Adjusting Sound

Chat Boost™

Chat Boost is a dynamic talkback expander built into the PX4 headset that automatically increases chat volume
during loud moments in your game, so you can always hear your teammates or other players, regardless of the
game volume.
Typically, if you turn up a headset's game volume, the incoming chat level from other players could become dif-
ficult to hear over the game sound. However, with Chat Boost, as the game audio increases, the chat volume also
increases. When the game volume quiets down again, Chat Boost automatically returns the chat level to your
original volume setting.
To properly set the Chat Boost function:
1. Turn down the volume control on the headset so there's no game audio.
2. Adjust the chat volume control on the headset so you can hear the chat voices at a comfortable level.
3. Turn up the headset game volume and the chat volume will increase whenever the game gets louder, just as if the
chat volume control is being automatically turned up along with the game level.
WITHOUT Chat Boost, WITH Chat Boost,
chat volume is overwhelmed by loud game audio chat volume increases along with game volume
NOTE: If the chat volume on the headset is set too loud, Chat Boost might increase the volume so much that the
voices will distort. If that happens, turn down the chat volume on the headset.

Variable Mic Monitor

The PX4 headset includes a unique variable
Mic Monitor
microphone monitor feature that allows you
to adjust the level of your voice heard in the
headset so you won't have to shout. This can be
adjusted by turning the MIC MONITOR wheel on
the left ear cup.
NOTE: Turning up the mic monitor may cause the mic to
pick up room sounds which will make the silence detec-
tor not automatically shut off the headset when it's not
being used. If the power is not automatically shutting
down, turn down this mic monitor control.
