HeadsetControl VS Aurora

I guessing it needs to be put into a state todo this? The program https://github.com/Sapd/HeadsetControl can query the state of the Game/Chat mix dial. I pretty much just use this dial for Discord, so at minimum I want to have it so using the Game/Chat mix dial changes the volume of the Discord application. Ideal would be having a virtual sound that gets mixed back into the sound output.

For the arctis, you can likely use https://github.com/Sapd/HeadsetControl I'm using it with the nova 7 and it has 4 built in equalizers which do the job for me. You miss out on built in chatmix like sonar has but you can implement it pretty easily using pulseaudio virtual audio devices and interfacing with headset control to get the chat mix level from the headset. If you want to send me a dm once you get your system set up I can send you over a private repo I have for it!

Same here. My Logitech gaming headset works great in Linux. I do have to use some third party thing to adjust the goofy LED colors and side channel volume, though.

For the headset, this is a bit more difficult, if and only if, you are looking for a full compatibility, meaning all the functionality you would have in Windows. I would recommend looking at HeadSetControl repository if you need a full control of your headset under Linux, else all basic functionality should be available on most of the Headset market (please verify using google).

I also used it in Ubuntu with this little cli-tool headsetcontrol from here https://github.com/Sapd/HeadsetControl which works great with the G533. It also supports some other headsets, so it might be worth checking out.

Everything using Bluetooth should work, sometimes with a tiny bit of tweaking. If you want a bit more of functionality, look at https://github.com/Sapd/HeadsetControl you will find a list of supported devices.

This is probably what you want https://github.com/Sapd/HeadsetControl

I switched to linux a few weeks ago and talking with friends in discord is really annoying because of the sidetone. I've tried disabling it from alsamixer(there was no sidetone option) and HeadsetControl.

With my current headset, the problems I've had on Linux were the following: - Lack of battery notifications (mitigated with HeadsetControl) - Lack of surround settings - Can't use the programmable button

EDIT - Additional Info: I do usually use third-party RGB controller software to modify the backlights, I didn't realise how limited the vanilla Ducky software is in customisability when I bought the keyboard, so I use Aurora RGB for this https://www.project-aurora.com

Unless with the help of third-party projects. For example, Aurora.

It might be possible to do it using Project Aurora / git hub, an opensource 3rd party rgb middleware that tries to juggle the various proprietary APIs.

I run a program called Aurora on top of G Software to get that functionality though.

I have a Roccat Vulcan 120 RGB keyboard which has a sweet volume knob on it. Don't use the software that comes with it though. I use Project Aurora[1] to control the lights on the keys. I'm able to program color/fx/animation per key per program that has focus. It's useful if you have new software or a game you're not used to. For example, you can highlight all the relevant keys to help you memorize them.

But mainly I use it to play an audio waveform of any music that's playing. And highlight caps lock whenever it's on.

Aurora can do this https://www.project-aurora.com/

so the fn key thing but with other modifier keys is not possible to do with chroma, you can try Project Aurora

You could take a look at Aurora but haven’t tried it with the Viper.

Check 3rd party apps like project aurora: https://www.project-aurora.com/ or OpenRGB: https://openrgb.org/
