Steelseries Arctis 5 (or any other 7.1 headphones) settings.

[deamian_pl]

Hello mates !

Can someone tell me how to correctly set Steelseries Arctis 5 headset (or any other with virtual 7.1) for CS go?

Which audio options should I use and which settings are the best ?

Steelseries claims that Arcits 5 can support 7.1 sound. I was looking for any tutorial on YT, but found nothing.
Should i use 7.1/5.1 sound settings in game ? how to set it right ?
Maybe headphones/ HRTF headphones would work better ?

I changed from Creative Aurvana Live yesterday and I would like to get best results..

Thx for help. I'm quite newbie in sound ;-)

I don't know if Steelseries uses any software to enhance the surround capabilities, and I don't use that brand myself (even though it's a great brand mind you), but there is a software out there called "Razer Surround Pro" that can take any headphone, even stereo ones, and simulate surround after calibrating them. The good part about it is that it can be used with any headphones, not just Razer. I use it with my Razer Kraken Pro's and I can easily identify where the sound is coming from. I recommend it. I use the "Surround headphones" setting in CSGO, not the HRTF and it works perfect for me. Good luck mate.

Firstly, i have this exact question but, HRTF Since i'm writing this has been improved and download the SS3 Engine (SteelSeries 3 Engine) to active the 7.1 Surround sound. GL
