- On the headset, slide the surround sound switch towards the Dolby logo to enable 7.1 surround sound.
- For optimal experience, set your game or application audio to surround sound (e.g., 7.1, 5.1, or multi-channel). Avoid using specific headphone audio settings within games/apps if possible.
- Movie playback (DVDs, Blu-ray™) may require third-party software.
- When surround sound is off, the headset outputs stereo audio.
G-keys:
- Use the included software to customize G-key actions for media players, chat clients, voice morphing, and other applications.
- G-keys can be used in the background while gaming in full-screen mode.
General Use:
- Some games/applications may require a restart after plugging in the headset for proper recognition.
- Volume and microphone controls are available on the headset and within the software.
- Muting the Microphone: You can mute the microphone by either pressing the dedicated mute button on the headset or rotating the microphone boom to its upright position. The microphone mute light will illuminate in both cases.
- If no sound is heard, ensure the Logitech G35 is set as the default audio input and output device in your Windows sound control panel.
- Refer to the full user manual within the G35 software for more detailed information.
