To begin, please connect your headset to the computer and wait for the driver to be installed on your machine. The iCUE software is required to control the headset. Once installed, the software will identify your headphone model and allow you to control the following options depending on the model you have:

  • Lighting Effects
  • Equalizer
  • SoundID Personalization
  • Device Settings
  • NVIDIA Broadcast technologies

Is My SoundID profile saved in the headphones?

No, your SoundID profile is being stored in the iCUE software (iCUE driver), when you close the iCUE window, the software is still working in the background and you can access it from the tray icon. If you quit the iCUE software from the tray icon, this will disable your SoundID profile. Once the iCUE software is launched, your SoundID profile will be loaded and ready for you to enjoy!


Can I add my personal Preference Test sample tracks? 

No, at the moment this functionality was not developed. The Preference Test will be based on the sample tracklist you see inside the app.
