Is anyone using windows 10 insider fast ring?
There is an option for windows sonic, which is surround sound processing for 7.1
I currently have an x7 attached to my pc by usb and have the regular windows speaker config set to 5.1, in game set to surround, and sbx on. However, this is limited to 5.1 (in the x7).
How would I go about integrating windows sonic? should I shut off sbx in that case?
There is a dolby atmos option for headphones too, but that is not yet available.
One of the changes that is being rolled out now in the Xbox Insider program is surround sound support and while it’s not a massive change, it should be a welcome addition to those who like to play the console with headphones. The change appears to be native virtual surround option for Xbox One headphones and it is being called “Windows Sonic for Headphones.”
This feature gives players a feel like they are using virtual surround sound and apparently its being offered for Windows 10 through the insider program as well. While the update is only available to a select few now, it seems as though we should expect it to roll out to a bigger audience in the near future.
