Sorry, I got an actual job to attend to, but gl!
ok
gl
hope ur ear will be better
This is what i mean (i watch youtube and they can hear it too)
before trying to figure it out, i recommend disabling sonar and just use the windows driver, see if it behaves the same
if it doesnt happen on the windows drivers, then you know its coming from sonar, as its still in beta
its the same
uninstall steelseries GG completely, reset ur pc, reset the headset below the cushion
see if it happens without the software at all
wdym reset your pc
restart, same thing

hi, i just bought the artic pro wireless. The problem is: my friend on discord say that my voice is very low but in windows setting and also discord, my mic is set to 100. i tried set the db to 3 in the equalizer in GG but they say, the quality is shiet but they can hear me still one of my friend tought i was speaking on mobile phone xD. is there anyway to higher the volume of the mic without loosing quality?
i don't know if it's me or the headset that has this kind of problem if anyone knows please let me know.
can someone tell me why my multimedia button (the button right next to OLED) isn't working? happens on my apex pro & apex 5
the steelseries sonar thing isn't letting me play any games, do i have to change any settings?
help me please, i am not able to turn off the stupid rgb in my artic 5's
the engine does not do anything
The newest version of Sonar refuses to switch my device to the selected one-
Never mind, apparently it just takes more than 10 seconds to switch, giving no indication whatsoever that it's attempting to
Why is this so slow?
Voicemeeter was instant
Now it's just randomly switching between my headset and the speakers...
Infinite loading when attempting to restart
same here
I tried resetting my password. The email went through but when I clicked on it it went to that "gateway error" thing
cant login either
it wont even connect to the bluetooth
is it possible to make a macro that is for instance the steelseries FN key + macro key rather than just 1 macro key
If Sonar is enabled, you need to set it as your default device on Windows and set your Headset as the output device on Sonar
I've got the Arctis Pro Wireless headset and all of the sudden it will disconnect/reconnect intermittently. I've tried unpariing/pairing, I've tried doing a full reset. Nothing has worked so far. Any help would be much appreciated as they are currently unusable for me.
same mines doing the exact same
did your come with a android like charger? @smoky crow
ehhh I don't think so? I just use the USB cable to connect it to the computer. Is that what you are talking about?
does it look like this?
Nah I think it's a mini b
I think that's the wireless headset cord
you gotta wait for it to charge
which is kinda dumb tbh
if your internet is trash like mines itll probably cut in and out on the volume
never had a problem before last week.
and my headset doesn't need a charge cord - it has two swappable batteries where one charges in the receiver while the other is in use.
OK off the wall question.. Dunno if anyone knows but.. I'm using SS Sonar for main audio and a USB condenser mic also running through Sonar, so one audio device is Sonar Gaming for output, and the other is Sonar Microphone for input. I'm trying to have a separate audio source for let's say, Spotify using a virtual audio cable. And then routing that through a different channel in OBS Studio. For what I need it to do, it technically works but I have no way to monitor the music without OBS picking it up on the Sonar Gaming output on the main channel in OBS Studio. Anyone know a work around?
so using a audio cable
specifically this
will turn the headset from a wirelss to a wired basically? @glacial chasm
No, virtual audio cable.. Essentially the same thing Sonar does, but is a separate plugin where you can route programs to that output to use as a separate channel in programs like OBS Studio
oh
And I'm trying to avoid using Voicemeeter Banana at all costs as it uses way too many resources on an already maxed PC, well not maxed but it IS maxed with VM Banana
well I'm going back to wired headphones thanks @glacial chasm lol
I'm confused lol
My internet is trash
the audio keeps cutting in and out
What's internet have to do with wireless headset lol
Why does the wireless steelseries acrtic 9x cuts in and out
when on yt
I literally cant fix it
You're using a bluetooth dongle with a wireless headset.. Does not use internet for that, so if your internet is causing some issues then you have a super weird issue lol
That won't fix it
Bluetooth dongle does not use the internet.. It's a wireless receiver/transmitter that is separate from your internet
but how do i fix this
i literally been trying to all day
to fix this problem
Well I'm not sure, but you replied to me as if you were answering my own question lol
Tried reinstalling all the audio drivers for your headset..? Like Steelseries GG ect.. Is it only YT, or does it do it on other programs.. Is it only internet based audio sources, or all audio sources...?
Also, does the video stutter too or just the audio
OH.. Here's an important thing to try.. Your bluetooth dongle.. Try switching to another USB port, 2.0 to 3.0 or vice versa
it does this for all the programs
Honestly sounds like a USB port issue, like it's not in the correct port type.. (2.0/3.0) Not sure which one is used on your dongle for the Arctis 9x
its connected to the bluetooth
but i still cant head nothing
volume is literally one 100
does the 9x have it's own bluetooth dongle?
nope
I have had the Arctis 7 and currently have the 7+ which both have their own dongles... The only other thing I can say to try is see if there's an update for your bluetooth hardware or device
Still sounds like a bluetooth issue from your hardware.. I wonder if the XBox wireless dongle works with it..? Since the 9x is also made for xbox.. I find the XBWireless dongle to be very efficient, not sure if you have that on your PC or not for wireless controllers
And no idea if it actually would work with it, I'm only assuming as a possible option to try if you have one available
The other thing, I'm assuming the bluetooth device you are using is built in to your PC.. It may not be able to handle the signals from the headset.. But I can't tell you for sure since I don't know your hardware
now im hearing it but the guys voice keeps stuttering
One of the biggest complaints I see online is the issue you are having, but on consoles.. And sometimes also on PC.. I think the flaw in this headset is relying on your hardware bluetooth instead of its own dongle.. I believe the 7x is like the 9x in that it can also connect to xbox (if that is a need) and I believe it has its own dongle
Did you recently purchase the 9x?
its like spotify is fully muted and youtube is cutting in and out
yesterday
i purchased it
and it came today
In all honesty, if you don't need it for console I'd run with the Arctis 7 or the 7+.. Exceptional sound quality and has its own dongle. Bypasses any issues with hardware related bluetooth devices.. I had my Arctis 7 for around 6 years, worked perfect and sounded great. The 7+ has a USB-C dongle, but can be used with a wire it comes with for USB-A if you'd like that better. 7+ uses SteelSeeries Sonar which gives you a lot more control in the audio EQ than other headsets. I'd actually recommend if you are able to swap to the 7 or 7+, it might be a better option for you. But again, I'm not sure if you also need it to connect to xbox, if that's the cast the 7x seems to be the best fit, but I don't have experience with that specific headset
It really seems like a bluetooth hardware compatibility issue, which is why I made those suggestions
trust me I'm never going back to wireless after this experience it doesnt make any sense
Yeah but.. Why condemn a wireless headset if it's your own hardware at fault.. After getting the Arctis 7, I will never buy wired again.. It uses its own dongle, its own hardware and works perfectly. Has excellent range, outstanding battery life. Believe me, it's not the experience you are talking about with the 9x
The dongle is the hardware I'm referring to
oh
When it uses it's own tech, it bypasses any issues your own system may have.. It uses hardware its specifically tuned to
idk if its acting like that because it needs to charge or what
I tried a $300+ wireless headset about 6 months ago that was supposed to be studio quality, lots of low key producers use the brand.. Was one of the worst wireless experiences I've ever had.. Got the 7+ and once again I'm hooked on wireless from SteelSeries
but it acts like it wont connect when I unplug it
I really think it's the 9x using your own hardware though, I can't stress that enough.. And there's many reviews online that show the same issue
and use to bluetooth button
Dunno what else to say, are you able to return the headset or exchange it?
The other option would be to try another bluetooth dongle and see if it connects to it, but that means spending more money if you don't already have one handy
nope im returning it getting my money back and getting a wired one
Your choice on that, but from someone who's used SteelSeries for around 8 years, I'd say don't ditch the idea of wireless just yet. Try one that bypasses your hardware before judging wireless to be bad π
Can someone explain me why all steelseries page and media all black and there nothing in it
I'm assuming it's matching the server black avatar lol
Im sorry thanks for you help really appreciated but Iβm sticking to wired after
Reason is I just can plug it up and play
Without a whole process
I was better off with my offbrand Chinese budwo headset
Well, the ones with their own dongles is the same process just with it's own dongle
But good luck to whichever one you get, the Arctis 3's are bad, although they don't work as well with the new SteelSeries Sonar software.. The default engine still works good
Ye but daam that type c dongle is big btw
It is.. But the original Arctis 7 had a round thingy attached to a wire instead lol If you have USB-C it's wide, but.. Most USB-C ports are single and alone so should work fine
I use the wide dongle with the USB-A cable so it's the same as the 7 dongle I had before lol
Well not mine btw
If I plug the dongle I can't plug my headphone
That suck
So that why I need to use the USB a extension to USB c
Doesn't the charge cable have USB-A on one side though? Mine does on the 7+ π
That come with it
I actually use the charge cable plugged into my keyboard by my chair, but I do have an odd setup already.. The PC is around 10 feet from me, and my keyboard/mouse is mounted to my game chair.. So the usb port on the keyboard charges the headset which is attached to a headset holder underneath the keyboard lol
@ebon wren SteelSeries home works fine for me btw
Was that ping needed ... no
Well here's another one just for being rude.
Well here one for you
Except, I won't complain about it lol I was trying to help you, but you do you.. Find your own solutions π
Mkay, but don't be mad when someone trying to help you like.. It's just a "blip", ain't that serious lol
Be glad I'm holding out because I'm on a community server lol When someone be like, why you ping me.. They get pinged for DAYS lol
Ye
Does anyone have an idea why my Arctic 9x Isn't connecting to my Xbox transmitter but my old Arctic 9x are instead of the replacement i got?
No its just a replacement because my other ones broke
however i cant get the replacement ones that i got to connect
uhmm anyone use steelseries sonar?
i sorta do
having some technical issue here where its static from my mic and the person that i talk with
How can i contact the support team so i can receive the proper help?
there should be a ticket for tht
what ticket?
should be a ticket system
or a help area
@mossy kraken go to info channels an go to #official-support, should have what ur lookin for in there
thanks
i saw ur chat in bugs, dm me, i had the same situation i may be able to help
Can someone tell me the difference between the arctis 7x and the arctis 7p and the arctis 7? Are there different features? Is it a compatibility thing?
My friends hear my game and music,how can i resolve that?
@wind summit make sure if ur using a headset u got the input to 2nd output
wdym?
ur using Sonar or no?
yep
ok make sure everything is to the setting of ur liking choosing
hmm
They say its the headset
ok so theres a chance u may have something turned up all the way
dm me ur settings for DS
SS?

ok so have ur settings on Sonar to Headphones
well
so u cant really pick in choose then, hmm try lowering ur input
and lower ur output some as well
ok
if u need to call me via dm
im adding u in case of something
kk
@tacit niche There is a pinhole under the ear cushion (non-mic side) that has a reset button. Use something like a paperclip to press down into it to reset the 9X.
Is there some way to set sonar chat as the default without getting the error message? (Sonar gaming is too loud so I don't want to tune the audio on everything.)
@tacit niche make sure they are turnd off and if its arctis 9x hold down the power button 15 sec untill it lights white and then pair it back to ur pc or Xbox which ever way u want and it should fix ur problem / issues if not try unplugging ur router if the signal / quality of the headset inproves then the problem is not the headset its just ur router in such terms
I'm using it and I get the error message.
ok, if u go back and use Sonar gaming turn the gaming down if at all possible
what happened to the server pfp
That kind of goes back to the issue. It'll either be loud or quiet.
eveyrhting was deleted somehow
hmm weird
@clever pawn before u go anything go to taskmanager see if its not in auto restart ur pc and start steelseries with admin/ conect ur gaming to gaming and then chat to chat and it should be fixed if not just stick with the normal way without sonar cuz its still in early access sadly enough try to take either sonar off inactive and restart pc and then turn them back on it worked for me and i have none problems what so ever so far
Alright.
cuz all i see is that
u got
this
but u should have more options
if u go to the controllpanel of sounds
@clever pawn this is what u should have if u have some more headset etc in the place
that u can turn on if possible
sure u can use the basic standard but it says any aswell that u can use but try to Restart and see if that helps anything out first and start it in admin
ive seen this issue alot to @peak tartan
same have i but perhaps its either his Router or its just some hardware reset he got to do either one but for Cerc its just that it's in early stage the dev team will sort it out eventually
yeah
Ye agreed
@clever pawn u still havin issues?
Nope, thank you.
np, hope u resolved the issue
I have a small question that is over my arctis 9's and the early access apex preset
does anyone have experience with the early access presets
i guess my question is since i am signed in and have it set, will it be saved although my EQ is set/saved to performance
hello bro i have a problem recently i bought ARCTIS PRO WIRELESS headset i m using sonar, but i have a problem, everytime i heard a backround noises everytime, i make a lot of settings but..
i saw a problem its from there
i put them in a lot of positions, when i m playing csgo thats backround noises/fizzle
is it when ur in a chat? or game itself
like feedback?
I dont know exactly its a permanent fizzle/noises
When i join in a game that sounds diseapper
have u tried lowering the audio?
when i had this issue all i did was lower the audio
what do u have set for game volume on Sonar?
Nothing i will show i a print
ok
ok so go to the Mixer tab
see what u have there, it may very well just be ur headset
yeah i just forget what it is lol
mby if u remember it can u tell me because its so ...
ill have to look into it when i wake up
please buddy tnx
np man, for now im off to bed
is @steelseriesadria on instagram official profile?
game itself
Thereβs like 3 holes
why does moments take up so much of my cpu
more than val?
the gg core is only this high when i turn on moments
its normally low
Yo fam, I need ur help, is it possible to disassemble this thing so that you can reassemble it easily after? I spilled Pepsi on it and now the wheel spins very sticky. I want to clean it somehow
Welp this is another reason Iβm sticking to wired
These wireless headsets can somewhat effect your gaming performance by an inch
Is this bait becayse no they don't? :D
I can't think of any reason a wireless headset would ever affect performance at all. He literally says it's when he has Moments turned on - that's for capturing gameplay and has nothing to do with wireless audio
Hi guys. I am having keyboard layout background doesn't show problem in GameSense page. Does anyone have experience on this?
is steelseris ee have game integration for valorant?
My chatmix feature on my headset decides it doesnt want to work. Its annoying
Is there a way to completely disable steelseries sonar? It's taken over my computer audio and I have to switch audio channel manually everytime i start my computer to my normal one to be able to hear sound
lol yw
now my mic doesn't work at all. great. (arctic 3)
Mezzy
same
Guys i tested my microphone and i count from 1-10 and it intrerups when im watching youtube
i have every single mic option on but no sound from the mic
do u use sonar?
So im trying to uninstall steelseries gg and its been stuck on the sonar uninstallation for like half an hour now
Still hoping someone can help me with this issue? firmware is updated.
Have you made a support ticket about it?
nope. Was just hoping someone might have an easy solution for me on the discord. Assuming I'd fill out a support ticket on the site?
Yeah. Making a support ticket is the only way of getting official support
does anybody know how to turn off volume sounds for bluetooth mode on the arctis pro?
there's an option to turn it off in the game dac menu, but it seems to only turn off sounds in wireless mode, not bluetooth
so it'll still beep at max volume on bluetooth whenever the volume is at max, or whenever you start playback on a video / song
Hey I have a really weirdly specifc issue with my arctis 7 ill try explain it but Ill be in a voice chat of some kind and playing a game and only voice audio goes really really really loud like unbarable its only voice all my other audio is perfectly normal though
Hi, I want to buy a new pair of wireless headset. As you know, wireless headsets' mic and voice quality are worse than wired ones. Yet I wonder, if i use a wireless headset as wired, would its mic quality run better?
I have notice a sound and mic quality increase when I bought my new headset however having other issues sadly, the quality (from what I know) doesnt change when having them wired
It is disappointing to hear that... I wanna buy an arctis 9 for both gaming, and listening music with my phone yet it's mic quality sounds not good. Thanks mate.
check your chat mix settings
this happens to me off and on as well. haven't figured out the cause yet, but it can be quite annoying when you're not sure whether the headset died, or it just randomly disconnected. i always end up having to power off my headset and powering back on in order to reconnect.
Mine doesn't disconnect and stay disconnected. It will disconnect/reconnect leaving about 2-5 seconds of no audio and repeats this process about every 30 - 60 seconds
oh interesting. mine will often disconnect and either stay disconnected, or will reconnect after around 10 - 20 seconds, so usually i just power off to save time either way. this happens maybe once or twice a week for me though, so not nearly as often.
hi how can i get the most out my steel series 9 headset for pc..... thanks
hey yall has anyone encountered the issue where the steelseries gg application randomly just closes by itself
possibly crashing
i notice my rival 5 doesnt have onboard memory so it randomly switches from showing red to colorshift
and thats my queue to know the app has closed itself
Hello guys!
I've been waiting for a re-stock of the arctis Pro Wireless for a few weeks now. Anyone with experience has any idea how long it tipicaly takes for a re-stock?
I really really want to buy that headset but I also have a time deadline to get them so I would like to know if I should just give up :c
honestly in my opinion go with a lower end heqadset
ive never had any issues with them at all
I appreciate your tip but I've received that recommendation before and the truth is that I'm very stubborn and I already made my up mind about the arctis pro... so if I cant get them I might just keep my old headphones. Thanks again though
yeah no worries @ionic vector, jsut givin another option
guys, is there a way to display a gif in the gamedac?
is there a way I can disable cloud sync for the desktop app? It never works right and just breaks/duplicates my configs now instead of syncing them properly...
I'm having a bit of an issue getting my Arctis 7+ to work. It outpit and input will not work at the same time in discord
It seems to be a setting issue but Im at 3 hours of this I am about ready to return it
sorry where would I find those?
Hey, anyone know why my Sonar is infinitely loading? (Tried restarting app, restarting PC, exiting through task manager, checking for updates for Steelseries GG)
I need help, out of nowhere my Arctis pro + game dac combo had its sound reduced by 80%, everything feels so dim and low quality, I tried fiddling around but to no success
Has anyone faced an issue with their Arctis 9 headphones, where the mic indicator light has now stopped working and noise suppression is also not working as expected?
Hey I am new here haha I ordered a aerox 3 custom mouse and apparently the order was canceled they didn't send me an email or anything to tell me why and idk how to get a hold of the company. Anyone know what to do ?
look it up for your headset
steelseries is using a bunch of cpu and idk why. i've tried restarting it and end tasking it but it still goes back to that or higher. idk it was at 50%+ at sum point pls help idk if this suppsed to do this
Please submit a ticket so we can further assist with troubleshooting. Could be a lot of variables involving GG
I have the Neo Noir set for my pc, wondering how to get or when the speaker plates will be available? I canβt even find them at reseller price.

Anybody had problems with audio crackling when you're playing games?
Only when tabbed into games, right?
put in a support ticket on their website. they'll usually replace it (because of how common the issue is) as long as its within warranty
my artic pro Wireless bluetooth not working
when i turn it on it , it pulses a little but then stops
i used to pair it on my phone but now i cant anymore
I managed to fix it by turning off Sonar, though that hardly seems like a good fix since now I can't use chatmix.
that's a bummer i really enjoy using sonar
But hey maybe they'll fix it at some point
but thanks you're a life saver
any help ??????
how long is the warranty do you know?
how do i turn off sonar it souds really bad with my headphones
Cant hear any sound when I set my output to Sonar
I've some sizzling noises
When I'm listening some music with bass
And only with sonar enabled
Someone know what's the features cause that
what country you live in?
denmark
if i'm not mistaken, European countries are 2 years
go to your order history on steelseries.com, and click the 'contact' button or whatever for the order
well
i bought it from something called elgiganten
here in denmark
since steelseries it was over double the price
Go through elgiganten support first then
They might have a separate return/warranty policy
I reset my PC the other day and while everything is working fine, discord is not recognizing my Arctis 7+ headset as Certified. Now Im not sure what it even does, but it's something I just noticed.
I've paired my arctis pro wireless but I've some crackling noises, I try to disable All Enhancements from windows
Settings balance
Repairing device
I've only this problem when i'm enabling Sonar
Yo guys, does anyone know a way to loosen up the clamp on the arctis prime headset? My head hurts like hell
Hi all. Arctis 7/9. When i stop playing the video, an unpleasant sound similar to crackling / clatter occurs. How can this be fixed? All enhancements disabled.
it also feels like this sound appears when playing some kind of frequency
(sry for bad eng)
anyone know how to fix sonar cause it just wont pickup my voice from my headset now that i enabled it
made sure everything is set to sonar and stuff but it just doesnt work
and i tried disabling it and my mic literally just doesnt work anymore its so broken π§
Is this mic supposed to echo Every single Times or is It normal Its a Arctis 3
i have a ultra wide monitor and when i try clipping gameplay on steelseries it is really zoomed in or dosent clip at all
any help?
does anyone know how to fix issues with the left speaker being louder than the right for the arctis 7
does someone know why the arctis pro wireless keeps making sounds on the right as if the hardware in there was sticking to each other and unsticking
When I go to steel series sonar tab It just infinitely loads how do If ix it?
having a boomer moment: setup sonar for my new 7+ in windows 10, everything in the app looks good, but i get no audio out of the "game" channel.
- Windows' default device is the Sonar Gaming virtual device
- I've bound foobar2000 directly to the Gaming device -- no sound
- I've then bound foobar2000 directly to the Chat device -- sound!
- I've then bound foobar2000 directly to the Arctis 7+ device, skipping Sonar -- sound!
- back to the Gaming device, no sound
- the Playback option is correctly set to Arctis 7+ inside Sonar
- if I change the output devices to my wired headphones, I get the same behaviour -- "Gaming" goes to nowhere, "Chat" gets routed correctly
the chatmix dial is positioned properly; if i swivel it while foobar's bound to chat, i can hear it increasing and decreasing in volume
any tips to get the gaming device to work?
Sonar is obviously seeing audio arrive at the Gaming channel, it's just not routing it to any outputs π¦
how do i send a support ticket lmao
how come sometimes on my apex 7 keys don't register
and I have to click the key up to 5 times to get it to work
sometimes the keys register twice
it happens very often
I tried cleaning the keys
factory resetting
everything
I'm literally about to buy a new keybord from razer if this stupid keyboard doesn't do it's one job
no I thought I could try can get some help here
I bought it a while ago so RMA is probably not a possibility
but this did start about 3 months ago
yeah, they make this channel so prominent in the GG app and make it sound like they provide support here -- i guess that's not true, you need to raise a ticket?
π€
So does SteelSonar allow me to edit my Voicemod Megaphone to make it sound better?
ik but like where cuz they're just faqs and stuff
none of the faqs answer my problem
click "my tickets" at the top
does anyone know if there's a marketplace to buy replacement feet for the apex pro tkl?
Hey guys so i recently noticed that my steelserious mousepad rgb is starting to fade away its only light up around the port area idk if there is a fix
Hello, I have Artic 3 Bluetooth headphones that I need some help with audio and voice chat. I play on PC and my headphones work fine for general usage; I can use them on discord etc, but when I load up a game, I am never able to use the voice chat, and sometimes the headphones themselves don't work. I'll try any suggestions thanks!
I am having problem in my inbuilt SteelSeries keyboard given by MSI gl65.
the per-key RGB are not in sync . even if I disable the the ight also some keys are showing some random colors (mostly blue and red).
and in some keys its not syncing with the color I chose in the SteelSeries gg app.
can anyone help.

hi there, everytime i start my pc, the devices in sonar are removed and i have to manually set it, is there any possibility to fix this?
Hi.. So on the Arctis 7+..i can't tell any difference when turning the chat mix dial.. Is that just how it is or do I need to connect to a pc to tweak something
There is like two different devices in the same headset. (Game and chat)
So I have the arctis 5 and basically what i had to do was to go in to discords sound settings and set the out put to the "arctis 5 chat" and set the windows sound to "arctis 5 game". If you want I can send screenshots when i get home.
To use ChatMix with the Arctis 7+ you need to be using the Sonar EQ software https://steelseries.com/gg/sonar

Hello, everyone!! Wondering if anyone here has the arctis pro gamedac with a dual pc stream. If anyone has it can you tell me how did you add to your setup? I added in a way that I don't think I can utilize the full potential of the headphone for my game. Any suggestion is appreciate it
If someone could help me fix my issues I am having with my SteelSeries Pro Wireless headset CONSTANTLY disconnecting and reconnecting.
lol i think u made a macro
head to ur steelseries engine and delete the macro
i created a new profile and it didnt work
i had the same problem
Any idea when the pro wireless will restock? Ive been waiting 2 months for them to come in stock to complete the rma :/
oop then idk sorry
The global chip shortage has made restocking the APW pretty rare. Best thing to do is sign up for an email notification on the product page when it's back in stock
hello
Have you tried making a new profile?
Is it one with a screen? You could try applying a lighting preset through that
i mean if i change profile and then go back to the profile i wanna use it works
but then it stops after a while
Hey all. I have an MSI GE60 from like 2015ish and my steelseries keyboard stopped working after I did a plug repair. Tried installing steelseries 2 but not even sure thats right. Says the one I have is Steelseries 103 key. Anyone know what to download for that? Thanks.
I believe there's a version of GG/Engine on MSI's website
I think someone told me this laptop wouldnt be compatible with GG version. Yes I read that in a forum.
The MSI keyboard thing can be kind of weird sometimes. I think a few updates back in GG they had broke MSI compatibility completely but I believe that's fixed now. Regardless, you'll need to download the SteelSeries software listed on the support and driver page of your specific MSI laptop for it to work
Anyone know why my 7 wireless suddenly stopped turning on? Worked perfectly fine yesterday, plugged in to charge last night and today wont turn on whatsoever. Tried restarting them with the pin reset and nothing
no clue
anyone know why my apex pro tkl f10 key is red whilst the rest of my keyboard is purple
Anyone have a fix for Moments not being able to export? Anytime I try and export a clip in any file size it just stays at 0%
Used to work any everything else about the software works fine I just can't export
Guys i have a artis 3 and everytime i go in a discord anyone can hear my game sounds anyone know the fix for this or do i have to enable something on the steelseries engine
I need a fix for this ASAP
I don't have steelseries headphones so I'm not sure but I'm guessing your output from in game is the same as input for discord
Do your headphones have multiple outputs that you will still hear in your headphones that you can change to so your tms don't hear?
Also, do your tms hear near full quality audio or more echoing
I have the same problem, just with a different key, and color. But it's because of a broken RGB light. It's either the R = Red, G = Green, B = Blue lights that are broken on that key. There's pretty much nothing you can do about it.
Edit: I think it's the blue light that is broken on that switch, since red + blue would be purple if you think about it like that.
Try to change your "F10" key to blue only, and see if it has any color at all.
If it doesn't, then there's your answer. Your blue light on that key is broken.
No even if im talking in game people also hear echo
Can you send a ss of all output devices you can choose from your game? I'm def not the best person to be helping you but I'll try my best
Check your dms
Hello, I'm new here. I have a SteelSeries Rival 650 Wireless, but the LED strip on the left side of the mice is not working. Can I replace it? And where to buy it? Thank you guys so much!
hey hey ! I wanna ask whats the max Miliseconds for mouse macro ( Rival 3 ) ? I wanna make 1 hour (it means 3,600,000ms) cooldown for it but its working so early ( kind a 20 mins)
I have no idea
Never tried setting it so high
Why do you want it to be an hour? Maybe there's a workaround
anyone know how I can fix this? I dont see any other audio output, and I need to use the sonar chat/game output. If I make a clip now there isn't any sound
i got arctic 9 wireless about a week ago , and now my mic seems to be very badly creating static and barely hearing what im saying making the microphone un usable , i tried turning sonar off and back on . restarting my headset and even looking for updates to the headset itself. any suggestions ?
The Arctis 1 wired doesn't have Engine support because it's using a 3.5mm jack instead of USB
3.5 mm es
Anyone?
hey my arctis pro wireless refuse to connect to the dock that they come with, i haven't even had them for a week, so I doubt there is any hardware damage
they have been connected before and I have tried to pair them but it won't work
are you sure your sonar output is set up well?
are you sure they are charged?
i'm positive
try to connect your dock to another input in your pc and try again then
as far as I know it is
have no idea then, but if one of your sonar is set as a default device, you can choose that and everything will be alright probablyt
Yeah but my sonar doesnt show up as an option
in your windows settings?
If you want to setting your arctis 1 then open tab sonar
just have game selected as windows default like cso said
my arctis pro still wont connect
i think it has something to do with the headset itself,
because this shows up in the engine
and i can't install the new firmware btw
I have the same issue. I bought Arctis 7P+ yesterday. I can hear crackling noise when I stop the video or music. Is there any way to fix it?
Hello everyone. I need help I have two Nimbus steelseries controllers, but if I connect them to my Apple TV they have the same address. How can I do it?
no, i give it back:)
is there anyone that can guide me to the best audio settings for CsGo for this headset please
hey should my arctis 9x have what sounds to be a screw loose in the left ear
Anyone have a lot of audio issues with an arctis 9x on PC?β¦.i have a lot of audio stutter and breakup while playing various games and itβs honestly getting to the point that im getting ready to toss them and get a better headset.
I have the Arctis Pro and literally JUST arrived today and as soon as I plugged it in I have a constant static noise
What system are u using?
PC
yes
Disable an see if tht helps
how do I disable it?
Same with u try disabling Sonar (if u have it)
Go to ur settings in SteelSeries
Does ur headset have any volume keys? Or a setting for itself
the static started as soon as I plugged in the headset before I even downloaded the steelseries app sir
It is a wired headset with a volume dial
I see
I had one with a volume dial, but i dont remember what u did to help thr noise
and the pro has a dial on the main part of the headset which I have turned all the way up
I have a Arctis 5, no problems and then I switch to this and static noise. I traded the wires to see if it was a wiring issue but the noise still persisted even with my old wires
strange indeed
faulty product?
I don't wanna give up yet because I truly believe its something somewhere
I mean there is a chance it COULD be faulty, but try everything first
I have looked at default settings/input output settings/
I tried the noise cancelling and used all the aid that tech support could give online and went through 2 reddit forums
that's all I have got though
Idk, ive always used off brand items
gotchya, well i greatly appreciate your help
Np Cobalt, my dms are open ill always try n help
Yo so this isnt steelseries related but I really need help. So I started up my PC and for some reason my windows ssd isnt showing/working I dont know whats happening bc I didnt do anything it just randomly stopped working its showing up in the bios but when I boot from it it says reboot and select the proper boot device

And don't get any "banner" that I'm supposed to see when I connect the gamepad via micro usb.. any ideas?
Does someone know how i can fix this problem that the keyboard is not connected with steelseries engine gg?
I already did re-install the steelseries engine a few times but it didn't help
Hey guys, cant seem to get Sonar to work at all.

Hello, does anyone have a fix for this? Everytime I start PC, the adapter for the Steelseries 9 Wireless doesn't get recognized. I have to disable and enable it everytime in the device manager settings

Hey, does anybody know how to escalate a submitted ticket with CS?
Been trying desperately to get into contact about the materials made for the series 7+
Basically my skin started burning after trying the headphones on the first time. It's been at least a week, and my skin has burns
Doctor can't do much unless we know what the stuff is specifically made out of
Last week
I did make contact with somebody but they've been silent since
I sent another message in response to them saying they'll get back to me on the materials
18th, 18th, 19th, 19th (the last 4 messages)
If you haven't heard back from them thursday, can you DM me your ticket number then?
They told me what the material was in general but was supposed to get back on the specifics as the original description was too vague
Sent
Can you poke me on thursday if you haven't heard from them then?
Thank you
I hope I can get this resolved sooner because my skin has been burning all week, and it's spread to my lymph nodes
We can't figure out what it is, and it hurts
I'll see what I can do
Thank you
aim master why cant we login
That's a good question. Doesn't work for me either. Will report it
Hi !! I have several problems with the Arctis Pro headset that I bought for my Macbook.
- SSE app infinitely loads despite reinstalling and restarting
- the sound quality is very poor
- I hear an horrible sizzle
Ty for your help !
My mic sound fine at first but when I start typing if sound like a robot and stays that way until I unplug it and plug it back in it repeats the same process is there any fix
I can't find surround sound on/off option
right here
it's on now. still now showing the other options
anyone have a good eq for music? (arctis 7/9/)
can not find sonar chat in "Chat" and steelseries sonar "Game" in game
hi i got an arctis steelseries 3 wired, but when i speak through discord and i have yt playing in the background my mates in discord can hear my output sound, anyone else having this issue ?
stereomix is already off etc
Anyone have steelseriesβ pro wireless and can confirm whether or not itβs a con to choose the wireless over the wired? Iβm tempted to get the nova wireless over the wired but Iβm not sure (either with the dac though ofc, if nova wireless is compatible with the dac and this and that)
I have a pro + gamedac and tempted to switch to the nova wireless with its little dac thingy but Iβm not sure if itβs a bad idea or not
will arctis nova pro be sold in Russia?
That's a bold question...
Your best bet is through 3rd party sources
what do u mean
Retyping this- shdjhs
You may need someone from another country to buy it and ship it to you, then paypal them compensation. Or you could use another website like mercari or eBay or something but you canβt guarantee anything with those websites
retyped it even though original asker probably already read it lol
those selectors are to choose where the virtual audio devices (sonar game/chat) will be played from. so you would choose arctis game for game, and arctis chat for chat
Help with the problem. I have arctic 9x, when I turn on Discird, I completely can't hear the game and music from the browser. If there are games and music from the browser, then when I turn off the music, the sound from the game disappears.
Hello,
Last 2 days, whenever I use my mice scroll wheel (ss 310) does some weird jumps when I use it sometimes up sometimes down. Is it a known bug and is there any way to fix it?
Has anyone else's Rival 3 paint started coming off? Now the texture is rough to the touch.
-_-
hey all, hopefully someone can provide me with some advice.
I received the Aerox 9 today, got it connected to the pc using the USB cable > wifi connector. How ever the mouse keeps randomly resetting itself (flashing white).
Steps taken:
- reinstalled the steelseries GG software
- manually removed mouse drivers and reinstalled them
- restarted the pc
None seem to help. Issue also seems to happen when I am using mouse without borders to swap between personal desktop and work laptop.
Hopefully anyone has some pointers for me
Hey how can I participate in the giveaway since steelseries is no longer live?
This . Voice is turned down -12db. but still hearing other people in the room here for example with the "Live Mic Preview" on
Oh wait that's for game audio. that isn't for the microphone nor is it for your discord chat volume
im trying to update my mouse and at this part when i do what it asks, and press enter to continue, nothing happens. ive tried disconnecting my keyuboard and reconnecting it, making sure the window is active, nothing works. i cant update my mouse and now it won't work wirelessly
press enter?
i am?
use alt+tab to focus on that window
Scroll down a little ;) these would help more in my opinion than actually adjusting eq if your trying to cut out things or adding "compression"
Unless those make no difference either
nope.. those made absolute zero difference
actually no difference. and im not deaf or anything
Hmmm you may need to factory reset your device but I don't know how to factory reset that specific device
whats the damn point of Chat and Mic tabs. they are both for mic
ohh ok . i may try that ! π maybe a firmware update would help if forced?
ah but cant do that
Well no I mean I'm talkin to gryf, you may have a separate issue
only these settings make a difference to the headset
Wait- are you tryina set things for windows or for another device? because sonar is only windows specific
wait . really? ??? i thought sonar was for the headset..
