HOW TO : PC SET UP (Headset Only)

[punisher70000000]

annoying what bout my 5.1 speakers ??

[Blamdibum]

i got this headset without the mixamp to connect it to my soundcard..BUT..is it the 2011er edition or the old edition??

[OGStraT]

How do you do this with the Mixamp??!?!?

[hikoseijuro922]

I want optic setup not this

[SayerofCody]

does the standalone headset come with the PC cable?

[1234565225]

would this work on a mac?

[GamersForever1000]

@1234565225 yup doing it right now its amazing!

[npplscorpion]

This is only stereo sound. If you want surround sound you hook the amp or the tx to the comp via toslink optical cable and with the pc usb chat cable from the tx's aux port to usb. Last thing to do is connect the headset to the amp's 3.5 mm pc port. There you have it, surround sound!

[theshadowsoldier1]

Do the Green and Pink jack cord come with the A40's or do you have to order them separate?

[gregnscott]

does the mixamp make a differnce to the pc sound

[VoDHub]

@AusCoDShotOfTheDay Same, I don't know what it is but also the Astro A40 should be USB for PC since Aux is old.

[ChargedGoldenCreeper]

wtf it dosent work

[MrDruloXD]

Does this apply to laptops too?

[Antiinequity]

Fuck u what about mother fucker MIXAMP??

[caesar1328]

What worked for me on pc was connecting the tossling cable to the pc and the usb charging cable, then go into sound, Playback devices and go to Realtek Digital Output(optical) and set it to Deafualt Audio device then it works

[Unor1ginal]

[TheVeefazz]

If I have an optical port on my PC, can I plug it in through the mixamp and then to the computer using the TOSlink port?

[NOSTOXIC]

[MajorThudly]

I try to record my voice on the pc but it sounds terrible! How can I sort this problem out?

[MrTomahawkman]

[janbrablec]

How is the microphone on PC? Can you guys show us on a video? I heard that it's pretty bad on PC.

[thechrisbooth1993]

@janbrablec  Depends on your soundcard!

[janbrablec]

@thechrisbooth1993 Well, I've got one of the he best soundcards in the world (Fatal1ty Pro Titanium Series), but that doesn't affect the microphone quality.

[xFORNETTx]

is there a way i can utilize the mixamp with the pc sound?

like plugging it into the spdif ports using the toslink cable?

[ghero1014]

plug the usb from the mixamp to the pc and thats it :/

[Maj0reRR0r]

I think I read something about the mixamp giving 5.1 Dolby Surround Sound on PC, is this true? If so how can I use the mixamp with the PC?

[jokernoob2]

[AdventureTimeTime1]

[ZOMB13SLAY0RZ]

Can you use the mixamp for pc?

[gamersxs]

My pc is not detecting the microphone from my a40s

[Periwinkleton]

I can't hook up the green cord (Audio) to the back of my computer because my speakers take up that spot. Help?

[MrGul120]

@Periwinkleton Take your speaker's out....your going to be listening through the headset....

[Periwinkleton]

@MrGul120, I bought a new headset (And returned the old one) with a USB cord. Works fine now, thanks anyways :)

[xFORNETTx]

@Periwinkleton or use a splitter

[serjONERR]

i get sound but people cant hear my mic

[MrLander23]

i followed ur tips but my headset can't make any sound !!! my headset is not like your headset !!!

[jamesadams117]

@MrLander23 Yeah same here, I set mine up both ways, and the PC recognises the headset and mic. But doesnt play any sound through the ports. So the headset is quiet

[xZM3rC3nArYXz]

I Figured Out By Using The Manual And Simple Thinking Lol It Was Very Simple (Also The Headset Is Awesome!)

[anton45654]

yes! thank you!
