ActualPanda Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Hey! I recently purchased a corsair 1500 headset and have been confronted with a few problems these being the static noise and my microphone not working. I have been fiddling around with the corsair headset control panel and windows control panels, with this i have been able to reduce the static noise to a bearable amount but my microphone is not working, (i have tested it with skype and audacity) I really dont know how to insert pictures, so here are some gyazo links: microphone enabled in sound: http://gyazo.com/08f03762ef1ef5b73b2584ef5ab4e907 microphone level in recording>microphone>properties>levels: http://gyazo.com/4e098fc103eaf04b0e79be1fdbb93f9f Speakers enabled in in sound: http://gyazo.com/2c04608ec231db42b0ca0c36b3e70afc Speaker levels in playback>speakers>properties>levels: http://gyazo.com/afd8afd644f1dfd7ed419e18d836d6bb Vengance headset in device manager: http://gyazo.com/e671037c100f8efdc1a8a02f3d45d881 Vegence control panel settings: http://gyazo.com/a8230c90bedda890470e3179ad345680 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matas Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Hey! First of all: You need to set 0 and mute in your playback devices line and microphone (open sound control->press properties on your corsairs->playback->levels->and there you can mute them). After that in the same sound control panel open enhancements and check the speaker fill (open sound control->press properties on your corsairs->playback->enhancements->there check those options and apply. Here's your surround :) Secondly: You need to download Equalizer APO (http://sourceforge.net/projects/equalizerapo/) and instal it, in instalisation you need to choose your headset and then headsets microphone. After instalisation reboot your computer. Then go to your Equalizer APO folder and open config.txt file (C:\Program Files\EqualizerAPO\config\config.txt), delete there everything what is written and put this: Device: Corsair Vengeance 1500 Headset Speakers Preamp: -30db Device: Corsair Vengeance 1500 Headset Microphone Preamp: +25db You can change the decibels. :) I hope that will help you!
