What is the default and normal settings (like normal membrane keyboard) for actuation point?
Does anyone have any eq’s for warzone 2? I’m on Xbox sx and I’ve recently purchased the arctic nova pro wired. Moved over from Astro A40 2017 and so far I’m not that impressed.. the sounds seems off like I’m in a tin can abit. I’m hoping a few tweaks will fix that bud does anyone have any recommendations?
thanks bro. do you have spatial enabled
anyone got a nice config for Assetto corsa competizione?
Still haven’t found a preset for the nova pros where I can hear footsteps on Warzone. Everything is muffled smh.
Anybody have a good Dead by Daylight config?
This is a good baseline to start with if you check this vid out.. Courtesy of @wooden frigate he posted it in the Sonar channel or search for a config there is plenty in some if the channels! https://youtu.be/uOrTMNRhAbY
Per popular request, I have covered in-depth EQ tuning for the SteelSeries Nova Pro Wireless headset. This includes tuning via the DAC for console use, and tuning via Sonar for PC use. I also show frequency response measurements for various EQ presets and how that works with other headsets. Thanks for stopping by!
Follow us on Twitter! htt...
could also depend a little of which headset you are using to be honest.. This is mostly for Nova pro W
Any good tarkov EQ Setups?
need good eq setup for arctis nova 7 on dis mic
Only with Equalizer APO
Anyone got a good config for 7P+ wireless. Preferably for warzone 2. Sonar
by any chance any one have settings for warzone using the equalizer apo
not really into sounding settings but I use kraken v3 x for APO just in case anyone familiar of how the sound thing work
Ive found a Youtube guide on the Warzone settings. I played alot with the default mw2 sound settings. But i found this one way better, more clear footsteps, no high sqweaky airplane sounds. - dont know if its okey to share links, but hes youtube name is GadgetTryTech, he has made alot of EQ Tuning on different headsets, i followed the Nova Pro EQ Tuning tips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wCSH4lGmEE
After two months of measuring headsets and the game, I finally have a new EQ video out! This one is specific to Warzone 2, Season 4 and newer. Season 4 has some minor changes with footsteps thanks to the new map and ambient occlusion being brought back. For this video, I measured footsteps on various surfaces, the sound of looting, air strike...
Does this include EQ for gg engine.
Does any one have good Eq settings for Cod MW2 DMZ? On console so no sonar
hey does anybody have a nice hardstyle/bass boosted configuration?
kinda struggling making myself one xD
@snow brook Do you have any config for r6, I'm trying to use the one you posted but I can't configure it the same
Uh hey
perfect thanks for sharing

How does that compare to the one you posted before?
The general sound is low (grenades, gunshots, wind) and the sound of footsteps is very present. I didn't test with drones, but I believe they are as expected too
I have a Sensei mouse but it gets stuck. What's the solution?
anybody play Kingdom Come: Deliverance? does anyone have any EQ settings for that game?

does anyone know what are the frequencies of foot steps on wz2 ?
hi there,i just bought arctis nova pro wireles for ps5,i managed to set up a kindoff footstepfocus version of a youtuber,who kindly shared some settings for sonar and engine.(gadgettrytech)
I play bf2042 or bf series only,but still the sound is a bit disappointing,does anyone played around for the console to hear enemy footsteps directions better with bf2042?Thanks in advance.
I also know the game is pretty bad with footsteps,its not as it used to be..
So the finetuning for specifcly that game must be a grind,therefor i ask it here..
Meanwhile im adjusting settings,if i am happy with it i will share for the peeps who are interested. Update : After hours adjusting new settings i decided to bring the nova pro wireless back to the store.For the console the adjustments are limited and cant find the perfect eq settings.I am gonna give the turtle beach stealth pro a go.I will keep updated here for comparison,if anyones interested..?
Bro I’ve been searching for so long and can’t find anything reliable. Rainbow 6 rw settings for ENGINE (Nova 7x on a ps5) I’m trying to get footsteps and low explosion noise but I’ll settle. Thank you
Need to authorize Steelseries with Discord I believe.. Go to Engine -> Apps scroll down configure discord and turn on 1st time atleast go into discord and check under authorized apps in settings.. Mine is turned off in engine bc I didn't really use it but it still say Certified unless you using Sonar, none of those outputs seem certified!

Ok it's probably been asked a million times, well, this is a million and 1, Anyone have some decent setting for Starfield?
Speakers and Headset ( Log G93)
Might be hard to get someone with your specific setup, I'm about to work on a Starfield EQ, but I'm on Steelseries Arctis 7+.. Can't hurt to give it a try once I've posted it, but it may requre some tweaking to cater to your specific audio setup
STARFIELD GENERAL EQ:
I've worked up a general profile for Starfield, tweak as needed.. Start with the sliders first.. I will be posting another config that includes surround, this game is hard to get one profile for everything because the mids are just so dominate. I'm using the Arctis 7+, my past configs have been used for Nova headsets and other third party headsets, hopefully this config follows the same:
LEFT TO RIGHT
BAND 1: Low Shelving
3.4dB 32.1Hz 1.182Q
BAND 2: Peaking EQ
3.6dB 47.30Hz 1.974Q

STARFIELD GENERAL EQ - SURROUND:
Here is the surround version of my Starfield Config, please note there will be some things you will lose when activating surround. Weapons don't have as much of a punch, ALL mids are greatly enhanced which I've tried to compensate some. You will get surround, but you will lose some of the sound quality. But for those who love playing in surround, it should be a decent workup. Please follow the speaker positioning as it is different from default:
LEFT TO RIGHT
BAND 1: Low Shelving

anyone having sonar crashes?
as soon as i go to edit settings it force closes
reinstalled and everything
I was just using Sonar to create a Starfield Config, no issues here
Have you checked antivirus or firewall?
Wrong channel for that :)
You can ask others for help in #1047622297382567936
gotcha srry
No worries :)
anyone have a config for CS2?
Check the defaults and you have either Faze or Valves presets
I have everything by default at the moment
Sonar?
yes
check under "Game" configuration drop down menu for more defaulted options
what is the difference between valve and faze?
Not a clue mate, don't play the game.. Only Tarkov on PC 😉
But try them out and see if you like any of them or try to custom your own by duplicate one and do some testing..
ok thx
Hello! Does anyone have settings for valorant? The shots sound very loud and I don't know how to turn them down.

hello i need help i literally just bought the steelseries 9 wireless and its just blinking blue not working i downloaded the software it got stuck at a certain point so i closed the software and reopened it and then it downloaded fast now its not working and just blinking blue any help? i recently just came back to steelseries too this is just awful
Do you have binaural audio on or off with this preset? And do you use surround sound in sonar? 🙂
Binaural On. Surround OFF.
My EQ
I wondered why the curve wasn't exact like your before even doing your settings.. But this new shared one does 🙂 So I'll test that as well // Cheers mate
Thanks. Tell me what you think after testing it.
Been enjoying the one I made myself, but curve was a little outsid of pic.. Only issue I have is that it's very low compared to the other tabs, media, aux etc.. So if I forget when I go to browser I go deaf 🤣
EQ settings that I use for my SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, with replacement cushions (wicked cushions freeze gel variant) all credit goes to YouTuber @night stratus
(seriously cannot thank you enough, you're awesome!
)
EQ from "https://youtu.be/TjucHIrWMDU?si=YF9USOlujbKvIwTR"
I am simply importing the EQ now that it's super easy to do, as of the most recent update (47.0.0)
Feel free to give it a try and check out GadgetryTech on YouTube
Since the Nova Pro Wireless launched, there has been discussion on ear comfort thanks to the ANC microphones inside. Now that Wicked Cushions has released multiple pad upgrade options for the Nova Pro Wireless, it's time to see how they stack up in every measurable way against the stock pads! UPDATE - The 5300 Hz setting in Sonar for the Freez...
Whooah whoah whoah when did the Import link start happening? haha
I've been making something pretty crazy that may hook into that
Is there a way to interface with the deeplink import/export function?
Omg so GG 47 has a share button now. This is amazing. I've been asking SS for this function for almost 6 months now lol
Yessss
You could try adjusting the volume boost setting so that your volume levels are more consistent across channels?
🤷♂️
Know about that and that's not the issue my guy, would say that here is most likely where I change first.. But what I meant was that config itself is low compared to what I've used before it. But it has a very nice sound image for me..
yea but why limited only to the mode "Game"?
There are good movie/Netflix settings that run with me via Media and "Game" only the games
I find it very annoying at the moment and hope that it will be improved later.
This has probably already been requested in the feature-requests channel. But I feel like it would make more sense for all of the virtual sonar channels to have just one master library that all of the profiles get saved to. That way I can easily use a config I made or imported in my "game" channel, over in my "media" or "Aux" channel. Instead of having to create the same profile again, that's already saved in another channel
🤷♂️
Hi guys, Can I ask you about your microphone configurations? @here
Did you have a more specific question in mind?
These are the settings I use for my Chat & Mic channels in Sonar.
I hope that helps 🎤 
as a music producer I'm used to using completely flat eq open back monitors and wanted to atleast have a somewhat accurate sound response with my arctis 7's, to bassheads it will sound thin or small so you may not like it but its a perfectly flat freq response representation. https://www.steelseries.com/deeplink/gg/sonar/config/v1/import?url=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21tdW5pdHktY29uZmlncy5zdGVlbHNlcmllc2Nkbi5jb20vdjEvNjE1NzQwYzUtNWVlZS00OWI0LTkzNGQtZGUzNDNhNzYxZGQ1
I might try it, I switched to beyerdynamic headphones a few months ago, it's been hard trying to find a good EQ on Arctis 7+ after using those for awhile.. I miss my wireless at times lol
As for bass, they should be able to bump it a bit using the bass slider depending on how it was created..
Your message was most likely ignored because it's in the wrong channel.. Try reposting in #1047622297382567936 🙂
Pinging here is probably a bad idea in a public Discord just FYI..
Might be worth posting in #1070392859125104660 🙂
Doesn't work thankfully :)
Hey, give me plz sonar equalizer for snowrunner game
man the share button is gonna make it so much easier to try configs on the fly
I use senny HD600's myself so the arctis 7's are a massive step down, hard to eq them nice and clean
.
so for the bass boosted eq, i noticed the smart volume is much more prevalent which is nice, it doesnt get too overwhelmingly loud
Any chance you can share this? so it will automatically input these values? I want it for csgo
"Hello! I'm looking for EQ settings for the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless that prioritize immersion in games. I'm not interested in competitive settings to hear footsteps.

thank u
I decided to dedicate the morning to testing the sonar, as I didn't realize that the APO Equalizer (which I have been using for some time) was conflicting with the Sonar. Was that bad? No. Overall I'm loving the Sonar + APO combo but it's a bit strange using two equalizers. That's why I decided to disable APO and work only with Sonar to try to get the best out of the program. I worked with 3 games, so here are the results with the presets already defined:
Escape From Tarkov:
https://www.steelseries.com/deeplink/gg/sonar/config/v1/import?url=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21tdW5pdHktY29uZmlncy5zdGVlbHNlcmllc2Nkbi5jb20vdjEvMmM4MzEzZmItNjJiNy00ZGFlLTgzZDItZDc5Yjg2OGRlYTY2
Unfortunately, the biggest limitation is the game itself, as many people complain about the bad sound and no difference between the lower or upper floor.
The environmental sounds are ridiculous and quite loud. The best way to use this preset is with the game's COMTAC 4 headset. Other than that, good luck, because if there is a lot of wind or rain, your steps will be completely obscured.
I particularly liked the result of this preset, but I still need to work better on the silent step frequencies. It seems that they are not good, but I believe it is at some medium or high frequency. (WIP).
For this one, I used the preset that comes with Sonar as a base, but I made some modifications. The recommendation is to leave the game volume at 40~50 with the "Headphone Bass Boost" sound type. The only point is that the noise of the shots when you shoot is slightly loud, so feel free to reduce the sound of the DAC if you feel necessary.

Dark and darker eq settings for arena 9?
Does anyone have a overall good EQ setting that priortizes a little more bass. I'm trying to find a sweet spot for gaming, movies, and music. Any help would be appreciated. 
This is what I currently have. It's pretty good I just want a little more bass and ability to hear footsteps a tad better
Hello, does anyone happen to have a overwatch 2 preset ? I don't know but the pre-made SteelSeries one doesn't feel right.
just use the hell let loose preset
Anyone have a Dark and Darker config to share? Or advice? The footsteps/directional are goofyu af in that game and seem to change with every hotfix
Been asking for about a week and havent gotten anything
Have you checked out Jarminx settings in the pinned messages? I feel like it's a good overall config
does anyone have a good valorant config. thanks
do you have spacial audio on?
for siege
Off.
ok thank you, is it usually off for most games?
i just bought the arctis nova pros today
theres a massive improvement in my gameplay
both of these kills were solely on audio cueues
i will say i think gunshots are a tad bit too loud but im brand new at this and idk how to edit it myself
Nice play!!!
In all games I don't use spatial audio. In the case of your video, which Preset are you using?
i was using your latest siege one
Happy to hear that. 😍
Are you finding the shots loud?
yea
i notice i can hear shots really clearly when im pretty far away
i can try and get an example if you would like
what headsets are you guys using? i got the arctis 9s and i cant seem to get sonar to work
Dude, I need to create a video tutorial showing what I use. I'm using an audio limiter because I have the same perception as you when using my presets. They are good, but some sounds are too loud.
arctis nova pro wireless
i picked them up today
whats an audio limited
limiter
It's an audio plug-in that I install on my computer in conjunction with the APO Equalizer. In this case, it reduces the sounds in terms of compression but keeps them well defined. It's as if you turned down the volume, but without losing the volume.
I'll try to create a tutorial for this. I believe it is the best way.
awesome
In all games, the limiter is enabled and all presets adapt very well.
i looked at the clip above and if you were to only have the sonar equalizer, at 10 seconds i could hear mozzies gun in basement firing next to me
but footsteps are amazing
The best for me is Warzone. Everything is very noticeable.
https://equalizerapo.com/ is it this?
For Sonar to become perfect, in my opinion, all it needs is a standard limiter/compressor. Just increasing the gain of something is not interesting.
Yes
http://www.yohng.com/software/w1limit.html
Limiter plug-in.
i think i installed it but i cant hear anything now
You should install only on "Headset - Arctis Nova Pro"
so none of the sonar stuff?
Just there. Magic happens in it.
Download the plug-in, leave it in the VST Plug-in folder. The format is in ".dll"
Click in EDITOR.EXE
After this, remove PREAMPLIFICATION
Perfect, check "APLLY AUTO"
Release: 5ms
Ceiling: test. This is magic
Let me see how APO turned out. must only have the plugin active. Sonar is active too, right?
its all at -30
so i noticed when i switch to sonar game
the audio just cuts out
nvm
i might need to restart siege
Your Windows sound setting is set to Gaming, right?
Print W1 limiter
Are you finding the sound VERY QUIET or is it almost muted??
Try a game with BOT. Tell me what you think of the sounds.
ok will do
It gives a slight compression to the sound. This is basically the free version of Waves L1.
do you use APO for anything else?
Yes
ohhh i meant like any other plugins
I tested several plugins, this was the best one. Rough Rider 3 is also good, but I feel this one is fuller.
please help me
Anyone have a good overall EQ for Music,Movies,Youtube etc?
@agile ravine I created a tutorial in text format so that we can use Sonar in conjunction with an Equalizer APO Plugin. If it is not within the channel rules, I will remove it, is that ok?
Basically it's a tutorial that helps limit loud sounds and helps our ears to better perceive footsteps.
It's just a text document where I summarized the tutorial for using the two programs together as much as possible.
Thanks for the tutorial mate. Do you know why everytime i open the editor, i get this message (1st) but when i click yes I have the heaphones checked?
what's your headset?
The Arctis Nova 1
oh, this is normal if you have Steelseries - Gaming as default
Oh, so do I need to change anything or I can just leave it as it is?
You can leave it as it is. Just make the changes and make sure they are working
Yeah, everything is working fine. Using one of your "older" R6 configs and it's better with the Equalizer and the plugin
Good to know. Now it's time to enjoy and increase your rank haha
which one?
This one @royal zodiac
i find the sounds ingame very muffled
with that one on
wait i forgot the smart volume
i like the latest one more besides the bullets being super loud
and explosions
idk how to turn those ones down
the footsteps on the latest one are really good
the one you sent me feels really crunchy idk why
@snow brook my guy, the limiter is like heaven to my ears lol. I have a fiio K7 amp/dac and a sennhesier hd 660s. And I've always had to play siege and any game at like 10% volume because it is just so loud. But with the limited I can hear everything and with the volume all the way up. Thank you.
What a good thing to read!! Good to know the limiter works well for your headset!
explosions are still a bit loud
gunshots are much better
& sound crisp too
Try asking in #1047622297382567936 🙂
ok, I'll test some things later.
anyone have issues with the mic for the arctis 7+? any fixes or recommended settings for that?
I'll try it tomorrow and give some feedback
Ok, thanks
@royal zodiac @round patio , I left the W1 Limiter release at 25.5. Apparently it works better this way. I believe slightly higher values would also work, but I need to test. I will check with 50ms
What is the difference between the different ms
Taking a look at some forums and videos, Release is the time that that sound will remain active until it returns to its normal peak. It's like a compass... imagine you say "one, two, three" in exactly 3 seconds. With a high release, you would take 6 seconds, and with a low release you would take 1 second. It was the way I found to exemplify this LOL.
so it limits the sound db for a selected amount of time?
Basically this. The attack is something like the time it takes to reach the peak, while the release is the time it takes to return to the starting point.
Your design has more to do with the Q than with the time it takes for the sound to reach the starting point, but your idea is also valid... the thinner the peak is, the less time it stays there.
so i did some testing with the W1 with your config and default EQ settings and i noticed something really strange
when i had the W1 on, i couldnt tell which direction sounds were
i could hear them louder but i couldnt tell from where
heres a 15 second clip of someone coming behind me and someone on the stairs
i could hear him on my left, but more of less not by the door behind me at the end
when i turned W1 on
but when i turned it off, i knew exactly where they were
Back to the planning table then haha
Only in R6, right?
yes
im currently using default everything no W1 and its like crystal clear where people are
its probs because these headphones are so good
Can't seem to import that, i click on the link, it opens my GG but it doesn't import anything
@snow brook I'm guessing you have "stereo" in channel config in APO?
Yes
I will import again
Maybe it's a problem with my GG. the link opens but it doesn't take me to the equalizer. It just stays in the volume section
I noticed that since I installed the equalizer, every config I use sounds the same. This is the case for default, your R6 v4, the one you sent yesterday, Jarminx's config for overall, etc.
Don't know why @snow brook
In the game you need to select the correct audio output, which in this case is Steelseries - Gaming. And make sure they are all selected in Sonar:
Via moments?
I didn't change any settings in Sonar or in-game. I was just messing with the configs and saw that there's no sound change with any. This just happened after the Equalizer
I will unnistal the APO and give an update

I uninstalled APO, checked different configs and I still don't hear a difference between any configs. I can have this one and it's the same as any other. No idea why
Wow.. Man, I recommend that you make a backup of the current presets and reinstall the Arctis drivers and also the Sonar. This never happened to me, and look, I messed with several plug-ins within APO.
Any NewWorld configs?
Any Hunt Showdown configs? There is already one from steelseries itself, but would like to try something else or at least compare. And thanks to all the people who share their configs here. it's really fun to try them out. 👍
Dark and darker EQ?
Is anyone able to let me know the exact engine EQ values for the new Apex & FPS console presets (pics attached)? Thanks in advance!
does volume boost and smart volume have to be on, and whats the spatial audio configurations?
hello any Dayz foodstep config?
Just import the Preset from the link and you will have all the settings, but answering previously, I don't use spatial audio. In the game the setting is Night Mode and volume at 100
Did all of that and it kinda works rn. The only difference is that if I change config, i have to restart whatever is using sound (Youtube, spotify, R6, etc) so the config starts working. Before all I had to do was just pick a different config and it changed instantly.
need csgo2 config anyone have really good one???
not a sound engineer by any means, but i just uped the sound for footsteps and lowered the bass so i wouldn't be deafened by shots (overwatch 2) https://www.steelseries.com/deeplink/gg/sonar/config/v1/import?url=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21tdW5pdHktY29uZmlncy5zdGVlbHNlcmllc2Nkbi5jb20vdjEvNTkzNzQ5ZWUtYzNjZS00NjQwLWJjNzMtNDAyMmVlNmI2NjBl
Hey mate, question? Did the APO ever just stop working for you? It worked great for like 3 days, now I can't even un-install and re-install it to get it to work.. Just blip up on screen and disappear 😦 Do you know a fix for this issue? Cheers
@proud condor Hello. My APP has not had any problems since I installed it. Try force uninstalling.
And it's the physical HS you tab in as an install and not the Virtual Sonar one's yeah
You must install APO only in the "HEADSET" driver. If you install it in SONAR GAMING it will cause conflict.
That's done, and in device i'm guessin I choose Sonar G and stereo and it should be set
In APO? Headset - Arctis Nova Pro
@round veldt can you share pinned config with deeplink ?
Bump
is this better than the one already in sonar?
In my opinion, yes.
anyone have a config for Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodhunt?
Shoot me a DM linking your question so I don't forget, I'm working and will probably forget this reply

Need a Valorant eq, anyone got a nice bass filled one?
any one can give CS2 sonar settings
need WZ2 settings pls 🙂
I need some help configuring everything to every game I want to hear footsteps when I'm playing Battle Royale games and shooters also and I want to start paying attention
Anyone have a good config for Dark and Darker?
Anyone config for Demonologist?
I need this too!!!
You are doing God's work 
Have you tested? 😄
If u find a good setup let me know it bro
I found that the gunshots, and sounds (like generators and freezer on certain maps) were too loud, so I used the Eq Apo but it doesn't seem to do anything, I downloaded it on my Arctis, and not the sonar, did you ever have that issue or know a fix?
Give me more information. How is your APO screen? Did you just use the Plugin? Anything, call me privately.
I can’t call cause I am not home but I can message you
Call = talk to me privately.
xD
oh okay
Any WZ 2.0 EQ settings? 😮
i mean for youtube, films, music (pop, rap, somtimes classical), sometimes geams
(for everything, with good bass)
what is the best sonar settings for r6 with steelseries arctis pro wireless
or the headset doesnt matter
like my question is do all headset hear the same thing in sonar like can a 10 dollar headset hear the same thing with the same settings compared to a more expensive one
I love this, but everyone's ears are different and it's always a personal preference. I'd say try playing with it until you're satisfied because taking someone else's is often not immediately the right one.
uh...deeplink please?
Mine in pinned 🙂
Dark and Darker config, anyone out there?
Share your preset bro 😄
Just click "share".
I'm honestly fixing to copy all the shit down
don't xd
I did it
havent tried it yet
its got good bass like I wanted
little muffled in some areas though
I've been using Jarminx EQ and like it so far
it's my default
makes my HD560S less boring
haven't played valorant in a while but got to diamond without spacial
I think it ruins the sound tbh
only good for movies, series etc
(i've not tried spacial audio from sonar tho)
yeah no I'm talking about sonar
never tried it but still prefer it only for movies, series etc
+1 on your EQ love to use it with my HD560S makes them less boring
There's a spatial audio version on the pinned post, it still remains as general EQ though and not one built for footsteps
yeah, the only issue ive had is that is that the audio is very low, but these settings almost completely nullify ambient noise
Because in Tarkov the audio volume option is worse if you have it on max. When you increase the volume above 60/70 it mostly increases ambient noises such as looting sounds, wind, etc. With the volume at 60 or 70 in game you hear footsteps just as you would at 100 but with a less overwhelming amount of noises
The volume is a bit low but its kind of like a pseudo effect because of the paranoia aspect of tarkov, but the second anyone makes any noise i hear it. For instance, last night i was on reserve while it was raining. I was running outside and whilst running i heard a footstep from about 30 meters away in the rain.
I just got my nova pro wireless today. I have fixed eq preset n stuff but is there anyway to apply a preset to the headset to use for bluetooth?
Ceiling in -30 or -6?
I didn't know that existed 💀
i cant find the video for the mw2 eq config anyone able to link it to me
anyone have r6 cfg?
Use the search function :)
Need an eq tuned for footsteps
i want some community profiles
That's what you can search for :)
This is a community R6 Config that I found, even if you found 2.. Those are two community configs which is what I believe you are looking for..? #config-discussion message
how i can ccopy that?
im new using sonar
do you use spatial audio?
No.
its the same config?
??
Arctis Nova Pro
wait why dont use spatial audio?
Idk
so this is good for siege?
for me yes. I use it in conjunction with an audio limiter. The tutorial is on this channel.
what channel?
here
can i hear foot steps good because i used the siege preset and everything was way too loud
i couldnt hear anything
whats do i put here?
Ah.. you use Engine.. I haven't used it in a while.
should i not use it
i just want the best setting for my headset to hear all the important sounds in siege
can u help me?
Try this.
should i use that with ur sonar settings too?
why dont you use spatial audio?
Either you use Engine, or use Sonar. Impossible to use both. I don't like spatial audio.
i just imported this
will i be able to hear footsteps really loud and gunshots and explosions not so much?
Ideally, you should test it. But for me it's great.
how to i make my footsteps quieter and the enemies footsteps louder
and how do i turn down gun shots and explosions
@snow brook
Dude, you need to test it. What I do is a base. Unfortunately, I can't perform miracles to make everything the best it can be. Sorry to be rude, but test the preset.
what does that mean
sorry, i don't really know anything about this stuff tbh
W1 limiter.
Dont know what that is either. Im super knew to any of this
aside from the very very basics like bass
Go into the game and give it a go with the new settings. Make sure you only use either the engine or Sonar. Do not use both.
As for Spatial Audio, there's a way to move the speakers in the spatial audio settings. I don't play R6 so I can't help too much. Only thing I can say is to mess with it.. For my Destiny 2 footsteps config, I moved the side speakers slightly behind me and the forward surround left and right a little more down just above the sides. I also pulled the distance very close to me which enhanced the overall surround and actually made the footsteps more defined. I could hear them long before it was too late.
Maybe @snow brook wouldn't mind giving it a go, but a lot of people don't like spatial audio. I also find it hard to adjust, but I do like the spatial audio from my general config in pinned. Or did when I still used my SteelSeries headset..
I'll try that out, but the config i have is for Tarkov.
Tarkov's audio is already a bit busted, so idk if making the distance closer would be better maybe just more confusing
this preset work fine without any audio limiter?
I've already used it, but it's a very sensitive function. In an old Warzone 2 update, for example, it was almost a hack. Currently FOR ME it's horrible. I don't want to waste so much time on something that I can't use well. I'm simply enjoying the good results I have using the Sonar + APO combo.
Maybe
Any sound configs for Asseto Corsa Competizione?
Hello guys, i just recently bought artic nova 7x im using it on PC and im very dissapointing with it right now.. I need universal eq i dont want to change it every game. i need clearness in overall sound and some bass in gunshots and explosions.. is it possible to configure it like that ? maybe someone could share good settings..? or maybe is it a way to improve it?
is there any REALLY DEEP BASS configs for music? my fav part abt music is well, the bass but the default deep bass config imo doesnt really increase it too much
@vocal condor & @scenic moth, check my pinned post just before the last pinned..
how do i set it to 3.62 khz? it just sets it to 20 hz if i type it in and its only odd numbers for 3.6_
never mind
There's a shareable link that's supposed to automatically put it in your configurations.. But for the khz, you'll just have to drag the band dot.. Unfortunately, doesn't set well when switching from Hz to kHz
i want it in media but it keeps placing it in gaming, so thats why im making it normally
ah yeah, they didn't make a share for the other inputs.. Dunno why
You can get it close by dragging left/right
yeah, just as long as it's close it should be fine
Not really.. So 17.87 can be almost anywhere in the 17 range
Just so long as it's close to it
You can use the sliders at the bottom of the bands to tweak it out, that's how I set it up.. So if you need more oomph in the bass area, you can push the slider a little more to the right and shouldn't give you a bit of a bass bump 🙂
:D
also does it matter if i set the gain to 12 db? bc my headphones are rly quiet and thats one of the reasons i use sonar in general
Everything is tweakable.. Volume bump worked on my Arctis 7+ when I used them, sliders and such are meant to tweak to your liking
ah ok
wasnt sure
sounds goog
(reference song is shots by lil tecca) these settings sound pretty fire
anyone got good music presets
Nice bass filled valorant config that doesn’t sound underwater?
I tested a little yesterday, I was able to differentiate the steps a little, but I'll test a little more today better
thanks

Any new updates for Season 6 for audio? I'm still using old configs @snow brook
Thank you! 🐐🫡
There have been some changes to the game's audio apparently. I made some adjustments, but I need to test. Maybe tomorrow, but what I can see is that the sound of the speakers is a little low and the sound of the footsteps only goes to a maximum distance that has been greatly reduced (with the current Preset).
hey bois
i need a media config
for my arctis pro
i want a thicc bass and slightly lower vocal and instremental clearer
Pinned
I have been using the new configuration files. It does sound good but sometimes steps are very low. I’m also on bass boost
Yes, unfortunately that is it. I'll try to do something, but I can't guarantee it will work. Maybe I'll use the preset that exists in Sonar and make some modifications.
Will it be best to “up” the colors balls footsteps in sonar? Im not the best at optimizing. Any tips will be helpful
It depends largely. Anything above 8khz generates details (glass, high-pitched sounds). Sounds from 90 to 135hz are related to footsteps. Between 200 and 500hz are details that sustain the bass and above that up to around 4khz are the mids. They make a lot of difference, but they must be adjusted correctly or all work can be compromised.
I’m gonna try to adjust these and see if I can get optimal audio. Thanks for that info
Hi,does anybody have a good config for cs2?
@ornate kite
which game is this for

Wow that sucks, thanks anyway. Your older one is holding up atm just about
This is the update profile? @snow brook
Yes
“W” 🙏🏽 you on bass boost or PC in COD audio setting?
Try both

Yes. Sonar+APO
What is sonar+APO?
Equalizer APO.
Is that a separate software you have to download?
Yes.
I just seen a tutorial on youtube. lol It looks complicated and I wouldn't know what to adjust lol
There is a tutorial here. Search in the search bar.
This the one you talking about @snow brook

Thanks bro but i'm playing Valorant, CS2. Beside game, i need movie eQ.
I only work with Presets for games.. And in this case, they are just the ones I play the most. Fortnite I created something a long time ago but it wasn't pleasant. I have plans for Valorant in the future, but I don't know when.

any music EQ?
Does anyone has a equalizer setting for my arctis pro wireless, for Warzone 2? I'm playing on the PS5
I made it based on the sound of some streamers. If anyone has early access, please use that.
Any eq's to match artic 5's frequencies?
Anyone have a good Final Fantasy XV config for Sonar?
Keep in mind this Mic EQ works for your voice but will not work for many others as the 'source sound' is not the same for everyone. Posted an explanation of this on here: #config-discussion message
Depends on what you're looking for, I have a pinned post that's a general EQ for all 🙂
There's been a few W2 posts lately with EQ settings.. Might either scroll up a bit or use the search function on Discord. Might get a faster result 😉
Check pinned 😉
Nova should be slightly better, but most Sonar configs work pretty good for other SteelSeries headsets as I've noticed on here
Check the last pinned message, I did a Netflix Movie config way back in Sonar early beta.. May still hold up now, worth a try..?
I was just looking for eq settings that would closely match the sound and mic of the artic 5's
I was wondering if anyone had a good config for Counter-Strike 2. The sound engine is different than it was in CS:GO, so I am unsure if the "CS:GO by FaZe Twistzz" one is still a good choice...
I've tried it before, but I didn't like it very much.
Amazing! This works perfect! I’m using Home theater. Do you recommend a different in game audio setting.
Are you using it in the beta? Try other sound modes, but let us know what you think with Home Theater.
Yeah, I’m using it in beta. I will give it a shot @snow brook
Any EQ config you find for a mic isn't gonna work good for you since nobody can predict what your voice sounds like: #config-discussion message
My general EQ has been liked by quite a few, would give it a try if you'd like. Tweak to your liking with the sliders 🙂
anyone got a good media mixer for all types of music
how do you disable the engine?
Just keep the sonar enabled.

Thanks! Giving it a try now :)
I look forward to your feedback.
that MW2 config... can honestly say its perfect!
Did you use it in MWII or MWIII?
Warzone 2
MW 3 cant hear no type of footsteps... unless super still in a corner camping, lol
Yes, I'm also using it in Warzone 2. It's very good.
have you try Spatial Audio with it?
I love the difference it makes! Only thing I’m having a rough time is hearing footsteps above vs below with this config. Any suggestions?
I think I have the mw2 one you made atm for warzone 2. Should I try the mw3 new one?
I actually made this preset for MW3, but strangely it worked in Warzone. Try and tell us your results.
Is this preset only for use with the sonar? Or do you need another program to use it together?
Nitro they do for 2 days
I play R6 competitively (God help me) and recently picked up the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless after my Corsair Virtuosos's battery finally gave out after 2 years. I'm looking for the "best" EQ or at least a baseline I could start with to make my own. With roughly 30 mins on each preset as well as switching back and forth do any R6 players here suggest one R6 EQ over the other, or have an EQ they feel is better? So far I like the "Rainbow Six Siege by Ubisoft" preset a bit more than the "Rainbow Six Siege" preset, audio from further away seems a bit more distinct. Any help is appreciated.
Sorry for off topic but are you going to the Atlanta major? 😅
No but I will possibly be going to going to Sao Paulo with a few friends and my tm8s for the SI
Oh nice, see you there maybe then
Hopefully, just trying to get everyone on board lol
🤞
Brazil. Nice 😄
Anyone have a good Need For Speed Unbound config for Sonar?

anyone got phasmophobia configs ?
Check pinned
Yeah, unity error
I'm currently dealing with some games for creating presets:
-Warzone 2
-Rainbow Six
-Escape From Tarkov
Probably the next game I will try to create something will be Fortnite.
Some information:
-There is no ETA. I'll simply share when I create something decent for the game.
-The preset will be created ONLY for Sonar. I have no intention of creating for Engine. At least not now.
-The preset will be created in two ways: using only Sonar and using Sonar + Equalizer APO for audio limiting (reducing the peaks of loud/harmful sounds);
@agile ravine What do you think of the preset for MW3/Warzone?
anyone have a good over all sound EQ for Arctis 9x?
would this work with the nova 1
well i imported and was extremely quiet
Pinned, has been said to work with just about all the headsets 😉
You can check out GadgetryTech on Youtube and search your headset.. I'm using one he did for overall good setting on my AUX which is my browser, youtube and vlc ( Nova Pro Wireless ) you can always test that one and see if it's any good for you? https://www.steelseries.com/deeplink/gg/sonar/config/v1/import?url=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21tdW5pdHktY29uZmlncy5zdGVlbHNlcmllc2Nkbi5jb20vdjEvMTM2NjI1ZTUtMjZmMC00NGJiLTkxODUtNzFiNDc5YTdlOTNk
I didn't use it much tbh but I did reach level 20 in the beta with it. Didn't use any other preset but it seems good to me :)

anyone got a valorant config?
the CS2 EQ preset by Twistzz in the sonar sounds good
About the Fortnite EQ (Sonar) that I'm developing: The sound of gunshots is low and audible. The sound of footsteps is noticeable, but still needs adjustment.
Weird, I am not able to open these presets. The website opens saying it is loading in but nothing shows up in my presets or changes. Guidance?
try now
No, unfortunately.
Thank you
The spacial above/below is much better on the new one. A little more deep bass than I’m used to. I may have to tune slightly. I’m a noob so I’m not sure yet though!
Was it better to identify the steps for you? Are the gunshots loud?
The steps were amazing!
The gunshots were a little deep/amplified for my liking.
I sometimes got lost in the noise during a fight
But spacial was perfect
I wonder if there’s a way I can bump without losing the effectiveness of the steps
I believe that in this case of weapons it is necessary to reduce the bass (points 2 and 4) and reduce the penultimate point.
So if I’m looking at the sonar app I’d lower the db on the 2nd and 4th points by a few db?
I haven’t don’t much customization with it so I’m not quite sure
exactly
I’ll try it out and see if it muffles the gunshots a little more. Thanks for the help
New.
for valorant?
General use.But I need a better setting. I want clearer and more punchy bass. Can you help with me ?
no
Have you tried mine in the pinned posts?
are these good for arctic nova pro wireless

No. I'll look and try it right away.

Anyone using EQ with planar iems ?
Hey everyone!
I am new to the Steelseries family. Just brought home a pair of the Nova Pro Wireless for PC/Xbox. I cannot for the life of me tune the custom EQ for Cyberpunk 2077 on the Series X using the DAC base station. I see Sonar has a preset for it, however, I can't use it since I am playing on the Xbox. If anyone has any advice, I would be extremely grateful! 🙂
anyone got config for warthunder ? if so pls respond
If you make sure your transmitter/headset is updated then you can use presets on the DAC directly
Hey Lennart! Thank you for the reply. I believe I have my transmitter/headset updated. I do see a handful of available presets on the transmitter itself, just not one for Cyberpunk 2077. I only have access to 18 out of the list I am showing in the dropdown box on Sonar. Since it doesn't appear to be an option right now, I was hoping to find a config for that specific game, that way I could manually input the values on the receiver.
The on device EQ doesn't include a preset specifically for Cyberpunk but there are these included:
Flat
Bass Boost
Focus
Smiley
Apex Legends
Baldur's Gate 3
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (COD Modern Warfare II)
COD Warzone 2
Destiny 2
Diablo IV
Fortnite
FPS footsteps
GTA V
Minecraft
Overwatch 2
Player Unknown Battlegrounds
Rainbow Six Siege
Rocket League```
I really hope someone shares a preset for Call of Duty
2 because we are in bad shape with the current one
Try this one: #config-discussion message
It's for MW3 but might help in MW2
Ok I'll try it Thanks👍

Ok thx M8. I will try tomorrow n let u know.
can you share with link
your setup for Warzone + eq APO What should I set in the APO ? Also thank you for trying to help community to improve such a shitty MW sounds ..... Also one more question..do we have to turn the loudnes equalization ON in windows or just do something in the APO ? & actually one more queastion, do you have to turn Spatial audio on in SONAR ? and if yes, then what other setting ( performance, distance) thanks dude 💕
Loudness OFF
Spatial OFF.
dude thank you so much...so I should download W1 limiter and not APO ?
w1 is a plugin I use within APO.
ah ok...so it runs simultaniously ? Also what setting in APO ?
Just the plugin in the apo and nothing else.
will give it a try..cheers dude...can;t wait to test...
it's definitely better, but any tricks to lower the shooting noise..it's way too loud... 😦
volume in game 50~60
cheers and ingame audio eg home theatre, headphones bass bosted ?
bass boost
anybody got a config for apex legends?
Use the search function :)
But one of them is this: #config-discussion message
Should I use this app together with Sonar?
May I ask what it is that you did to tune that configuration the way you did. I think you mentioned that this configuration works best for a headset and in my situation I’m using a sound bar through optical digital. It helped boost some voices that always sounded low for some reason, but I’d like to refine it a bit and I’m curious to know if you have a tutorial or what it is you used to tune each frequency
I recently bought this card and installed it on my motherboard SPDIF RCA/Optical Out Back Plate... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LWNKIKN?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
This is the sound bar I got
There is a tutorial here. You need to follow it step by step for it to work perfectly.
Honestly, I pull each slider all the way up and all the way down depending on the band and then tweak it out to what sounds best. There's a voice range, kinda mid to mid-high range.. I'm not sure if I'm explaining that correctly, my ears just hear specific frequencies..
I dont find it. Can u pls pin it to me?
the problem with yours for me is I like good base and this doesn't really have that but over all this is really good.
Have you used the sliders on my config? It's made to use the sliders to tweak out the high's, mid's, and low's.. Yank them lows up a bit, it can kick the bass pretty hard 😉
Im not really sure how to use the sliders and how they work so ima just stick what i got now and make do.
Under the bands there's 3 sliders for low, mid, and high.. You slide it right, it pulls the overall lows up.. You slide it left, it pulls the overall lows down.. You can do this with any config, a lot of times it's the best way to tweak it out without messing with the frequency bands
can you show me a example, im more of a visual learner in these type of things.
It's gone :)
@agile ravine ^^ sigh
You got that right :)
Anyone having the issue of you Mic being off in MW2 but, it shows on the screen as if you talking? Gone thru my in-game settings a bunch and everything seems right. Test the mic in-game and all good. Any help would be appreciated
Do you have an anlog/3.5mm connection for your headset?
Anybody got a Deep Rock Galactic config to share?
@night stratus Yes, it’s wired
yes
Hi! Anyone have a good sonar config for Arctis 7+'s? Looking for all-rounder, so good for music but also for FPS games 🙂
Do I turn on spatial audio?
Off
Spatial audio off aswell for this one?
Yes
thank you
yall can someone give me the best settings for mic I want a quiet voice and deep voice my mic ( hyperx quadcast )
so if you don't have spatial on...how do you hear 360?
Not to sound rude, but I hear it with my ears. I can hear the footsteps well. I also activate the option to see the sound effects, although I'm barely guided by it as the sound is too good for me.
it sounds so much diff w/o using spatial.
Check pinned
Spatial audio enhances what is already built into the headphones, which is the sound stage. If a headphone has a wide sound stage, you'll get the surround to some extent. The SteelSeries headsets already has that built into the headset, so you'll hear some of it without spatial audio active. GG uses software to enhance the sound stage to maximize the way you hear the audio in surround.
So regardless with spatial on or not, you'll still get some degree of 360 surround 🙂
I use the beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro as my main, it is not a surround headphone but has a wide sound stage and I can definitely hear when someone walks up behind me or the side of me with that headphone. (Still have Arctis 7+ on the side)
Gotcha
I mean, yes, there is surround system built into it but that spatial just makes it so much further🥳 + I noticed that it's easier on the ear...but that's probably just me. Imma try it without it, tho, for some games
#config-discussion does anyone have a good valorant config ? better then faze baby
Spatial settings have drastically changed since Sonar Beta, when I used my headset as my main, I was able to tweak out my profiles in spatial and it sounded much better. But not everyone likes what spatial does, because it does add a lot more in the mid range than I feel it should which can be a challenge to get things to sound just right with it turned on..
hey im new have one of you setting for halo infinite ?
anyone have a really good config for mw2 not wz ik its same game same audio and shit, but i swear on my mother, the footsteps in wz and mw2 mp are different
Does anyone have a Setting for Warhammer 40000: Darktide?
I agree with that
but I think that comes when you set the distance to hear further away. You need teammates to be quiet for most of the match...unfortunately...otherwise their talking fucks w/ the hearing
Who's got a nice Alan Wake 2 config?

is there a list of config shares anywhere or its a nice to have in the future where the community can share it in a list, and its easyer to find somethink? or do i dont found the list yet?
for exampel in a anno 18900 discord they have a stomp list where the community can share them and all can search for the desired one
Easiest way on here is Discord search feature, sort by channel

The search field in Discord
It's not a server feature, it's a Discord feature :)
You can read about it here: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000468588-Using-Search
Search Saves The Day
What's that mysterious gray box with a magnifying glass so cryptically labeled "Search" you say? It could only be one thing- the search bar!
Alright, silliness aside, Discord's...
you mean the search bar right upper corner?
that is not what i am asking
i mean can this discoird server setup a channel where the community can save sharelinks in a list with a searchbar in the middle like i postete above with the screenshot or existing a channel where i can do this here or not?
Ah okay. You can put it in #1070392859125104660
as a suggestion
I can't take any credit there, I don't work for them :)
You're welcome
is this not a officialy steel series gg discord?
anybody know where i can find more share links because here noone have a hitman sharelink?
This is the official SteelSeries Discord server, yes?
I would suggest to make your own :)
Maybe reddit?
You could try my general EQ config that's pinned.. Might be good, maybe worth a try 🙂

Does anybody have a nice setting for the microphone to sound as good as possible?
Thanks btw i think they are great speakers for every setup
yeah they've been a lot of fun. I have some high end speakers but the rgb and ease of use still makes them pretty compelling
I like the simultaneous BT integration as well
anyone has a good setup for The finals?
It's all on the same pin, down at the bottom
Anyone has a good setup for rainbow six siege, with a not so high quality headphone

I must say the new MW III sound setup from Sonar is pretty damn good for MW II...I can finally hear footsteps in like 20m radius ... good job guys...
i just switched my settings over to that. im going to test it out
Anyone got any recommended EQ setups for music and streaming respectively?
ye dude, let me know..it works for me..but I use it in combination with APO equalizer and using one of the guys setting..if you filter all my messages in this chat you'll find it as a full guide ✅
I shouldn;t be helping you 😄 as now if I see you in the game we will have equal conditions to hear each other..damn 😄 😄
Pinned post
So I'm using a hypercast s microphone but using steelseries software to mix in, any suggested setting sto make it sound clearer?
is that from the default setting withing sonar for warzone2?
Does anyone has a solid sonar setting for iRacing? I just got the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, had the acrtis 7p prior and loved it. I just can NOT get the sound dialed in with the new headset as the prior setting I was using does not sound right. It almost sounds like I’m in a hallway at times and the mids seem impossible to get right, but I am definitely no sound expert so I’m sure I am not adjusting the correct things. I have tried all of the preloaded presets with no luck. Thanks in advance!
just bought the wireless nova provs. Looking for good sonar mic settings. lmk
Try the presets and go from there. Mic settings are a very personal thing, depends a lot on your voice :)

@round veldt i tried yours out for music, but to much static when above 60% volume bc of the grain, can you try mine out and lmk what you think https://www.steelseries.com/deeplink/gg/sonar/config/v1/import?url=aHR0cHM6Ly9jb21tdW5pdHktY29uZmlncy5zdGVlbHNlcmllc2Nkbi5jb20vdjEvYzM5Yjg4ZmEtZTgwYS00ODNiLWIwYzAtODk5MjJjZWJiZmEw
i have the arctis pros
Have you tried tweaking out the gain settings or any settings for that matter.. I also don't use the Steelseries headset anymore, my ears are trained differently than when I created configs 😉
i was just lookin to see if anyone had anything better for just music, i was messing with the gain and some of the upper mids but couldnt get it to compare good enough to what i have already unfortunately lol, i meaan what i have now sounds great, but bass gets alittle muddy when everythings at 100%
my headset is nearly 4-5 years old so it could be somthing with headset lol
Try pulling the bass slider down to match the highest peak on the treble side.. And turn off Smart Volume completely.. If you get any "mud" sound you may need to drag the second node slightly to the left.. The "mud" typically is your mid-low going into low frequencies @uneven stone
..when your brain says left but your fingers type right.. 
does anyone have suggested EQ settings for discord using GG sonar? Thank you in advance #config-discussion
Someone have a nice config for music? not for a specific genre, rock, pop, a little bit of everything

Ty, saw that now, no difference in what headset you have right?
Many have used it on different headsets, most tend to say it sounds great.. A couple here and there wasn't a fan.. Only thing you can do is try, see if you like it 😉
fair enough, will try ty ^^
i just use chat broadcast
There's also the spatial audio tweak on that same post.. I found it to sound a tad better, but not everyone likes the spatial audio
Does anyone have a general EQ setting? like, an EQ that can be used for all around purposes
Ive been messing with some of the settings on my own, but i want to see if anyone has something similar to mine. Im currently using an Artic Nova7x+

ping me pls if you could*^

do we need equalizer apo as well?
I recommend using them together as it reduces ambient sound a little more.
Aight man
Which is your setup for equalizer apo? if you don’t mind to tell me of course
Only W1 Limiter plug-in.
Thx
yo, anyone have a preset for the TCM game?
hey, is there a any good config for my Arctis 7 nova?
Anyone have a CS2 Configuration file?
try using the search option, but also I would say it all depends what you going to use it for? Game, movies, music.. I have 3 different config for those basically. And games are also normally different from each other with different configs.
Can you send the link?
Music
all configs i found was about games
then you go to either Media or AUX tab and route spotify, browser to those and you have other options then the games tab
ty
also can you show me your mic config if possible?
Steelseries Arctis Nova 3 (Credit to Auto EQ)
@snow brooksorry for the ping (again), I've been playing with w1 limiter settings but I need a little help to find that sweet spot, would you mind sharing your w1 settings as well?
Well, start by using the Preset I shared for Sonar. In the game, use BINAURAL AUDIO. In W1 Limiter the settings I use are 60ms, output 1.2~1.5 and in Ceiling (right bar) it is something between -4.5 to -6db
Thanks for the quick response, I will give it a try
Honestly Tarkov sounds wayyyyy to much better with your presets
Great, thank you for your patience and help 👍
Nice config for music etc. I use it with SPATIAL AUDIO disabled. Really clear sound
@snow brooksorry for being new to W1, but essentially it boosts volume?
can i use it to boost my mic volume?
also have u tried using the LoudMax plugin instead?
I use the W1 as a compressor in Tarkov. It keeps ambient sounds low while the sound of footsteps becomes more noticeable.
ahhh ok thanks for clarification , i am looking to try and fix my mic volume, because even at 100% is low aff
Pinned is general, music, games, other
I do have to give credits to someone else though, the only thing i did was importing it into sonar!
Anyone got a good music config (preferably tuned to the Skullcandy Hesh ANC) for synthwave, metal, etc?
Hello everyone. I just recently bought Arctis Nova 7. I also own Nova Pro and my Sonar EQ (for Nova Pro) doesnt sound good with my Nova 7 and cant seem to find the sweet spot.
Can you guys please share your Sonar EQ settings so I can try it out and hoping I can find my sweet spot. TIA!

Hello! Hoping someone has a preset for FPS Games to hear footsteps on the Nova Pro Wireless? Games i play are: Destiny, Fortnite, PUBG, Valorant and MW3. I would really appreciate some help on this as im struggling with them but i know they will be amazing once tuned!

@snow brookSorry to bother but I have a question regarding APO. I installed the driver that starts with "Headset" as per the tutorial but which one should I pick here? Sonar or Headphones?
And here

What options do I pick here?
Gaming.
Does anyone have good eq-settings for warzon2 and mw3?
Hello Guys, sometimes my mic is delay to respond every time I receive incoming call. Is there any solution to this issue?
does it work for different headset or a specific one ? I have nova 7 do I need to change something ?
Best advice for any config on here is to try it and see if you like it.. Your ears aren't gonna be exact to everyone else, although configs are generally the same for most, it is not the same for all. I created mine on an Arctis 7+, but some have used for Nova and other headsets
