HyroProto Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 My settings for Games/Movies Corsair Control Panel > I prefer Dolby Pro Logic 5.1 setup to 7.1 > Chose "Dolby Pro Logic.." - As u can see, the Dolby Logo is grayed out..its not turned on http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/1705/dolbyu.jpg to turn it on, we need to configure "Windows Audio Manager" like we did when configuring "Stereo" above Windows Audio Manager > Configure > Select "5.1 Surround" > Then select the speakers like below http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/7505/dolby3.jpg > click Finish > Once u set up "5.1 Surround in your audio Manager..In the Corsair Control Panel..The "Dolby Pro logic" logo lights up http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/458/dolbyon.jpg Now u have decent Dolby 5.1 surround working.. Sadly u need to do this every time u change to Stereo & back to Dolby again...if u just click on the Dolby icon in Corsair control panel..it is grayed out.. to activate it..u need to set 5.1 in windows audio manager every time >> Now download "THX Jungle Surround Demo" (Google it).. now test it with Dolby Pro Logic 5.1 "On" & get blown away :) hope the 2 settings helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 11, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 11, 2013 Amazing guides Hyro. I will sticky this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogroll Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Thank you Hydro, excellent guide and those settings are very good. I would never have thought about not chosing the Full Range Speakers option. I would have thought someone at Corsair should've shown this but hey-ho :) Agree that Dolby sounds better in game ATM, but because the 7.1 option's adjustments are so incredibly finicky to use, I don't have the hair left to even want to experiment with them. So you reckon on not using any of the Windows options in the Windows Audio Device manager for games?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyroProto Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 When u turn on Enhancements like "Loudness Equalizer" it incorrectly amplified small background sounds..meaning I found in games like Borderlands 2, it made u hear footsteps & enemy noises much closer to you when in reality they were a bit far away.. so it just messed up the environment/background noises far too much to be of any help... So i turned them off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

low351 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Is this setup with the old drivers? I don't see the same screens with the Environment size setup in the v2.0.7 installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
