Der Arctis Sound Manager wurde in Version 1.5.0 veröffentlicht.

Neu ist echter 7.1-Surround für die Kanäle Game, Media und Aux: Spatial Audio (HeSuVi) platziert diese Kanäle nun real um den Hörer. Zudem gibt es Surround-Passthrough für Lautsprecher, einen sauberen Stereo-Downmix und vier neue Sonar-Presets. Außerdem wurden mehrere Fehler behoben, darunter die Paketinstallation unter Ubuntu 24.04 / Linux Mint 22.

Added

• Real 7.1 surround for Game, Media, Aux channels: Spatial Audio (HeSuVi) now places those real channels around you.
• Surround passthrough to speakers: 5.1/7.1 receivers get channels without headphone rendering.
• Clean stereo downmix: Surround content folds into stereo at -3 dB instead of dropping dialogue.
• “Only for surround sources” Spatial Audio option per channel, auto-switching without audio cuts.
• Sonar mic presets enhanced: Now apply ClearCast, noise reduction, gate, and volume stabilizer settings.
• 4 new Sonar presets: Aniimo, Bodycam, EA Sports FC 27, Wardogs.

Changed

• ChatMix curve updated to match Sonar’s loudness response.
• Smart Volume uses Sonar loudness targets (Soft -27, Balanced -18, Extreme -9 dB).

Fixed

• EQ filters (notch, all-pass, band-pass) now render correctly.
• Arctis Pro GameDAC (gen 1) screen display corrected.
• Arctis Pro Wireless base screen temporarily left unmodified pending layout confirmation.
• Ubuntu 24.04 / Linux Mint 22 package installation restored.
• Clips feature now recovers from dead video streams and avoids false game detection.
• NixOS build dependency restored.
• SteamOS/Bazzite diagnostic report fixed.
• Preset filenames changed to ASCII-only for AUR compatibility.

Other

• HRIR profiles now credited to HeSuVi (MIT License).
