but no option to select my audio Device as being 5.1 or stereo. Middle Earth - Shadow of Mordor only has options such as tv, headphones and home theatre. I've noticed that any game with audio settings that allow you to choose Headphones and 5.1 gives the most impressive audio experience ever! Why don't games offer this?! Like BF4 offers this kind of options and that games sound unreal!

I had to tinker with the PS4 audio settings and the game itself before I got the fantastic surround effect. One last thing! I just bought the Last of us remastered and the surround effect is utterly fantastic!

Should I considering buying the Roccat Kave XTD 5.1 digital headset for gaming purposes? Since it has 3 drivers in each can it should be capable of better immersion at the cost of quality. I honestly just don't have any room for 5.1 discrete speaker system so I must stick to headphones for surround sound but umm. How does connecting VIA USB differ? like since I'm not connected up to the computer using the line in jack would windows not see potentially more than stereo?Īlso you mention it's up to the headphones or DSP to upmix stereo to virtual 5.1, are you referring to Creatives SBX surround feature or would this virtual surround just automatically kick into effect?

When should I use SBX Surround or even at all? from my experience it makes everything sound awful!ĭoes consoles get higher quality audio files over PC?Ĭheers lads for your previous comments and your future comments!Īh I see, I didn't realize that consoles have this sort of agreement! I guess this is why I always notice the audio quality as being very good compared to most of my pc games :/ ugh. While I'm hear, I would like to ask some other lil questions!ĭoes it matter or make any difference in changing the audio to 192000 from 48000 or even 96000? I guess after testing multiple games, it does appear as though that stereo is simply the best way to go about getting better surround sound while using headphones ^^ and the same can be said when I changed Windows from 5.1 to stereo! The effect was still better. I just tried Middle Earth - Shadow Of Mordor on the PC and upon changing settings to Home Theatre or Headphones, Headphones does indeed offer better surround sound. Maybe PC games just have lower quality audio files? My current pair of headphones are just the same and offer a good surround effect in most games, Destiny on the PS4 sounds utterly unreal! Most PS4 games I have just sound very very impressive but on the PC it seems to always lack that special surround effect for some reason. My Logitech G930 virtual 7.1 surround sound did sound pretty good without the virtual surround on though I had a Sharkoon xTactic 5.1 with 4 speakers in each cup and it didn't sound any better than a normal stereo headphones so I stopped bothering with them!

To those of you who know what you're doing, Are my settings set correctly already? Is it the actual game itself that just doesn't support 5.1 surround sound? How can this be! I've done this and it makes things sound awful! :L I do assume that I should have windows set to stereo as that's all I need for surround sound and that indeed appears to be true but I've done plenty of research and I've found that 5.1 should be enabled in Windows and SBX should be headphones and even some say SBX surround should be on?!?! I put SBX Surround on and as usual it was useless and gained no surround at all!

I mean the sound is great but the surround is actually lost! So that's useless Running Dying Light gave a terrible effect. I tried changing windows to 24/96000 5.1 and on SBX I still surround off.

Upon using SBX surround it barely does anything other than make things sound more echo like and doesn't widen the sound field at all. I just bought Dying Light on the PC and so far the surround experience is pretty good but I'd expect a bit more :/ I had windows set to stereo and on the SBX I had surround off also.

I have the Creative Sound Blaster X7 + Beyerdynamics DT990 Pro 250ohms and I just want the best surround experience that I can get without using the SBX Surround as it's complete useless! I'm just curious which setting I should be using for my Headphones.
