It just controls the OS volume, which sucks by the way.
I don't know why that sucks, all USB sound cards do exactly that.

The question is, I have the GSP 600 at the moment and I think about buying AMP 1200pro but thinking about the possibility that I put the highest VOL it would cause distortion?
I use the GSP550 and the GSP600 on a daily basis since long now. I never need to use volume close to 100% I game at volume 22 with both headsets. In some Youtube and movies I use up to 40%. In that range there is no distortion audible for me. 100% is too loud anyways, why do you want to know that?

To what level of VOL is this similar to AMP?

Regarding the 100% volume check that you're insisting on, might I ask whether you're dealing with some form of hearing damage already, or is that required for some other technical reason?
There is also another question as to whether you or someone you know might be aspiring to experience some kind of hearing damage, but I am afraid to ask that question, for obvious reasons :)

Ok then, just for you, in the few seconds on 100% I could not detect distortion. It is all good. But too loud for me.

The 100% volume thing is an important question. On my asus sound card, dolby headphone raises the volume. It is assumed that people will use digital volume control, which will create headroom to prevent dolby headphone from clipping. When people use an external amp, they often max out the volume on the dac for maximum snr, but this would cause clipping with dolby headphone.

So when using the gsx 1000 with an external amp, I would be cautious about setting the volume to 100.

hello guys buy the gsx 1000 but i have issue with it.

also i dont get all the option.

What are you trying to do? The GSX is driverless. It can only be set as default. The configuration is done on the device only.
