Quiet mic and breathing picked up?

[ArcLight]

So I got a new headset the Corsair Void pro, which is wired, but windows tried installing the drivers but couldnt, I tried googling if I can manually get the drivers but found some software for lighting and stuff, no drivers, I went to device manager and found no drivers for my headset... please help?

Edit: For some reason it didn't work when I plugged it in through the case USB, but if plugged in through the motherboard it works? Wierd.

Edit: so now I got the headset working my voice through the mic seemes kinda quiet, but my breathing through my nose is loud, any suggestions help, thanks.

Why not go for quality audio brands?

Avoid all these gaming brands. Don't fall for the 7.1 gimmick, as it is simulated, which any stereo headphones can do without any additional hardware or software. Avoid all the toys.

Go for quality headphones and a seperate mic, rather than a gaming headset.

Im still going for a headset because 1. It's just useful 2. Cheaper 3. If I don't want 7.1 pretty sure you can turn it off 4. I've had a headset before, it wasn't horrible, it was pretty good, and since I did YouTube mostly as a hobby I heard myself speak and I don't think I sound horrible,

Don't know why everyone's pressuring me to get a separate headset and mic, I'm not a famous streamer or YouTuber or anything lol.

1. No more useful than a regular pair of headphones and a mic.

2. Not necessarily. You can spend more wise, not just spend more.

3. 7.1 is emulation. Any speakers can play this back. It is nothing special or tied to any particular headset or headphones. It is just software emulation of surround sound. It is merely a setting in the playback settings. Comes native with Windows these days. Simply right click the audio icon in the task bar and enable/disable spatial sound. Don't fall for that gimmick.

4. A decent pair of quality headphones would put most gaming headsets, even several times more expensive, to shame. Even a simple clip on mic tends to be on par or better than most gaming headset mic's quality.

It has nothing to do with being "a famous streamer or YouTuber", it has to do with value per dollar. Get more for your dollar, rather than settle and stay blind thinking "7.1" is a selling point.

You're not exactly satisfied with your purchase, either. Go with something that actually uses your sound card. These USB headsets cut so many corners, because it has to fit headphones, mic, and sound card, all into the budget. Using simple math, you can see that leaves not much for quality components.

I really recommend that you go with a proper 3.5mm pair of headphones, so that you can actually use the sound card on your motherboard (that is way better quality than could be on a cheap gaming headset), and a seperate mic. A clip on mic will do, as something like a Zalman ZM-MIC1 would be better than the mic on most cheap headsets.

I've heard 7.1 before, I think it sounds cool, I say I can deactivate it if I want because when gaming I could turn it off, but if I'm watching a movie or YouTube videos it sounds cool, at least to me, also for movies, reason I'm buying this is not specifically for the 7.1 I thought I said this already, it's comfortable, and looks nice, I know some people don't care about LEDs, but I do and it seems cool, also a reason a set of headphones can be better is because the headset comes with aic, so the price is increased, I really doubt they make you pay that much just for the earcups and such, also I just prefer a headset, alot of people tell me that the blue yeti is good, but that's like $100, and I'm pretty what you guys consider decent would be mabye another $50-70, I dont need super HD audio, I just want it to be clear, also I used to the wrong word I didn't mean to say more useful, but just more comfortable since I've used headphones before, and if I bought a mic on stand it might feel wierd to me, also I can my head around with the mic still being the same distance from my mouth right? I'm just saying that it's fine if you think you guys want a separate headset and mic, I find it un-necasary.

The 7.1 you are talking about in a headset is emulation. You can enable it or disable it all you want with any old pair of headphones, too. It is software emulation. It isn't a real selling point. Get over it.

For the same price you'll be paying for this gaming headset, you can get better. We can guide you to spend you money better. Like I said, spend more wisely, not just spend more.

Also I should mention this is fixed, for some reason didn't work when I plugged it into the case USB, but in the motherboard it works... Wierd.

I am over it, but I thought you guys kept using it as a point in your arguments...and I was trying to explain why I like it, I don't really care if it's emulation. Also if you can guide me to spend money, k cool, but what should I get than?

I'm on mobile, so can you please edit which one is the headset and which one is the mic for future use? Thanks

[Bad 💀 Motha]

I'd return that headset, and avoid all USB headsets.
Get a quality analog one and if you're sound card / onboard audio is not that good, get a USB DAC

The DT-770 and the HD5 are both Headphones, the Schiit is an Digital Audio Decoder.

Mic rly depends on your budget, clip mic, yeti, rode nt etc.

The point was that it doesn't matter, because anything can use simulated 7.1. If you use some old ear buds from the dollar store, you can use simulated 7.1 with them as well. It has nothing to do with the headset or headphones in use. It isn't a selling point, and that was my point.

Yeah, I can point you in the right steps. Looks like a lot of great suggestions already have been mentioned, though. Budget?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

It's only a selling point gimmick to those who are un-aware. Which I really don't understand why that is. When it comes to Audio on PCs; between the OS + Driver, Stereo (2-channel) configured devices all have the ability to do Virtual Surround. It's just a form of Speaker-Fill so you can actually hear all 6/8 channels on a 2-channel device, such as Stereo Speakers/Headphones.

Yup.

I blame advertising.

That and too many people are just unaware of the technology they use on a daily basis.

Wait so let's say I have a stero headset, how would I enable 7.1 on them?

you dont enable 7.1 just surrond emulation in windows audios ettings our your audio program.

technically you dont get real 7.1 sound with headsets because in the end you dont have 7 different speakers in multiple directions but only multiple speaker on the left and right ear. In the end they are small poor audio drives setup in a normal stereo configuration.

Holy♥♥♥♥♥♥Im so sorry for ever doubting you, for some reason this mic is actually bad, the quality of my voice isnt bad, but its quiet, also my breathing is SO LOUD for some reason, not only that but I checked and it can only go up to 48k hz in sound? but my old Turtle beach X12 could go to like 98hz?
