Hello brother! I've just tried your updated settings! And I must say wow! I was really about to bring these headsets back and damn I was searching for more setting.. I hope to hear more updates from you! Definitely deserved a subscribe! Thank you again!
The new settings in link sound more refined, but i had a harder time hearing nearby footsteps in fortnite with it. had to go back to old settings. appreciate it either way, any feedback welcme
Release one eq settings for hearing footsteps on BO4 Blackout and reducing all around noise. Right now i can hear better the shots fired from a mile away that someone running next to me. Thanks
I tried these settings on the new astro a40 2019 on black ops 4 and I can't hear any footsteps and can't never tell which direction they are coming from
Maaz Farrukh I have the same problem with the headset I got them a week ago and have tried everything watched a tone of videos to make sure I had everything set up correctly , also I am unable to update my software I tried on my computer and Also my xbox and every time it is not detecting the headset when I plug it in. I am disappointed cause I did a lot of research before buying them . Idk maybe I got a defective pair.
Ann Castro if your computer sees the head set in the volume control panel then the Astro command center will too. 99% of the issues with Astro is user error Make sure you have the mix amp in computer mode by pressing and holding the power button till it turns white
New preset is here! best for Apex legends, CoD BO 4, Pubg, and Fortnite "Best with Dolby on" Link to my updated settings May 2019 s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=00786057264930923566
The same here my friend. the link didn’t work for me. I like your FPS settings in this video. That’s why I would like to try your latest settings. Could you post pictures instead of files ?
@@ckthai2002 I don't know why it won't work for you two but I just clicked the link and downloaded the file just fine on my main PC I tried 3 browsers worked just fine. I also tried the link on my laptop again works and downloads just fine. I went to my neighbor's house and had my buddy try it and it works just fine for him. with that data at hand, I would suggest there is something blocking the download on your end. I will try a different upload site later and post an alternate link to see if this remedies your issue.
Okay ignore the first comment I figured it out lol but I have an issue with my mix amp. When I turn my bottom knob to prioritize game sound over chat, I get no sound. Any suggestions to this problem?
@retrolivegaming I downloaded the updated presets. After unpacking rar file I noticed multiple presets. Any difference on them? Believe it shows 4 of them
So after trying out these settings . It’s probably the best one yet . By any chance do you have the original settings ? I’m trying to reset but I didn’t take a picture of it and there isn’t a master reset
Hello Internet these settings work for Astro a40 and Astro a50 headsets. The profiles will work on any system you plug your astros into including Xbox, PlayStation and PC. Hope this answered your questions
ive watched a lot of tutorials but none of them worked for me. there's like a robotic sound and its really noisy and there's this strong bass i play fortnite a lot and the gun shots are like something exploded. i've got the astro A50 gen3, and thank you.
The Astro A50 "wireless ones" have that Issue its a very well known Issue too. Have you tried updating the firmware on them? If so and you still have that issue I would contact Astro and request an RMA
@@nasserov4845A40 with mix amp, i figured out bo4 doesn't use atmos, so im just using the stereo output and dolby off....i use these settings but i cant tell much of a difference between the settings given here and the first default settings on the mix amp.....
Hey Retro Live Gaming. I just recently upgraded my Astro A40s to the 2019 editions. They are supposed to have better sound quality, with more speakers in the headsets. Do you own the new ones yet, or do you have any recommendations on how to enhance my current settings (Which are your settings in this video)? I am still using your setting you have in this video. I’m not to good at know what’s the best sound frequency (adjusting) for sound quality.
@retrolivegaming by updating links you mean making a video, or the link you posted below this video. I tried to download the setting, I downloaded it, but my computer would not let me open it up for some reason.
It should be fairly straight forward? Lower frequency sounds are usually bass sounds like loud explosions and bombs exploding. You don't really need to hear that in competitve gaming its just distraction. What matters is more important sounds like footsteps and reloading sounds or distant shots. He shows his personal best settings to accentuate those sounds better, aka sound whoring.
He literally pronounced "natural bass" as "neutral bass" was I the only one who caught that? Are people these days just all braindead? Anyone that listens to someone who doesn't proof view their vids or even edits them, should be ignored.
@@Kawmbat_Veteran that moment you need to comment on everyone's post and videos only to say how bad others are, and inventing some random shit to make yourself feel just a tiny bit better about yourself. I pitty you fool.
Ok I will try that . Like I said I have been watching a tone of videos trying to figure out why my headset is not working properly but unfortunately with all the videos I have watched no one has gone into a lot of detail on updating the firmware they all say it needs to be done but that it. Thank you for the tip I will let you know if the problem is solved. Fingers crossed
To update the firmware you must. 1. plug your astro mix amp into your computer via USB. 2. put the astro mix amp into computer mode buy pressing and holding the power button till the LED turns white. 3. go to www.astrogaming.com/customer-service/firmware-and-software/software.html and download the astro command center software and install it 4. Launch the astro command center software and click update firmware.
Michael Donofrio Both of them have the same specs so it should work. BTW, what gen are you A50s? I have 1st and 2nd gen of A50s and once the battery was around 50% static noise was making it hard to ignore it so I returned to my A40s. :) I was wondering if 3rd gen has the same issue as I like my desk clean! :)
Michael Donofrio DSS is on on almost all games. If the game does not support it eill play stereo. If a game does support it’s just... very very good! I think I will order 3rd Gen A50s and give those a try and if these are not having the problem I will sold my old ones and keep the A40s as my backup headphones.
I searched 30 videos and they are all fucking pc videos. Where are the ps4 and xbox console eq mode settings? It doesn't have instructions even listing the eq modes it has 4 in a vertical designed with no names for the modes. I just want to know the first top one is that movies and the bottom 4 mode best for footsteps like cod.
The reason why is because you can only change the EQ settings VIA PC otherwise you're stuck with the 4 default. The instructions tell you what they are but I will help clear this matter up for you. since yours has 4 vertical dots you have the new GEN models which is good. from top to bottom 1. Astro - Best for all-around listening MMORPG's, Games like diablo 3, youtube videos, or just about anything on the PS4 as it decodes VIA optical. Gives both the bass and upper-mid registers a kick 2. Balanced - This is good for listening to music or watching movies 3. Natural Bass - This one is flat meaning all 5 drivers are equal on the Hz. This one is best for listening to music 4. Tournament - This one is the best default profile for FPS/Competitive shoots like pubg and COD On that note, my custom profiles are way better and more finetuned than the ones that come preloaded on your mix amp pro but I hope I helped you clear up your question
Starting to think astro a40s are overrated tbh, ive had them for nearly a year now ive tried every preset there is online and none seem to work for me. The price u pay for them is just for comfort and durability imo. If anyone thinks they know the best preset please message me!!
What seems to be the issue? They're not overrated at all they're really good when configured. Everyone's ears are different what works for me may not work for you. I will be releasing 4-6 new profiles soon so maybe one of those will change your mind about the astros

What about Dolby atmos, and the audio settings within cod ?
@retrolivegaming I don't have a pc is there a way you can make the new settings available for anyone that doesn't have a pc
I don’t think you can even change the settings without a computer because you need Astro command center to change the actual eq presets
Hello @retrolivegaming team! I have a doubt: after applying this settings, should I turn Dolby Digital on? Or off? Tks!
The new settings are dobly digital on unless you download my old "stereo settings"
Can I change these settings on the xbox app or do I need a pc 🤔🤔🤔
You need a PC to download the astro app in order to change the settings
There is an astro command center app on the Xbox that you can download and you can change settings there
I tried these settings on the new astro a40 2019 on black ops 4 and I can't hear any footsteps and can't never tell which direction they are coming from
