bruh
no not nvm, i need help
So the keyboard still works after the spill and I let it dry but some of the keys kinda stick, what is the best way to clean them without damage?
What keyboard?
isopropyl alcohol still
is there a way for my steelseries arctis pro wireless headset to not have as much background noise, because it picks up my brother typing on his keyboard in the back
is the apex 5 water proof?
no
hihi everyone
Not in the slightest
If anyone has an apex 7 or apex pro with linear switches, can you tell me if you think 45 grams of force is too light or perfectly fine for gaming/typing
hi i have a question: if i would buy the apex 7 in UK version, and put on french azerty keycaps, would that work?
My arctis pro headset is not being detected by steelseries GG. I haver followed the steps online (uninstalling drivers, doing a fresh download of GG) without any success. Any suggestions?
Sorry for my blurry camera but does anyone know a quick fix for this cheap plastic break where the war muff connects?
I tried tape and it still feels very wobbly I love steelseries because the sound quality on the mic and for game sounds are so good but this problem happens to much
And it’s not that hard of a fox just use better plastic
So I just bought the Arctis pro gamedac and it seems that the sound is louder on the left side. I tried all types of different fixes aswell as playing around with multiple settings either from windows itself or the steelseries tool. Even on my laptop the sound is a lot louder on one side. Balance settings seem to be locked in place but are at the same level 🤷♂️ Any idea what it could be ? Might be me missing something but I can’t seem to figure it out
balance maybe?
Well they both show up as 0Left 0Right and I can’t move either. My best guess so far was that the gamedac locks them in place
Does anyone know where in the steelseries website I can order a single replacement wire for my Arctis 3 Bluetooth’s, I checked the website and there is only an adapter cable and not a cable with the aux end and the 8 pin for the bluetooth’s?
Thanks @weak geyser!
Are any of the Nimbus controllers compatible with android?
They are bluetooth i think so maybe?
Is there any way to reduce ram and cpu usage when using steelseries moments?
Hi, I have an Apex7 tkl and I'm trying to use imagesync, but it only uses a small portion of my keyboard. is there a way to fix this?
Hey, just to be sure do I have a one year warranty for my rival 650 since i bought it from steelseries correct, I was wondering if they would send me a replacment because my sensor is having problems ( yes ive cleaned it and did all that and it does not help the problem). So do I have warranty?
Do any other headsets from steelseries work with the PRO WIRELESS HEADSET DAC?
My PRO HEADSET is cracking along the joint where the headset cups connects to the headstrap so I am looking at my options...
I love the DAC but if this is going to constantly be happening its gonna suck, I have like 4 wireless batteries so I'd love to keep using the DAC but with another steelseries cheaper headset...?
No
thats really stupid
so my dac becomes a brick
unless I plug something into it
so i'd have to downgrade to wired
I just bought Arctis Pros but engine isn't detecting it. I couldn't find any FAQs on this for Windows
nvm i just needed to connect via usb
Hello guys, i have a problem with my arctis 9 wireless, i'm doing the things to pair it with transmitter
but it's not connecting
i tried to go on the website but apparently the support is definitely a useless bot ... sending me the exact same instructions i have on my userguide
gp75 leopard 10sfk keyboard no longer lighting up, i've tried reinstalling the drivers, messing with device manager etc... please help!!!!
This probably sounds stupid, but I just got a pair of Arctis Wireless pro's yesterday via amazon:
- Is there a way to turn them off without just leaving them to auto shutdown?
- Is it normal to need to hold the on button for a slow count to 30 to turn them on?
You can get the neo noir bundle out of the US right?
does anyone know why button 6 on my rival 650 doesnt work when its in wireless mode
keep getting this? how to solve that anyone knows?
how i can clean my qck edge M?
how much white noise is normal for the arctis pro wireless without being connected to the DAC?
how long does shipping take for Steelseries to ship to Europe (Belgium) This is my first time ordering something trough the official website.
Hey I have a little request, or question sorta, my wheel on apex 7 is not lowering the volume
is there some sort of workaround?
Hello, got the artic pro with gamedac, however it’s barley picking up my voice, is their a way to change sample rate?
Anyone else have LED color issues on the Esc key? (Apex 7)
Media wheel not working in YouTube on Apex Pro. Can't find anything on Google or YouTube, Human Interface Device Service is running and it changes my system volume when I have that open. Anyone else have this issue or a fix?
i just orderd arctis 9 and i was wondering will i get rainbow six siege quarantine in the box it comes with or an email
Having some issues with my sonar, used to work perfectly fine then one day it just stopped playing audio to me, like the audio is still going to the virtual device but not to my headphones etc. Any help?
So I was directed to download GG to have access to Engine to customize the color of my keyboard of my MSI Laptop but there is no access or app that is letting me do that. Everywhere I go is dead ends and leads back to engine before it got integrated into GG. Anyone got any useful direction?
Fixed this by disabling exclusive mode on both my headset and microphone
My Arctis Pro is starting to show the hinge issue, and I have tried using Gorilla glue to patch it up but it hasn't helped and it's still cracking more and more. What to do?
I just bought a brand new arctis 3(non wireless) I plugged it and nothing comes out, I went to the Sound Settings and it was disabled on default, I activated/enabled it but now sound still comes out. Any help?
I'm using SteelSeries Moments, and why does it use 75% of my GPU?
I could run Fortnite, Rocket League, Minecraft, Terraria all at the same time and it would only use like 70% of my GPU
so why does SteelSeries Moments need 75%
😭
Hey. I just purchased the aerox 3 wireless mice and my laptop does not seem to detect the type c dongle when inserted into the USB port. I have to use the extender to pair my mice for the 2,4 GHz option. please help i just spent 120 dolars on a wireless mouse where now i have to use wire.

@barren maple

i got an issue aswell i got a Arctis wireless pro headset untill 1 hour a go it was still working perfectly than my cat bit the mini usb cable of the transmitter of the headphone and it died i went to the store to buy a new cable now the transmitter is still working and my headphones still connect to the transmitter but it isn't connecting to my pc no more it doesn't find it and the steelseries engine doesn't find it either
buddy, this channel is for support from users only. Steelseries staff don't post here. if you want official support, see #official-support for how to create a ticket
out of stock means out of stock, ie they don't have any. they don't have different stocks for sales. I don't think they will get a restock in time
Okay thanks, I didn't know for sure what they meant by out of stock. I thought they were out of stock to get ready for Cyber Monday, but thanks!
sure thing
Is it just me or does Engine/GG like not working?
nah, it's fairly buggy for a lot of people
Lovely.

My question
I try to start some games and they crash and wherever my cursor was on, it turns to that colour solid, My board with the debug lights say its VGA. I dont use the VGA ports, I use HDMI. Im confused as hell and a new CPU will come later because the CPU I have now is burned out a bit. Been in my PC for 6 years untouched. and no, not actually burnt out.
I checked the AMD app thing on PC, GPU and CPU dont act up and get hot enough to then start to die.
DM any help you can.
As far as I know, I know the name of my GPU, CPU, and Motherboard. Help if you can, dont if you cant.

I just got it and have it plugged in, no sound from the headset and the mic isn't working either, I have the headset plugged into the splitter and the splitter ends both plugged into the right places, is there something else I need to do? All the setup guides I've seen are from 2016 and steelseries' own guid features entirely different cables than what I have.
Guys how do you make the steelseries writing on the side of the Arctis 5 illuminate

Anyone get their neo noir stuff yet?
Idk what’s goin on with the steelseries shipping rn
Anyone else having this problem?
try adjusting the brightness in the software. If you don't have it, go to the steelseries website and download it
Someone told me they got it off Amazon and it came in for them
Ion got the money for the noir sets 
Bruh I be wasting money

Muting the system audio, does not mute whatever is transmitted by Discord voice chats (?)
Like if I just mute the system audio and I am in a voice call on Discord, everything is muted except Discord's voice chat
And this never happened to me before with other headsets
So I assume is just some messed up settings
I've tried whatever (changing output device on Discord settings) but it doesn't fix it, anyone has an idea?
can somebody help me i have a steelseries artics pro wireless and my bluetooth does not wanna turn on
You can use something like voicemeeter to do both at once
Hello! My Sensei 310 suddenly stopped working. I was working in my Desktop this morning and the mouse was working fine. I came to the university, plugged my laptop on and then plugged the mouse in and nothing. The SteelSeries logo seems to flash twice very dimly everytime I unplug and replug. I tried holding both Left + Right click and DPI button in everyway and nothing happens. Did my mouse just died? I'm yet to retry the mouse back home, but no other computer here in my class seem to get it to work.
Windows does not detect the mouse in anyway, tried uninstalling all related drivers, rebooting, nothing
it means surround sound is enabled
you can disable it in the options menu somehwere
audio menu
ah yes my apex 7 just got delivered and i turn it on, the numpad 2 key isnt working
anyone have ideas what to do?
Hello ! 😁 Don't know if it is the place to ask for it, but here is my question
I just got an arctis 9, and heard about the sonar functionality. I wanted to try but I don't really know anything about how to set great parameters ahah. By any chance, did anyone do a sonar profile for BF2042 to have an I idea on how I could set it up ?
I have tried that, but it was already at maximum brightness
Is there any other way to make it brighter?
It’s like the light doesn’t (or barely) come out from the corners
For 80C$ i was hoping for better tbh
Hahaha ur a victim buying off steelseries i got my neo noir xl on saturday and it came yesterday
😹😹😹
Where yo house at?
London ?
hi i have a question can i connect my steelseries artric 3 with the app
What app
steelseries engine
Nah steelseries hardware wont connect to steelseries software unlucky
ay too bad
Oh ok
Atthat point you might just eant to open a ticket or request a refund
but my keyboard and my mouse does so whats the problem
The arctis 3 is doesn't have usb, it's analog
Engine/GG doesn't detect analog devices
I was wondering if someone could help me out for a minute..
If I have a steelseries device it should automatically show up when I click the "engine" tab in the GG software?
I think it should as long as it is engine-compatible
???? the arctis 3 cant use engine
has anyone had the issue of the QCK Prism Cloth XL Mousepad only lighting up near the wire and no where else? only lasted like MAYBE a year and now the whole thing doesnt light up anymore.
None of the analog headsets (Arcits 3, 1, and Prime) have Engine support because the Engine needs a USB data connection in order to get information about the headset and change settings
Hi. Got the Steelseries Apex 7. The multimedia key. Gotta ask - is there any rhyme or reason to the media it chooses to play or pause?
It works on VLC, it works on YouTube (both times while the other are open), but its not the last one I had open or whats currently active or really anything along those lines
Yes, what @weak geyser said
arctis 1 wireless IS supported
ask microsoft, they are the ones who make the API
The Arctis 1 Wireless is supported because it connects to the PC via a 2.4 GHz USB dongle. The Arctis 1 non-wireless version doesn't
Heyhey! I have a bit of a question haha
I got a world of warcraft themed steelseries mouse and have been doing a little research and am still a little confused haha
It said it uses 2.4ghz wireless to connect
Will it work with any 2.4ghz mouse dongle?
nah just the SteelSeries one that's meant for that model of mouse
if you lost it you can get replacements on the SteelSeries website
Ah alright
So I take it I can't just get any steelseries dongle? Literally one made SPECIFICALLY for my mouse?
If it's a Rival 3 you get the Rival 3 dongle, if it's a Rival 650 you get the Rival 650 dongle, etc, etc.
they don't have Unifying tech like the Logitech stuff
Ah. I don't know that I'd so easily be able to find a dongle for mine haha, idek what it's based on, it seems to be it's own thing entirely actually
what mouse model is it?
Oh
the bottom says steelseries world of warcraft wirless mmo mouse in all caps, model number is 62220-01
Oh dang yeh that's an old one
I take it that it's gonna be hard to find a dongle?
that one doesn't have a dongle, it has a whole bloody base station
Oh.
Haha
Does it happen to work over usb?
I see the usb micro port so I'd assume yes?
That's a dumb question
if you've got the base station you should be able to plug it into your PC and use it. If not, you can try the USB, most SteelSeries wireless mice work dual wired/wireless
I should just plug it in and check
this is what the base should look like, for reference
kinda hard to miss
Also IDK if this one uses the current Engine, it may have had its own custom skinned version
I don’t know alot about the engine stuff haha
You shouldn't need it unless you want to map buttons or play with the lights
Ahhh
Also
So yes it works over usb but
It’s very
Laggy and choppy and as a result unusable
you'll need Engine 2 to play with the settings
As I’m reading, it may be driver issues? I’m gonna install the steel series software and see if installing drivers from there may help
Ah, alright!
Thank u
sure thing
most basic question ever that i cant figure out
i downloaded the engine, steelseries gg or whatever
i can not figure out to get to configuration
for my headphones
How are they plugged in?
Installing the engine sure did fix it! thank u!
welcome bro
right ok, so USB then
it should show up in the Engine tab along the side of GG
it does not
in the engine tab nothing is clickable except missing device
They are connected, I have audio and my friend can hear me
ah, it's a bug then. unplug/replug the transmitter (try a different port too) and try restarting Engine if it still doesn't show up, then do a reboot if that doesn't work. if it still doesn't show up, you can try reinstalling GG or find a previous version of Engine.
ok so im not a fool
nah, GG has issues like this a lot
bit of a work in progress I guess
Make sure the transmitter is in PC mode, too. dunno why it wouldn't be but it's worth checking
lol, yeah. first thing I try, every time
sweet, have fun with it then!
thanks
sure thing
Anyway to set the engine to it's default theme instead of the WOW one?
doubt it
Ah, unfortunate
it's part of the experience 🤷♂️
Hey, Ive got a question for anybody who has an answer.
I got a quickprism, and when I took it out of the package, it was all bent out of shape, when I lay it down on my desk its all wavy because of the way it was packaged I suppose... so does anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this and make it flat?
Love the mousepad, its great! but I just need to get rid of the waves to make it sit flat
ive been trying that for a it but it bends back pretty quick
how long have you left it?
its been a couple nights on and off, so maybe just consistency would do it
yeah
Alright hopefully that works then, thanks!
I have a L SteelSeries QCK Cloth RGB Mousepad and just a few minutes ago it's started freaking out
I have it set to the full rgb spectrum and an hour ago it decided to stay hard white
when i changed the settings it would properly rgb but only for 1-2 seconds before it'd go back to full white
now the entire mousepad is flashing between light blue and red, i'm not sure what's happening and if that's a warning system but idk what to do to fix it
nothing on the GG engine seems to work
now it's just solid red
always had good experiences with support but today my RMA just got declined and my ticket closed without any explanation even though I provided everything they asked for, do they just not bother anymore?
aaand instantly closed my followup ticket asking for an explanation... guess i'm never buying steelseries again O.o
Maybe an out-there question, but has anyone had issues using Arctis 9X's on GeForce NOW?
My Arctis 1's work fine, but my 9X's have no sound whatsoever. And it's completely system wide. All audio stops until I close GeForce NOW
I doubt anyone has even tried using 9X's on GeForce NOW, but I thought I'd ask on a whim
So i just got my arctis pro wireless, and the sound is absolutely horrible and dissgusting when i use it wireless
when i then swith to wired its awesome
what should i do
im having problems
i bought an arctis 5 but it says its an arctis pro in the software
i turned off the lights and i cant turn it on again
cheers, i've bought an arctis 7+ around 2 weeks ago, got problems with disconnects everyday... which is stupid yes but was "okayisch" for me.. but now since 1h ago it disconnected and reconnected itself.. the "sonar-beta" isn't working at all i've got no more sound with it neither is the microphone working. if i deactivate sonar and just using the headset i have to turn the volume on Windows, on the headset it self on 100% and discord to 180% to barely hear somebody in the voice channels.. if i'm listening to spotify or youtube as soon as i start typing on my keyboard i can't understand anything beacause it's so quiet.. 🤔
Hi,
I'm trying to follow the RMA process for my Steelseries Arctis Pro Wireless, I got the S/N from the transmitter base instead of my worn out headset (also didn't keep the box) but I'm sadly 1 number away from the 19 characters length...
DId something similar happened to someone here?
is there a way to actually lower the "noise cancellation" on my series 7 cause i cant really hear anything even if no audio is playing
is anyone familiar with the arctis 1 wireless?
really could use some help
basically the wireless just stopped working, came home from work unplugged the wire cause i charge it while im at work, an the wireless does't work, wired it does but as soon as i unplug the wire ti stops working...
Maybe the battery died?
battery for what
I mean you don't use charge when using a jack to plug ur headset to the PC...
Also can you see the level of charge of said battery if fully charged?
Is the Apex Legends ingame light effects not compatible with the Apex Pro keyboard or am i missing a setting i should toggle?
Hey i need help my arctis 5 headset arrived today and it sounds awful any tips or should i return it?
anyone at all?
Return it
Anyone know what I need to do to fix the light disbursement into the light tubes around my qck prism cloth xl pad? This is what it looks like atm
I have a L SteelSeries QCK Cloth RGB Mousepad and just a few minutes ago it's started freaking out
I have it set to the full rgb spectrum and an hour ago it decided to stay hard white
when i changed the settings it would properly rgb but only for 1-2 seconds before it'd go back to full white
now the entire mousepad is flashing between light blue and red, i'm not sure what's happening and if that's a warning system but idk what to do to fix it
nothing on the GG engine seems to work
Don't know of a way to fix it, but my first Prism XL had that issue too where the whole bottom right section had extremely dim lighting. Contacted support and they gave me an RMA and sent me a new one which has much more even light distribution.
will they actually send a new one though? even if its out of warranty? ive had it for like a year or so @weak geyser
Not if it's out of warranty, sorry
and also i dont have a receipt lol who keeps receipts for a year lol
so im basically screwed lol fml what a waste of money. figured it would last more than a year
I’m new to gaming and only recently got a PC but I was wondering whether gaming headsets are region locked or anything? I’m currently in Europe but plan to go back to America during my breaks and didn’t know if a headset I bought in Europe will work in America too? I’m trying to order the Arctic Pro + GamDac if that makes a difference?
Hello everyone, have found nothing on the subject here right away.
I suspect like some others here, the audio source is switched frequently between speaker and in this case Steelseries Arctis 7+.
With my previous headset, the audio source was automatically switched when turning the headset on & off.
This is not the case with the Arctis 7+.That means I have to go into the Windows settings every time and change the audio source.
Does anyone know how to do this easier?
hi there, i have a SS rival 500 mouse, and the scroll wheel has been acting oddly since updating to GG 11.2.0. Does anyone know if there is a download archive so I can confirm if the new version is causing my issues?
It is will not know where u are
Headsets do not track your location
I could bring an arctis 7 to antartica and it would still work. It would also still work on the ISS
Can anyone help me fix my microphone issues the head set powers on audio is amazing and no one can hear me speaking im not sure what else to do
@here
Do I need anything other than GG to use DTS on my arctis 9s
No not really
Make sure that the microphone is on if there is a button on it or try to reconnect the microphone to the headset if it is detacheble.
done already
Hmmm
Then I would head over to contacting their support team: https://support.steelseries.com/hc/en-us
There support site is garbage ive done everything on their 3 times over the only thing left to do is factory reset the PC and im not doing that
im just gonna buy a yeti mic and go from there
yeah alright
right
is it just on discord
also
send them a ticket to say ur mics not working
if its on discord it might be cuz of a setting called attenution
try updating drivers
also factory reset the headphones
if uve done everything tho theres a high chance its a hard ware issue]
check if soemthings in the usb port or something maybe try a f reset i say that too much, also make sure ur pc supports bluetooth 7.1 or 5.1 whatever
have you had a poke around in engine?
Hey,
thanks for the feedback!
Yes, everything already looked through. :/
Reinstalled drivers, tried different ports, reset headset. Seems to me the USB-C dongle can't give feedback that the headset is off.
I have now helped myself with the software "Sound Switch" and a hotkey assignment.
Am i the only one with this problem? I ordered the neo-noir Mouse and mouse pad on the 21st of November and it said it would arrive at 24-25th of November But its stuck on "preparing for shipment" is there a problem?
Nice, sorry I couldn’t help more!
I think this is happening to a few people, there’s a chance it is just delayed, don’t take my word for it. I’m just a random person on the internet
If it still hasn’t changed it’s status in a few days make a ticket
Alright thank you
why bluetoth, it uses the receiver
hey I've been using rival 3 for almost a year now and I recently bought qck+ large steelseries mousepad and just realised it doesn't work on it nor on my table. Can I send it to the technical service even though it has passed almost a year? Can I get your opinions on what to do
Is there anywhere that you can share/download presets for keyboards? I have an msi laptop and I lost my configurations and being able to download similar ones would save a ton of time
Unfortunately not
having trouble finding a good sound setup for COD WZ i cannot hear footsteps until ppl are right on me where as my friend with a much cheaper headset hears them from much further out
Im using the steel series arctis 9x wireless
its everything no mic activity on the headset whatsoever
boost the 2kHz-8kHz frequency range in your EQ. apparently boosting frequencies in the range of 40Hz also can help.
In general you want to boost the higher frequencies, this is where footsteps live in the audio spectrum
anybody able to help me no matter what i do i cannot get the steelseries sonar offer to appear on the home page
im opted in for beta and i still cannot get it to show even after restarting the app
Anybody?
having this same issue
ive tried everything i can including a suggestion from reddit to start it through the program files but nothing has worked
i think its borked
my arctis 7's audio is not working. the mic is working, but not the sound. i need help quick
for some reason no matter what I do on the engine for my arctis 5 the changes wont apply.. Ex-
When I lower/increase the bass enhancement no changes are made to the headphones.
if anyone here knows how to fix this issue please let me know
these fucking helpers wont do their job
right...?
have you read the channel description
fr'
running as admin fixed that problem with engine for me @wise wagon
well saying it like that doesn't exactly inspire us to help you. if you want real support go make a ticket thru #official-support, in here is just community members helping each other(which we're not contracted or paid to do). If nobody answers it's because nobody knows, or they haven't looked through in a while, because we all have other jobs n stuff to do in our lives.
standard troubleshooting: turn it off/on again (unplug and replug), try a different port, restart Engine/GG, check to make sure there aren't any interfering programs (Nahimic, etc), restart computer, delete and reinstall Engine/GG. Try these one at a time in order, if it still doesn't work make a ticket and the support people might have some additional tips (factory reset? IDK if it has one but it might) or give you an RMA for it. Or, use a software like Nahimic to adjust your sound in the computer before it ever even gets to the headphones, it will have the same effect.
F, maybe a hardware issue, maybe make a ticket
Hi, anyone know how to stop the headset from turning off on its own? It just started happening today. I don't have the option "Never" in the power options. Only 5 mins, 10 mins and 30 mins. Please help this is crazy annoying. Thank you so much ❤️

anyone ever had an issue with the right ear cup on Arctis Pro Wireless's? i bought a set 3 weeks ago and the right ear cup died, but when you pushed on the ear cup it would re connect and work until i let it go, i took it back and ended up getting the wired set with game dac, i bumped the right ear cup on my gaming chair, i heard the exact same crackle , but the ear cup still works fine but its like there a loose connection in this one too, im not sure if its just me and its meant to be like that or what, i also feel like the headset is really tight like its clamping around my ears pretty hard compared to my other headset, that could be cause i got a fat head i dunno

Does anyone know if the windows balance function is available with the arctis 9 headset?
im partially deaf in one ear and on my current headset i have my audio balanced but i am aware that this isnt available on some headests.
I am looking at purchasing an arctis 9 but need to know this information before i purchase
Hello all!

Ps Please Mention me if you answer 😄
😄
you could make an ticket, they removed the site in the pin section.. so idk what the site is anymore
when I try to submit a ticket, I am redirected to their page which has the most asked question. This does not solve my problem. I regret the purchase of the SS Artis Pro wireless more and more.
Nope. i bought from someone new which was bought in july 2021.
whats wrong with it if i may ask?
I have a problem installing drivers. An error message pops up, please try again later. The headphones are normally detected in the computer and work, but without drivers I can not use all their functions. In addition, I am wondering about the noise in the headphones when nothing is playing. Is this normal or not? I had Artcris pro 1 wireless and there was no such problem there, and the Pro ones cost 4x more. : /
https://support.steelseries.com/hc/en-us, the chat button right below. press 'product help' , after that press headsets, after that 'questions or issues with my product' and as i read after thay ou pressed headset choose, 'issues after firmware update' and then you can make a ticket
btw reaction is very slow so expect that
no that isnt normal
The sound isnt normal ?
Thx for help, i have one more question. Does SS guarantee its products or only the seller or distributor? The point is, I don't have a purchase receipt for these headphones.
each distrubutor has it owns guarentee thing i geuss, here in the netherlands every thing with tech is guaranteed 2 years, its a law
let me check steelseries guarentee policy
all countries outside EU and australia 1 year
and inside EU and australia 2 years
Does anyone know if the windows balance function is available with the arctis 9 headset?
im partially deaf in one ear and on my current headset i have my audio balanced but i am aware that this isnt available on some headests
thats steelseries warranty thing @tender rapids
can someone please answer my question?
does anyone here own the arctis 9 headset?
please DM me if you do
Thx, we'll see when SS answer 😉
i do not
I was wondering if anyone could help. Earlier, my mouse turned off and flashed red, was fully charged so knew it was firmware related. I've plugged it in, allowed it to do the update needed, and it just keeps failing. If I try to use the mouse wireless, it's a no go. However it works plugged in. I'm pretty stuck on what to try next
I have the same problem, tried many things, Russian support just ignore. I created a ticket on the site but the second day just silence, for me the price of arctis pro is very expensive and such a spit in the face from the manufacturer is very offensive
Hi, I have a problem because the microphone from the arctis 3 headphones does not work for me. I plugged everything in, the computer feels it to me, but when I say something, I just can't hear me

Hey all, this morning my transmitter for my Arctis 7 stopped working (flashes once when I plug it in, then stops), anyone came across this before?
Has been working (and flashing when not connected) for the past year, up until this morning
hello how to reset the mouse settings in the program
Steelseries Engine?
Does anyone know how to fix the clip on the steel series gg app
go to the settings configuration page, click configs at the bottom left to open the sidebar, click "New" at the bottom, name it what you want, click Save, and boom, you have a new config with the stock settings.
Not natively, no. I just looked through the sound control panel for my Arctis 9 and the balance option isn't present
Alright man, thanks anyway!
There's probably some third party software that would let you balance wireless headsets but I don't know of one right off hand, sorry
Is it possible my mouse is interfering with my wifi connection (Rival 3 Wireless)
if I plug in the dongle, my wifi dies (slows down the internet or doesn't wanna connect to the router at all)
currently using bluetooth atm and now the internet works
(and no, I can't use ethernet, it's impossible to run an ethernet cable to this room)
If you have an older (or lower spec) computer with only a 2.4GHz WiFi radio then yes there's a possibility for interference, although I think that's unlikely in the best of cases. What's more likely is that whatever controls that particular USB port is on the same or nearby circuit to the WiFi control circuit, and that is the source of the issue. Try using a different USB port or a USB hub, preferably plugged in elsewhere on the computer (If desktop and you normally plug in front, try rear, and vice versa, if laptop, plug on other side) and see if that helps. If the WiFi still dies, right click on the icon in the taskbar and choose "Troubleshoot" to see if it comes up with anything. If still nothing, I don't know what the issue is and it's probably beyond my understanding.
Also, to eliminate the possibility of interference, use a USB extension cable and put the dongle across the desk from the computer. My Rival 650 came with an adapter for this purpose, I don't know if the Rival 3 has it as well.
The weird thing is this was working last night
I turned off my PC, then this morning, this started happening
Might be a bug then
I just purchased artic 5 headphones, and they came with the sonar system. I plug in in through the USB, but the microphone never works on the headphones. Is there a way to fix it?
check to make sure that the button on the back of the headset is in the "Unmuted" position (the light on the mic should not be red)
also check your sound source both in Windows and in whatever program you're using
there is no light showing up at all on the mic
does the rest of the headset light up?
nope
sounds like a busted cable
Returns and RMA are available thru #official-support but I recommend going through Amazon or whatever if you didn't buy direct since that's usually faster. Or you can chance a replacement cable.
does steelseries have a good keyboard driver for customizing the lighting profiles? i have a corsair and i like being able to import profiles that people have already made and dont wanna lose this good UI
GG/Engine is alright for doing your own thing but there's no option to import profiles from other people so you'll have to do everything yourself. As far as functionality, other than that it's pretty good and has a good share of nice features, it's limited in some regards and great in others
sure thing
I installed Steelseries GG and it told me I needed to update my Rival 3 Wireless' firmware. The process took a few minutes and seemed to work fine. After that, I went to customize the mouse's settings. I turned on the power-saving mode or whatever it's called and the mouse disconnected from the 2.4ghz receiver. Now, I cannot get it to connect in 2.4ghz mode, even using the pair option in the software.
only shows up if it's outdated
oh.. so it's not like Corsair where you can force a firmware update
what's the latest one anyways
@dense condor 
It's asked me to update the firmware twice now.
And I have.
That was connected via Bluetooth. Via 2.4ghz it's this:
But it keeps disconnecting from the dongle. I've tried several different USB ports. 3.2, .3.1, 2.0 on a hub... front and back I/O.
Hi,
I have the Arctis Wireless Pro and for some time now the Software does not transfers the Audio Settings Live.
Either it takes quite a while or nothing happens at all.
Can somebody help?
Uhh... what does blinking red light mean (Rival 3 Wireless)
my mouse blinked 4 times red after connecting it to bluetooth on my "hackintosh"
then it didn't connect after that
Apex 5 is nice
and now it isnt openening
Ouch
ye
Try restarting pc
i did
Are you on win 11?
nah man
Im not familliar with macos
I know this may sound a lil dumb but how do I setup arctis 3 Bluetooth
-what cable do I use to my pc
etc...
To setup your Bluetooth connection: (Arctis 3 Bluetooth ONLY)
With headset off, press and hold the power button for 6 seconds (power LED will blink. rapidly).
On your Bluetooth enabled device scan for Bluetooth headsets and select Arctis 3 Bluetooth.
Can I connect with cables?
hmm
it come with charging usb
and 2 more
This 2
@flat tundra
steelseries support already helped me thanks anyway
anyone from the support team who can help ?
SteelSeries staff don't post here, only users. see #official-support for how to make a ticket
Hey there, I've been trying to turn on my RGB keyboard on my GS66 Stealth Laptop for already around a month now, here and there, and its still not working.
This is even when I go into the SteelSeries GG app.
plus this random crap keeps showing up...
I also noticed FN + SteelSeries GG / Brithness UP & DOWN / Crosshair mode for my GS66 isnt working for some reason, anyone able to help with that as well?
system montior app in ss engine cant show the latest intel processor, core i9 12900k
does anyone know how to fix the arctis 7 randomly disconnecting?
takes a while to reconnect too
just got it out of the box yesterday
The system monitor app is open source and not maintained by steelseries iirc
I've had similar issues ever since Steelseries GG put these Sonar devices in the Windows sound settings. Mic level gets set to zero and it wont let me adjust it. I had to uninstall Steelseries GG to get the mic to work again. I could then reinstall Steelseries GG but it only works for a few days and then mic level gets set to zero again. I uninstalled and reinstalled a third time and lasted for about 3 weeks or so until it again set the mic to zero. I think I'm done with Steelseries GG. Although I love the sounds quality of the heatset I have not been impressed with the software. Honestly the headset seems to work just as well if not better without the GG software.
if you have a pre-2020 model you can install an older version of Engine which won't have all the extra crap that causes the bugs
i bought a steel seeris arctis pro headset today- bluetooth mic works great but there is no mic input with the dock
even the sidetone just spits out static
is this just a bad headset and i should replace?
I tried multiple computers with same result
Bluetooth input works fine but via the usb wireless it does not
might be a dud
Sad 😞
The only Engine I could find on their site is 3.4.5 and it won't install on Windows 7 or newer. I have Win 10. I have no idea where to get the engine pre-sonar crap.
there's a link you can find on Reddit to download any version
ok, thanks
sure thing
i guess what baffles me is how is bluetooth working but not through the usb???
gotcha, just as a sanity check as im about to go exchange it, it should just work plug and play right?
i should jsut be able to plug in the base and it works without issue?
normally
alright well heading over to exchange it we'll see how exchanged one does
Thanks for the sanity check
Hi everyone!
I've got an issue with my Arctis 5 headset.
It was working just fine for the past year, but now I've noticed that I can't change any sound settings. That is changing the default settings to any of my gaming presets does not work (manually or automatically) and changing anything in the default profile has no influence on the sound or the lighting.
Any ideas what's wrong?
Any tips to help me obtain a more neutral sound profile for my arctis 7p using the app and to fix the headset’s shortcomings ? Would I fix the inaccuracies in the mid and high bass by decreasing the amplitude in the 180hz band by 5 db? (in accordance with the frequency curve rtings presented at Headphones - 1.5 - Graph - RTINGS.com)?
Try it. If it doesnt work, just undo it
the mic of my Steelseries Arctis 1 doesnt work (wired). I can hear with the headset but the mic doesnt work. Any advice?
hello everyone. is that only i have this problem, or someone else? so i have problem, thats apex pro doesn't change game profiles sometimes, and never picks up macroses when profile changed automatically. manual changing profile fixes this issue. ps i know my english is terrible
I have that occasionally, the issue is that the software doesn't handle the automatic changes as well as it could and sometimes bugs happen
please help..
check if the correct device is selected in the program you are using. If your computer has separate mic and headphone ports you will need to use a splitter cable. also make sure the mic button is in the un-muted position
also make sure your connectors on the mic and computer are fully inserted
Hello everyone, i would like to ask you guys about discord gamesync, i have 2 steelseries product, arctis 5 and apex 7, im trying to configure my discord gamesense but it only shows my headphones and it changes my keyboards rgb lightning as well. I can not touch any configuration on my keyboard's lightning because i only see my headphones there.. Any ideas?
Mine has a dropdown for it
probably a bug
the artic 1 doesnt have any software right?
i did all of that but still not working
nope, it's plug and play
Hi all, so my mouse is laging when i use it, never did that till now, any suggestions
what model, how old?
does rival 3 (wireless) mouse has issues a malfunction on its scroll up and down, do i need to tick something on my engine steelseries GG or need a new set of battery? the issues occurs when i scroll down continuously and it randomly pops a upward motion and having a hard time to lower the page, and it also has the same issue when i go upwards continuously as well, and it goes down randomly
Hey there! Currently have a problem with the chat mix on the Arctis Pro gamedac. When switching from Hi-res audio back to chat mix, it stops working. Hi-res audio also has a massive dip in quality. Any ideas what the problem is?
hey, guys I just got a new Arctis pro with gamedac and im having some probs actually setting it up, I have followed everything i can find online as well as possible and installed all the necessary software, however, for some reason the mic works and I can hear myself through playback whenever I use m external speakers, but the audio isn't coming through on the headset.
The gamedac recognzes that there is audio and I can see the DTS on equaliser showing the levels but I cant hear anything and changing the audio output doesn't change anything, and ive tried all the diff outputs avialiable
I know with hearing yourself through playback is a toggle you can turn off
This on the program. Turn that to off and it should stop that problem
As for the other problem i'm not sure Wifimike sorry
thanks for the tip but that is fine, i cant hear myself through the headset, i only can uisoing external peakers, but my point in mentioning that was to show that the mic is working, just the speakers arent
Ah ok sorry
nono, dw you tried ot help but its a weird problem and it is also scaring me because the gamdac is registering sound, im just not getting any
so im scared that there is a prob with the headset or gamedac and im not quite sure what else to do
managed to find a fix, sorry for the spam i was just panicking
Oh nice how did you fix it?
Hi. When I download steelseries engine, I get steelseries gg and how to add the device there?
can i fix rival 600 side panels somehow

Hi everybody, hope you are great!
I just got the Artics 1 wireless, they works great on Smartphone but I've connected them to Windows and they are working on the left side only 😦
Does somebody know if may be some driver issue or something like that?
Thank you in advance!
some of the LED's on my apex 7 are not working all that well anymore..is there a way to fix dying LED's or are they lost forever
Does GameDAC work with Arctis 5 or 7? My Pros are about to break themselves so I was thinking of getting a cheap replacement, but do they work with the GameDAC? I don't really need other than audio to work
Hi. When I download steelseries engine, I get steelseries gg and how to add the device there?
Hi guys. I have a problem, my random mouse stops working, I have to plug it into another USB port to use it. It has been happening since yesterday and I don't know if it's caused. In this case, the mouse sensor sometimes stops randomly and only when I click the LMB does it start working again. Can anyone help me?
steelseries engine 3 got replaced by gg
it works just the same, just everything together
Engine is integrated into GG. When you download GG just go
to the Engine tab to configure your device. Depending on the device you have, Engine should auto detect it. However MSI laptop keyboards need to use the version of SteelSeries software accessible through MSI's support page for your specific laptop model, and if you have an analog (3.5mm) wired headset, those don't have Engine support
the steelseries apex 5 says "per key illumination", does that mean that you can customise what keys light up when you press certain keys
😀 great, thanks
im guessing i just need to install software to program it?
Yeah, it uses SteelSeries GG
Can someone help me with an issue i'm having? I don't know how to set up my steelseries arctis 3 headset with my pc, I can only hear audio I can't talk into the mic
I am assuming you have the wired version, not the bluetooth wireless. Do these things:
- check if the correct input device is selected in the program you are using
- If your computer has separate mic and headphone ports you will need to use a splitter cable
- make sure the mic button is in the un-muted position
- ensure your cables are fully inserted on both ends
how do i know which input device is the right one cause theres like 3
lemme send a ss
If you're going through the 3.5mm input jack it should be the Realtec Jack Mic
im using the audio splitter included w the headset
yeah, should show up then
Realtek drivers are buggy as heck tho, sometimes it doesn't detect when you plug it in
how do i update cause i tried but it said they’re up to date
you don't
there might be an app called Realtek Audio Console on your PC, which you can use to adjust options
dunno
you can try on a different device to make sure your cable actually works, a phone or a tablet with a combo jack should be able to detect the mic
you can use device manager to uninstall the realtek drivers, then reboot and it should reinstall automatically, if not you can use Device manager again to install. Sometimes also booting the PC with the mic plugged in will make it recognize it, I had to do that a while back when I had some issues with realtek detecting a particular pair of headphones
pain in the butt, if I have the choice my next MoBo won't use Realtek chips
Re: Arctic Pro Wireless... what the.....? Prior to this vid, I have "turned it off and back on again" lol
Anyone got useful input? I have an active ticket with support open

Hi there, for some reason moments doesn't auto clip anymore my League Of Legends games (it used to)
I have reinstalled moments, still doesn't work. Anyone having same issue ?
hello ive uninstalled, ended with task manager and opened cmd and reset but my steelseries app is still stuck on loading up, any fixes?
I recently got my Arctis 7 and use it for my PC, after I opened it in software the audio stopped completely.
I can disable enhancements in headphones properties and it somehow fixes it, but now I have my headset turning off after 30 minutes if I'm not talking in a discord call with someone.
try restarting pc?
done that
and did it work
nah still stuck with it loading
legit need it to just stop picking up background noise and then its useless to me
never had the problem that it is stuck tbh
Hey guys! So I received my arctis pros wired (with gamedac)about 2 weeks ago and I noticed that the left speaker plate only has one magnet, the top one. I created a ticket but after a week and lengthy response delays I got suggested for a replacement of the whole headset because they didn't have any replacement speaker plates hanging around. I don't want to send the headset back because it's gonna take 3 weeks for it to arrive to their facility in Europe and then come back to me and I don't have a backup headset laying around. Is anyone else having issues like this? If yes how did you find a solution? I will also provide some screenshots of the support ticket
try running as admin. Are you on windows?
is their only a steelseries in europe?

my computer's operating system is windows 7 what can i do
upgrade to 10/11 or live with it
ok thank you bro
if you have a good antivirus you won't (and if you don't have a good antivirus anyway you really should, both AVG and Avast have a good free option)
some buds of mine still use 7 and they have no issue aside from not being able to use more modern programs
they cut support for a lot of things, doesn't mean they don't work on the last available version, just means no new features
why is it not letting me enable gameplay capture
Try updating GG
Does the cpi stay what I set it to after I close the app? The colours don't stay the same, hence why I'm asking.
Yo there's an app on Google Play made by some person it's listed as "SteelSeries" but I'm like 99% sure it's not legit
Anyone confirm?
there is no mobile version of steelseries GG as far as i know
Steelseries has no mobile app

Hey folks, Before i open a ticket i was wondering if anyone can help here.
Recently got the arctis pro+dac, everything is wired correctly, everything is tight. but every now and then i will get loads of static feed back from voice chat for a few seconds then it goes. Game chat still stays clear tho. Anyone have an idea?
its connected to a ps5, but running on the ps4 option on the dac so i can use the voice/game chat mixer.
Probably has to do with the PS4 settings, since that's meant to use the optical and the PS5 is meant to use the USB afaik
Can I download the app even if my PC is windows 7 or not?
ignoring to update it 😂 Idk but I'll update it soonly
and the website says you gotta have windows 8.1 or newer
if you mean GG then no, you'll have to scroll to the bottom of the page to find a legacy version of Engine that was compatible. If you have newer gear it won't work with older Engine tho.
Hi can someone help me

hey im trying to install steelseries gg but its stuck on something and nothing i did worked. this is what its stuck on please if anyone can help:
Exec: "C:\Program Files\SteelSeries\GG\sonar\driver\Sonar.DevInst.exe" remove --device-hwid "ROOT\VEN_SSGG&DEV_0001" --inf "C:\Program Files\SteelSeries\GG\sonar\driver\vad\SteelSeries.Sonar.VAD.Extension.inf" --inf "C:\Program Files\SteelSeries\GG\sonar\driver\vad\SteelSeries.Sonar.VAD.inf" --inf "C:\Program Files\SteelSeries\GG\sonar\driver\apoDriverPackage\Sonar.Apo.inf"
Hello, does anyone know if there'll be a spanish layout for apex pro?

Hey, The discord giveaway thing doesn't appear in my Steelseries GG, even after enabling moments. Anyone got a solution?
This is what shows up in the home and the moments tabs.
The giveaway section doesn't have anything either.
restart computer
anyone knows?
Could you go to settings, look in about and make sure you are on the latest version?
might be a silly question but
a) do you have GG or engine already installed? if so, uninstall
b) try downloading the installer again from our website
i dont have it installed and i tried downloading again, i actually suceeded to install it by terminating a CMD process that was attached to the installer but then when i open the app it doesnt detect the device so I figured what i terminated had something to do with it
so idrk what to do now
alright hmm, im not sure how to fix that sorry - my colleague @noble obsidian might, but she won't be back online before tomorrow so you're gonna have to sit tight :/
no problem, appreciate it though thanks
btw, is the engine 3 and gg the same thing?
yeah, Engine got integrated into GG a while ago and it's all one thing now
oh ok
Anyone got a fix as to why my Arctis pro sounds like everyone is talking over a radio?
Everyone is saying my mic sounds weird as well too
probably a problem with a cable or connector being loose somewhere
