PLEASE ANSWER: I recently got this headset and the sound is great, but my friends can constantly hear my game volume through my mic which is getting very annoying. Do u know how to fix this?
Yes 🙌🏽 download the Steelseries GG software engine to your computer then connect your gamedac to your computer do all the updates then go inside the software set your mic volume correct and your sidetone volume to low or medium and you can add some gain but make adjustments to your headset audio. You can also do some of these changes on the gamedac itself inside the settings .

Yeah. First connect your gameDac to the computer rather it’s PC or Mac make sure you have SteelSeries GG software downloaded, after that make a account, then your gameDac will show up you want to update your headset so you can get the PC Sonar Presets
Download the Steelseries GG software on your computer, then make a account, and connect your gamedac to the computer then it should find your gamedac headset and prompt a software update for the headset then after it’s done its update you connect back to your PS5
When I connect my headset to my laptop, the GG app says it’s still not connected, what am I doing wrong? When I connect the deck to the app its says connected, I’m lost 😂
Just a regular laptop 💻 you can run gg software just fine and sonar on windows but if you use Mac only gg software will work then create a account plug your gamedac to the computer do the update and customize you want then save / sync to the gamedac then plug back to the console.
@@justindevries8494 yes 🙌🏽 you shouldn’t have to spend tons of money on one especially if you not gaming or streaming on it, but if you do stream then make sure you get a quad core processor or higher with at least 16GB of memory and 512 or higher storage
@@coaze ok in the gamedac after you plugged it there you did use the headphone jack port then go to your Xbox audio sound settings and to make sure your headphone/ mic is popping up
Yes I’ve plugged the gamedac to the xbox, then from the gamedac back into the headset port i can hear youtube fine, game audio fine, music fine but when i unmute my mic i cant hear myself talk and friends cant hear me but i can hear them
@@CraytonTvi appreciate the comments i had the lead into the gamedac the other way around😂 i was sat here completely confused ahah thankyou for the help!
Quick question, the gamedac can be brought on it’s own. And any headset that can connect via 3.5mm works with it. I have a pair of nova 7’s that I traded in for my nova pro wireless because they have more base even out the box and sound fuller. Can I hook up my nova 7 to the gamedac, customise an EQ, and will it save to the nova 7’s like it would with the gg engine ?
So the answer to your first question is I think you can buy the gamedac on its own if so it should be listed on the website, and for the next time umm im not too sure never tried it or owned any nova 7 but all you can do is try it and see, especially using the Steelseries GG software but it could work
Now I play on console, so I only hook the game dac up to PC on the PC side, or since xbox hook up to xbox side, then to PC to download to game dac and does the headset have to be hook up last when trying to install on game dac, thanks
@@brooshire36 the headset don’t gotta be hooked up last when trying to install the gamedac, so if your using Xbox then on the usb c side of the gamedac you connect that to the PC so you can download Steelseries GG and install all the required updates to the gamedac
Very good video to be honest with you. I just re-purchased those headsets over again. I had a turtle Beach headset because of the new update. I just re-purchased them again I like the new update.
Nice awesome, and thanks appreciate it, and there is so many headsets too hard to decide which is best, this headsets prolly will have more features coming too,
The 7p are good also! Especially if you are on budget, and these are good if you want a little better audio sound, but they both are good you just gotta update them on which ever you decide to get.
@@antclothier1178 yeah also give your Mac a restart just to make sure it clear out the cache then install it and it will download all the presets but I still think you find a preset you like and make adjustments or custom ones base off that and the game you play then hit sync on the software so it saves
You will connect your gameDac to the capture card, from the gameDac use the line out slot to put into the capture card your capture card and wave mic will be connected to the computer and the capture card will be connected to your console
Yo man got a quick question for you and i think some of your other subscribers could benefit. I would like to buy a cheaper pc/laptop/mini pc/ whatever the hell would work to play some older games. Primarily xcom2. The market is absolutely soaked with different things. I think for an old ass game like xcom2 i should hopefully be able to find a quality machine to run it for 300 or less. Help a homie out! Lol
We’ll have you looked on Amazon or MircoCenter - and whatever you buy or find make sure that it has 16GB memory or more on the system and dual core would be cool but I’d look for quad core or more and the storage have at least 512GB or more for storage cause you want to be able to run older games, which there are some laptops/ pc or mini pc out there that can do it, and should be able to find something.
Good question; but nope you shouldn’t lose nothing because the headset was design to make it customizable, so if you copy the preset setting then customize it to your own you should be solid and fine, cause each of those presets allow you to may adjustments, inside the software so it will be fine just make sure you sync it back to the headset or gameDac
Nope you don’t have to, you can go back where the volume is and adjust the volume, what I do is I pick the preset I want then I press the big button again then just hit back until I get to the volume adjustment and it be fine and still on the same preset.
@@HS-md1er it’s alright but I advice you look at it , test it and see how it sounds if you don’t like it copy what they have make a custom one base off the preset
How do I set up Chatmix using PS5? Also, do you have to keep the preset on the device on through all play? Like keep it displaying war zone through game play or once you select it you can use the dial for other stuff too.
@@Goatie1313 oh well with these on the gamedac settings make sure it’s set to stream and then use the turn dial to control Chatmix or you can do it in the PS5 control center settings
Is there any difference between the EQ’s we use in the custom and the EQ’s in these presets? Like is there a broader range for their premade presets we don’t see on the adapter outside of the 10 range
Umm good question, from your own custom vs the presets well the presets were design based off games and max audio performance, so what I do is copy the presets or make slight adjustments to the presets to make them the way you like because everyone ears processes audio differently.
Do you know if I make adjustments if I lose out on some EQ ranges that are in the presets though? Like let’s say I’m using the Rainbow 6 preset, which shows 10 EQ bands. I copy exactly what it is in a custom EQ, will the custom EQ be different because it doesn’t have the full sonar preset EQ’s? Sorry if this is confusing
@@ttru1023 it’s not confusing, umm nope you won’t lose the EQ ranges on the presets because it allows you to copy those and make your own in the custom to get the audio balance to what you want it to be.
@@ttru1023 the presets were made based off PC to use for console but for me I didn’t like them as much cause some games were low so I made adjustments to make it better for console, but they are still making them better for console
Connect the gamedac to the computer download Steelseries GG software , make a account then hit update the headset and it will update and give you all the new presets for console
@CraytonTv is there a way to add the newest ones it keeps the same one it came with I seen they added multiversus but I couldn't find the add on using the steelseries software
@@mrschwifty6 it should be rolling out soon for the gamedac - but I got to check and see how you add other preset normally people just go to custom and create same as the game they are playing but I’ll definitely double check today

Yeah make sure your PS5 is updated also you might be able to have the new feature for sidetone that way you can adjust your settings for how loud you speak, also did you update the Steelseries and since your using PC you have the ability to use the gg software plus sonar

Did you update the headset first with the SteelSeries GG software, then after you do that, you can connect to the PS5 in the gameDac press and hold on the big turn button, then scroll to audio input, then press the big button then it will say Presets, select that option then scroll through the games list

@@mrschwifty6 it should be rolling out soon for the gamedac - but I got to check and see how you add other preset normally people just go to custom and create same as the game they are playing but I’ll definitely double check today
@@CraytonTv thank you
@@mrschwifty6 you welcome 🤗
How do you connect the dec to the Mac book all I have are usb-c ports
Need a dongle that’s what I use or plug a usb c to usb c cable into the Mac and gamedac that will work also I do that also
Yeah for some reason it’s still not working update the software on Mac and still nothing
@@hype0866 if you got it downloaded, did you go to macOS settings and go to privacy then put your password in, the toggle on the switch for Steelseries then close it out close out Steelseries GG software then re-open it and connect the gamedac to the macOS computer plug the usb c into the gamedac usb c port, then your other usb c port into the macOS and make sure you make a FREE account with Steelseries GG
Hi what your settings for rb6 pls?
I don’t play RB6 but with this headset there is a preset feature option for RB6 that should work well if you can try the FPS preset
Can u drop the preset values for rainbow six please?:)
I would have to look what it is cause idk by heart
@@CraytonTv awesome appreciate!:) please let me know
@@cross-hairz800 sure when I look it up! I’ll let you know
Thanks bro, I was wondering how to do this
You welcome 🙏🏽 glad I was able to help
SO you need the steelseries dac so save the EQ profiles to the headset?? If i have the new Nova 7p, i cant use the Sonar software so save the EQ profile on the headset??
You can you just download Steelseries GG software and connect yours to the computer and make a account to see the profiles show up
@@CraytonTv thanks for the reply! so if i install the GG software, dont have the steelseries DAC, just the headphone, i can sabe the EQ setting to the headset and then use it on the console??
@Naesun1 what did your headset come with? Cause as long as you can get it to show up in Steelseries GG software after you make a account yeah you can update the EQ and sync to the headset
I made my own sonar configuration but doesn’t show up on my daq when it’s connected to ps5
Did you make a custom one and change the name and save it and then hit sync on the Steelseries GG software?
@@CraytonTv sorry, how do I save it or sync it? Sorry I’m not too good with computers
@@mcguzman5398 on the SteelSeries GG software when you create a custom audio in the bottom corners it says save then sync to console or gameDac and you can change the name so when you connect it back to your console you can see the custom you made.
@@CraytonTv thank you so much!!!
@@mcguzman5398 you welcome 🤗 no problem anytime
Best vid on this yet been lookinf for ages
Thanks 🙏🏽 appreciate it,
Just bought this headset and can’t see anything for an update so must be updated however don’t get preset option on my PS5. can someone help please?
Yes after you update the headset and plug to your console go to the audio option then presets then scroll through to find them of the game you want to play then when your on that game your good
@@CraytonTv I don’t get the option on the gameDac for presets only ever shows flat, bass, smiley and custom. don’t have a clue what’s wrong cause headset is updated
@@waynesworldgaming did you updated it from SteelSeries GG software? And make a account?
@@CraytonTv I have an account for Steelseries software which I’m signed into on my PC but doesn’t show that headset needs an update so I’m a bit confused on accessing these preset options with it not showing up
@@waynesworldgaming ok plug the gameDac to the PC to see if it shows up then?
I bought these a couple of months ago and I have been on the fence with them I have arctis 7 astro a40 aswel..I will give this update a go...
The new pulse is what I am looking forward to I think they will be one of the best gaming headsets on the market when they come out as they will have planer magnetic drivers in them as sony has bought Audeze
Yeah I have heard about that, but these headsets is good also, just so many headsets out there, gives people many options to choose
@CraytonTv I am going to update the headset now thanks for the heads up
@@dotsfrazer you welcome no problem anytime, yeah check out the features and see how you like them on console
@CraytonTv I play hunt showdown a lot it probably doesn't have settings for that game but one if them might suit it
@@dotsfrazer umm not too sure, but one can prolly suit it or you can design one that is custom for it,
Are you able to change presets? Like if you change presets on the software will it transfer to console?
Yes 🙌🏽 you gotta make sure you hit sync so it saves on the gamedac
@@CraytonTv got it. That’s actually really good cuz sometimes presets don’t sound good for everyone so it’s nice to change them.
@@StoneyJeorgie yeah I made my own custom one base off the presets to my liking for my ears sound way better
Any chance I can see the numbers for the PUBG preset? I have the Nova 7X and all the other presets work. I think I have it close just by looking at screen from the dac. Appreciate you showing some of the other presets. Trying Fortnite preset tonight.
Awesome 👏🏽 and thanks appreciate it, for the PUBG preset numbers starting from left to right would be - 31, 62, 125, 250, 500, 1K, 2K, 4K, 8K, 16K. The Fortnite preset was ok but I made changes to mine to make it a little better.
Thanks for the reply. I think you gave the Hz numbers instead of the numbers that go with them. Lol@@CraytonTv
@@flexmcgee8429 I did, that’s the ones off the gamedac let me the computer 💻 then.
@@CraytonTv Yeah the Steelseries app will give you a number for each of those Hz. So 30 will have a number between -10 and +10
@@flexmcgee8429 I’ll check that for you and send you the number presets.
Does this also work for Arctis nova 7P?
Umm not too sure, have you plug them up to your computer, and downloaded SteelSeries gg software and updated them if so then it should work.
@CraytonTv did steelseries add the option to have mic equalizer setting for console?
@@barrymuffin I know it’s on the software and you can sync it too the headset haven’t checked the console for it
Hey Brandon is there any game/chat mix on ps5? I’ve tried but can’t find any way of changing my game and chat volume
With this headset you can on the gamedac but on the PS5 you have to adjust it inside the game settings.
@@CraytonTv thanks for the fast reply. I actually tried that by pressing the ps home button and using the sound quick settings but the game/chat option is greyed out
@@LEROYONER well what headset are you using ? If you are using this headset from the video you gotta do it on the gamedac itself but if you are using a different one then you change it in your game that you play settings if it’s offered.
@@CraytonTv I’m using the arctis nova pro wireless ps version. It seems I can only control the master volume on the dac but I’ll try again on the main console settings and see if that works
@@LEROYONER yeah in the gamedac settings you should be able to make adjustments to the mic also, it’s under audio options
So does sonar only work with the Pros? Will you only be able to use GG Eq with the Nova 7’s?
Sonar should work with the ones you have but Sonar is a PC software. If you got a Mac then it only works using Steelseries GG software. I never tried Sonar fully cause I don’t own no PC
@@CraytonTv let’s say I use Sonar EQ on Nova 7’s will it work on the ps5? Or can I only edit the EQ using GG? Cuz it’s a little confusing
@@CraytonTv nevermind. So sonar is made for PC gaming and GG is made for console gaming I get it now
@@rxloadzz Sonar is for PC & Console but in order to make your headset even better you need a PC to download sonar then you can make adjustments then sync to your gamedac or headset for the same sound, but the Steelseries GG software has a lot of features they still adding more, and they have some sonar presets if you update your headset
@rxloadzz you can use Sonar to EQ your nova 7’s if you got a PC then you sync to your gamedac or headset then when you play on console your custom will be there
I've had the arctics nova pro wireless for pc and ps5 for 2 weeks now. I go to the gg app on my pc set everything up can have music full blast mic dosen't pick it up when I bring them over to ps5 I can barley breathe without my teammates hearing me I'm about ready to return them any suggestions?
Yeah make sure your PS5 is updated also you might be able to have the new feature for sidetone that way you can adjust your settings for how loud you speak, also did you update the Steelseries and since your using PC you have the ability to use the gg software plus sonar
@CraytonTv Yes everything is updated adjusted noise reduction and other settings in sonar also adjusted mic sidetone etc still dosen't transfer to ps5 works fine on my pc.
@@CraytonTv And I appreciate the quick response.
@@nick011421 oh ok, make sure your headset is plugged to the side of the gamedac
@@nick011421 you welcome no problem
I have the arctis nova pro wireless for my PS5 and for some reason my mic isn’t working in game chat but works perfectly fine in party chat and I have all my setting to talk on game chat on..any recommendations or help you can give me ?
Check your gamedac make sure that is set to stream, then check your PS5 control center make sure your audio is fixed
@@CraytonTv just tried it and nothing still
@@saulibarra8329 have you updated the wireless headset to make you are on the right game
@@saulibarra8329 you get no audio from the audio do you have anything plug correctly
I get audio it’s just my mic doesn’t work in game chat but works in the party chat in PS5
Sure wish I owned a computer to be able to do this
Yeah a windows or mac computer you can update the headset and get the features
@CraytonTv I'm aware lol thanks
@@SavageW4A you welcome no problem anytime
Can you explain how you did this just bought the headset and set my settings in sonar but it does not change anything when playing on my ps5
Did you update the headset first with the SteelSeries GG software, then after you do that, you can connect to the PS5 in the gameDac press and hold on the big turn button, then scroll to audio input, then press the big button then it will say Presets, select that option then scroll through the games list
@@CraytonTv I did not updat the headset I followed as you did in the video and I did not say it needed an update but still only get the standard things like flat and bass boosted
@@TitanRow yeah update the headset from SteelSeries GG software and then you will get access to the Sonar Presets
@@CraytonTv could you please explain how I am in the software the app is up to date but when I go in the engine I see the headphone but nothing about a update
@@TitanRow but is your headphones gameDac connected to your computer 💻? Once it’s connected to the computer there should be a option that says update the headphones if you don’t see it click on the gear ⚙️ icon and see if software update is there
Very good and forward video.
Thanks 🙏🏽 much appreciate it
can you do a giveaway for a astro c40?
Can I do a giveaway for a Astro C40 lol 😂 it will be a while before I do another giveaway or if I even do them again.
@@CraytonTv alright love the work
@@CraytonTv keep it going bro
@@Itskuniosaki thanks appreciate it, yeah the Astro C40 is only good on PS4 or PC can’t use it on the PS5 cause Sony blocked it gotta use PS5 DualSense Edge
@@CraytonTv damn really i just needed it cause I'm to broke to get a controller to play games so I got a ps4 and can't play games. But I'm still grateful that I got it 👍 thank you for responding
definitely a nice update
Yes it is prolly more features coming also
@@CraytonTv lets hope!
@@Twist-kj2fb yeah more things prolly coming since they keep updating it.
@@CraytonTv What do you think they should add? Being able to tweak the EQs on console was definitely a game changer. The only thing that I thinks missing is being able to rename the presets.
@@Twist-kj2fb well you can customize them but you have to do that on the computer first then sync it to the gameDac so your customization stays, but for me since I use Mac hopefully more sonar settings or bring that over to Mac computer
