a reconnect mouse warning. Can you help me, how can I fix it?
Hello Support channel, i have a artic pro wireless and its not detected on the engine and ive connected it via AUX and ive got a white noise/fuzzy sond/ static sound and ive tryed changeing cabels and it doesnt help out.
Engine won't detect it if you're using it via 3.5mm. It needs to be connected through USB to be detected in engine. For the APW that means it has to be in wireless mode and paired with the base station which should be connected through USB to the PC
it still doesnt show when i have it connected via usb
and what about the white noise or static as some might call it
Can i get some actual help?
Static is a common issue on pro wireless, just how the wireless is. As far as not being recognized make sure the base station is on PC mode and not PS4/PS5, try different USB port, close/open GG, restart computer with it plugged in, and if none of that helps, uninstall/reinstall GG. If you're not happy with it and they're new contact the real support team ( #official-support ) and they might be able to provide a solution or give you a return/RMA
Echo the problem is with the aux connection there comes a static sound when using AUX, its because i have my headset wired to my Goxlr witch is an audio controll pannel and it doesnt work if i use usb.
Turn down headset volume, increase pc volume
flare if i turn it down its super low and i can barely hear anything
HI, I was wondering if amazon will match the black friday sales for the products from the main website
maybe but that's up to Amazon really
they do have a price match feature hidden somewhere
okay so i have an issue
so everytime reset or shut off my pc, my apex pro changes its color to a red or has no rgb at all and i have to go back into the setting
its on rainbow and now its on this current color
what does this mean?
I just got my arctic pros and I set them up on my pc but the audio barelyplays like it cuts out for 15 seconds and is super scratchy and noisy
wave size and spacing on colorwave effect
thanks!
my terraria keeps being weird every time i start it my mouse pad changes colour scheme
turn off the gamesense integration in engine
Which mousepad do people with the Rival 710 use? It doesn't feel great on the QcK Gaming Surface compared to my other SteelSeries mice
is it the weight or smth? might be time to replace the skates
When are the devs gonna fix the VPN / Engine issue?
I see that the arctis pro is available in white when also purchasing the gamedac
is it not possible to just purchase the white arctis pro headset only?
i really want to purchase this without having to also buy the gamedac
Should be possible to buy on it's own, but might be out of stock in your region
Hello guys, i have a question,
I recently bought an arctis 9 wireless and it is constantly beeping when my computer has no sound or when sound is muted,
I downloaded the steelseries engine, and apparently the headphone disconnects randomly when he do not make sound, how can i prevent this ?
Thank you
i need some help
my arctis 5 is breaking i think
it works
but when i join a call
i cant hear anyone
and my mic stops workin
then when i leave the call
it still doesnt work
and when i try the audio test, chat works but not game
actually even after restart, game doesnt work at all
i uninstalled steelseries gg and it works now
I send it back and got the new one.
But i don’t want to install that gg app ever.
Can i connect my Arctis 9 to pc via bluetooth without installing gg app?
And should i first disconnect arctis from iphone and connect to pc and vise versa when i want to use it with iphone again?
Hey, you should be able to connect the mouse without bluetooth, however if you wanna download the steelseries engine here is the link: https://steelseries.com/engine
Download the SteelSeries Engine 3 software for the best gaming experience on Windows and Mac.
Hi, i am talking about Arctis 9 Headset
And i ask can i connect it “with bluetooth” only.
Without connecting the dongle or using usb cable and without engine and/or gg app, i don’t know which is which
Yes
Just use bluetooth settings to connect it
The audio will kinds suck tho bc bluetooth
I won yesterday giveaway (the care package), I sent every information correctly the thing is that I forgot to put my postal code in the address topic, do you guys know if there is anyone that I should send a message to? (I sent the message through private message on twitch too and also opened a ticket through the support)
Rma the headset
How does one get #official-support to submit a ticket. I cannot find any way to do this in any support page on the website.
Try sending two messages on the chat box then it will open the submit ticket thing
Sorry if this is the wrong place, but is it possible to rebind the GameDAC knob and/or buttons? I just wanna use it as an independent/global volume knob, or mute.
I have Arctis 1 and i have big problem, i can hear only one speaker
Hello, around 6 - 7 months ago I bought the arctis pro wireless. The shell seemed to have a crack and just came off. Its not broken, it still functions, but the shell does not hold in place for you to wear it.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I DIY fixed it with screws and made sure that it did not hit any wires inside. It eventually just loosened itself and the hole widened. Because it failed, I used epoxy but that also just came off.
Do you guys think I can just replace the shell with a brand new one? or is there another solution to this?
Hello, I have an Arctis 7 wireless and the left speaker has a very quiet beep sound is there a way to fix it or does my product have an Error
Second thing is minor, my friends say the qualitiy of my mic is very good, but I sound like im under water. we all fine with that but is this also normal?
If I connect with cable the beep sound goes away

Hey ! i just got an artic 7P
I want to do some seetin on it, but i only got windows 7 on my PC, is there an software that is available on windows 7 ? thanks !
it just keeps deleting itself now idk why
What is deleting itself
the software for the mouse pad
Engine/gg is uninstalling itself?
yeah i think so
Because you turned off gamesense integration for terraria?
Seems unlikely
Make a #official-support ticket
Are you sure it's uninstalling
if i close it it completely disappears and i check all my files and its not anywhere there
That doesn't sound like it uninstalled, just that your indexing may be wrong
Update
I sent my Arctis 7 back and asked for a new one
it will arrive tomorrow
factory reset didn't help
hello i dont know why but my screan on my box to my SteelSeries Arctis 7 wont like come please write back i want help and it dossent come up in the software
Tag me when you here
Is anyone else with Arctis Pro having issues with their mic volume set to zero with the latest SteelSeries Engine software? Mic volume is set to zero in Windows and will not let me move it higher. I tried unplugging the headset, rebooting the machine but ultimately the only thing that worked is to uninstall SteelSeries Engine software.
I have a question about the Arctis Pro Wireless, if anyone knows the answer. I've looked at the Q&A and can't find the answer.
Are the RBGs on the headphones changeable? If so how? Is it hardware, or is there a software I should install?
Maybe a dumb question but my current headset said that it was RBG and I assumed that meant customizable. I was wrong. Ping with answer pls
@untold light Did you install the Steelseries software? I believe you can control the RGB there.
oh awesome, I'll download it. Thanks!
so i RMA'd my apex pro tkl, and now i have my old one with a cut wire, what do i need to do with it? i dont wanna throw it away, i wanna keep it on my wall as a like decoration, is that fine?
and i have another keyboard i got, which i wanna mod but dont wanna mess up, if i mod the broken apex pro, and check it out nothing happens right
sure
you can do whatever you want with it
even replace the wire?
try and put a new one
cuz ive seen that mod and i wanna test it on the apex b4 i use it on my other keeb, just dont want steelseries saying like 😐
cuz they tell u to break it, and i dont wanna repair it and they think ima do sum w it especially since the S/N is already claimed as RMA
As long as you don't try to resell it you can basically do whatever with it. They intended for you to throw it away or take it to an electronics recycler but if all they had you do was cut the wire and you want to try and replace it then go for it, it's your property
i couldnt make a ticket not sure why but its the engine its self deletes itself randomly i download it my storage goes down i close it and my storage goes back up
so, if i were to add a new wire, just to make it light up, cuz i wanna have it on my wall next to my pc lit up, i am able to do that?
cuz i dont want tehm to have like the serial number den ban my steelseries account for using a RMA'd product ya feel
but uk i aint selling it
that was my first mechanical keyboard ima keep it close to me got it as a birthda gift
so i just wanna fix the wire and plug into my pc for a rgb decoration on my wall
like this but with a new wire so it can let rgb turn on
i download it and it only gives me the setup and then i do the setup download the actual thing close it and it disappears
ive fixed it i tihink
think
my arctis 5 pro wired headset ear pad thing cam off how do i get it back on?
hi

hi guys, i have a headset steelseries artic 7 wireless. whenever i play valorant, i can’t seem to distinguish what goes on around me. i feel like the surround sound isn’t working? for example i can’t tell whenever the enemies are behind me etc. is there anyway i can fix this? i tried downloading the software for it but the issue is still going on
So I just got my Apex Pro today and the OLED screen does not seem to work, I have unplugged and replugged and done a factory reset, currently waiting for ticket to respond so does anyone have any ideas?
hi
did u figure this out? it’s happening to me too
if it doesn't turn on and say "SteelSeries" or display the menu when you plug it in it's probably defective. esp. if everything else works as it should
should I get a replacement then?
that would be my proposed solution, yes
if you bought thru amazon or another seller it's probably faster to get a return thru them than thru SteelSeries
sure thing

I believe on PC the Surround Sound is processed through DTS:X or Windows Surround software, not directly through the SteelSeries Engine. I would make sure these programs are installed and working (if possible), if I am correct I think you should be able to use them on just about any headset, as they are an OS-wide thing (I could be wrong, don't quote me on this).
I believe some games additionally have their own audio software to simulate surround through a stereo output, so I would also try turning off all other surround sound programs, including any options in Engine, and see if it's any better that way, it's possible the sound is being over-processed and therefore doesn't work as well. It could be that the game is not compatible with the specific surround program your headset its trying to use. I can't say for sure, but maybe worth a shot.
Guys for some reason on steelseries gg it says my keyboard is not connected
even though im on a laptop
lemme guess, MSI?
yep
you can try to install an earlier version of SteelSeries Engine, from before GG came out, and see if you can get it to work that way
hmm. possibly a driver error or windows being, well, windows
true
restart everything is step 1, then you can try reinstalling things as necessary
Yep
And yet as you can see here the bottom rgb lighting still is connected and works
if it works its good
I cant manage to make my artics 7 wireless sound good in cs. I have it on default at the moment because all the settings i have tried only made it worse. I cant hear footsteps ect. Any tips on what to set the equlizer to or what to do to make it better? I find nothing on the internet that helps. (its like constant noise in it even when its almost completely quiet)
Hey all! So for my Apex keyboard I want to program several colors on the M and MX buttons too.
How do I do it?
I think I figured it out. But when I program the color white (for example) into M1 it puts on white, and then the usual L's just doesn't work. Help.
Why are some of them just greyed out?
Help.
So on one of my layers this looks okay.
On one of the others it doesn't.
I am in serious need of help.
Neither of my layers work as set up on the buttons now.
My app looks different.
Is my keyboard like outdated or something?
I am watching a tutorial, but it is so different.
Everything is sorted out.
Guys, i think something is wrong with the Steelseries logo on my keyboard.
It is red ish when it supposed to be white, lol.
Wth, it looks white in pictures though.
So, I have Steel Series Arctis 9x and they have troubles with in game platform voice chat. It could be my headphones, it could be my settings? Has there been any firmwares recently?
Oh, forgot to mention, I'm having this issue on xbox.
Red light means the mic is muted
guys
does steelseries sonar
work with arctis 1 wired
my mi cinut is like really low
The apex is old, they have a new apex line. The tutorial is probably using an older version of engine
No
guys i just got arctis 3 and i get no sound from my pc or my phone
what should i do
Yes, Sonar works with all audio devices whether they're usb or analog (like the A1)
Oh
I thought analog would not even be seen by gg
I guess sonar works for other headset brands too then
Last Update
new one doesnt have that issue
could i call you please and get step to step guidance
i dont know why it doesn't work for me though
One you've opted into the beta and see the Sonar tab in GG it should auto detect your audio devices when you open Sonar
