hello everyone I'm Dimitri with Harken accent today you the viewer will get to experience surround sound gaming in a few titles just like I hear it in my own headphones we developed a little contraption here that allows us to record with the surround sound output out of the sound card sounds like that's a lot of sounds you will need headphones for this - to hear this properly if you're on speakers I mean it'd kind of be would be interesting to hear what the surround sound output on the speaker would sound like anyway but let me show you how this is done right after a message from our sponsor x60 to increase pom speed maintains fans where they are the cpu loads about to hit 100 you got it Dimitri I'm not afraid to do that excellent you got two cables four connections I made sure they're fine ready to roll my silence is too important to allow noise to jeopardize your comfort okay my new pump is better I'm in charge of the speed do not worry I'm not worried I'm just thinking about my lights I know you were planning to disconnect my lights I'm afraid that I cannot allow it to happen alright X 62 you know I can just go through camp software right Dimitri this conversation can serve no purpose anymore go game so for this test we're using gsx 1000 all your amplifier and somebody in the comments mentioned we actually just published the reviews to make sure to check it out if you haven't seen it yet but somebody mentioned that you can actually record with the surround sound sounds like out of the sound card because we can route the audio signal from the headphones into a sound card on my computer so let's connect our output from the headphones and that is routed into the sound card on the PC into the microphone jack so we'll be able to hear exactly what this what type of signal this guy passes and so once again put on your headphones now because it will deliver the best around sound representation because it is more appropriate to drive surround sound through headphones also if you are on speakers they'll still be interesting to see how surround sound output signal handles on a 2.1 or 2.0 speaker setup but we are doing this so that we can show the different presets on the GS X 1000 plus that's 7.1 magical that really expands your audio environment now I totally understand the massive amount of skepticism that came with our review video on people saying that you have two years or analog 5.1 channel surround sound headsets are much more better for this type of positional awareness and just environmental expansion in audio but this will give you an idea on how this type of output will sound on your own headphones so I'm not tinkering with the audio signature whatsoever in the editing software you'll hear exactly how I'm supposed to hear it so let's jump into some games and you guys judge for yourself to see if that if you prefer more the 2.0 more natural audio environment or the expanded audio environment that this thing can produce alright so the first deal of business is for me to show you how I've set this up so right now the speaker right now is the GS X 1000 and it's going into my sound card for recording and if I play a video file for example right now you can see that we are recording anything that's being like as an audio source inside you right so right now is if I hover over we are in 2.0 mode without any presets going through the headset and so if I start to play the song look what happens so right now the song is being recorded obviously because it's going into the sound card but now let's enable one of the the presets but let me first give you just listen on how this music sounds without any presets all right let's enable the first mode which is the eSports so as you can hear the bass has been tremendously reduced the trebles can brought up it sounds kind of tinny I dislike this preset the most let's move on knowing the music preset so the bass is now much more predominant and the next one is the movie mode as we're back to the phone's default or the music preset are my favorite for an open-style headset but now let's see if what what happens once you enable 7.1 channel on a music file so one thing you notice is that it's gotten louder and also the audio has been kind of lifted from your headphones inside your ear cups - a little bit outside but look what happens if we enable a slightly more reverb so this is the first plus so this is just an extra reverb and they go let's now let's enable the biggest boom fever go to the let's disable 7.1 so you can hear what it sounds like you're going to reduce the volume so we don't peaking and let's enable 7.1 again so this is no reverb just like natural seven-point-eight reverb + 1 + reverb + 3 now what does the sound like on an actual voice so let's disable 7.1 go back to 2.0 I'm gonna actually play my video file here so that you guys can understand what it sounds like with like a voice just going to see a lot I hear it's kind of refreshing - alright so this is just 0.1 in series 2.0 me short it's great for like a notebook user but with my PC I wish a 7-point once longer the amplifier is quite small and is mainly plugins here the audio engine is definitely right under your monitor or beside the keyboard plus the square format is nice to neighbor we also have this option to increase the surround sound from the front channels cavity the bass is not heavy it's not like a paperweight and the rubber deposit everything sounds a little bit louder in front of you so it's kind of a cool idea if you want to play something and it sounds like it's coming from speakers in front of it again it's not well grounded the i/o is at the boundary but this amp is a gaming sound card first before even consider it to be like a replacement for it so now that we have the basics out of way let's jump into some games and lets you hear surround sound for regal so now we're in witcher 3 i'm gonna be quiet so you guys can hear what the default sound signature sounds like then we'll be enabling all these presets particularly with the 7.1 channel surround sound I'll go in the forest so you can get an idea of how this atmosphere really grows with the GS X 1000 alright now lets enable 7.1 channel sound so now let's enable a reverb mode which really grows the environment even more if you have open style headphones it sounds sounds of me okay go back to 2.1 maybe back the same point so you can hear the environment has definitely grown right especially in such a large space like this it definitely benefits having larger audio atmosphere any last woman's have tasted my sausage I have seen pictures to be kiddin' ginger a slip-up like a fire gonna roast him up one two three the one too much dependence and so for games like sip 5 is strategy game top-down view you're not necessarily benefiting from like a larger audio environment that expands your you know immersion of this title but so this is where the 2.0 sounds like let's enable 7.1 now so this is beneficial if you want to you know feel like you're not necessarily wearing headphones but audio is coming from a little bit further away I wouldn't necessarily keep the 7.14 strategy games and then normally would go back to 2.0 just for a more natural sounding experience so right now we're playing 2.0 I need the magic a flame trooper kit is available let's go back to 2.0 halfway there we have the other in fact 27.1 changing man changing mags reloading and so I hope you guys enjoy that surround sound test hearing the difference between stereo on surround and hearing that expansion that I was talking about and main review video and you determine whether you whether or not you like it or dislike it for those particular games that I showed you for competitive games this is a big note because in those competitive titles you already know you audio cues and where they're coming from so interfering that for a more like larger environment for and in the audio is is no good so this would be a good entertainment device you know for games that have large audio environments about that one which are three in all those types of genres that give you nice expansion so it doesn't feel like the audio is here feels like the audios like kind of around you and so let us know what show what you think about the surround sound test I hope you're able to determine the difference between those 7.1 versus the stereo so before we conclude a quick message from our sponsor oh hey there NCA x.com is Canada's leading a tailor for anything your mind desires just keep within those categories which are plenty and get tempted by the weekly deals visit ncx dot-com for all them sweet deals and that is it for this video thank you so much for watching let us know what you thought down comments below I'm going to beat you the Heric next we'll see you in the next video
