Updated April 2021 - Best Astro MixAmp Settings

I've been getting a lot of questions on what sound settings I am currently using while I play Call of Duty Modern Warfare/Warzone or Call of Duty: Black Ops: Cold War. And I have the answer for you in today's video.
I want to preface this all with the following -- THERE IS NO GOLDEN EAR. In other words, only you can determine what definitively sounds "best." These are just recommendations - tweak, tune, and change as necessary.
Good luck and happy hunting.

First, off just wanted to say I'm a big fan and watched your older videos. I think you made a mistake in this video: The version of the Zeference (Zalias) that you're using does not match what you are telling people to download. The Call of Duty® Modern Warfare Tournament Ready EQ on Zeference page has totally different audio settings than what you're saying are the best at 11:04 in the video.

@colinpastuch 3 года назад

Just to further clarify, I think the version of the tournament ready EQ that you have loaded into your mixamp is OLDER than the 1.2b version you tell people to download in the video because the EQs don't match up.

@vypermajik 3 года назад

HI Colin - Thanks for the kind words and the support. Hmm... I'll have to investigate. The point I was trying to make was that this is "the site" to use -- whether it be for MW -or- BO:CW; but if I'm wrong I'm wrong and I'll fess up! I'll pin this for now. Thanks for keeping me honest!

@Extirpo 3 года назад

Greetings. Have played some hours Cold War with the Zeference EQ, Astro 40 and Sennheiser hd 600 headphones. For my ears the Astro 40 cant differentiate the crucial soundsteps from especially gun fire, but also other sounds in the same range. When crancking gain it quickly gets directly painfull. This in stark contrast to the 600s, where the open phones takes pressure off eardrums. The Zeference EQ very much shines here. For the Astro 40 (that is used when in party > mic), I use Glasscock’ EQ, that is much more leaned towards treble, and which the 40s can handle even with lots of gain. He can easily be found here on YT.

@vypermajik 3 года назад

Wow, another endorsement for an EQ. You've intrigued me! I'll definitely give it a listen. I love messing around with this, and love the fact that the MixAmp supports 4 different pre-sets means it's super easy to try on the fly. Thanks!

Hi, do you use the star or dolby? And what are your windows settings on?

@vypermajik 2 года назад

Hi Axel -- depends on the game. Sometimes the star makes it sound too tinny and echo-ey (very technical terms, I know!). So it varies by experience. Regarding Windows, all I have is for the audio to utilize my optical port; nothing fancy there. I turned off any extra enhancements, etc. since I'm letting the DAC do the work.

Great video thanks so much for the tips and being so clear and concise with everything! Quick question though regarding the mix amp.

Thanks for taking time if you read this

@vypermajik 3 года назад

Hello Batsa -- I'm glad the guide helped you. Regarding your question, I've had this issue a well, but here's a quick work-around. In your Control Panel/Sound tab, make sure both PlayBack and Recording tabs that your MixAmp is set to the Default Communications Device. On the Xbox App, make sure your sound is configured to Default Audio. That should fix the issue. :)

That would work as you stated... I think Astro sounds infinitely better WITH optical... it's just how it was designed. My two cents. But if you have a solution you like, that's great.

@Ben-yp4rr 3 года назад

Can confirm it is 100% the better option to use the optical, I tried the mixamp with just the USB from ps5 and once I got the splitter for the optical it was so much louder and clearer, my advice is to invest in a good 4k 60hz pass through splitter unless you can get the one from astro

Hello! Yes, just do your best to match the EQ curve with your associated equalizer. It's not so specific regarding the actual values, it's more of the values relationships to one another. So as long as the waveform generally matches, you'll be in the audio ballpark regarding what kind of experience you'll have.

Has anybody here paired the Astro mixamp pro TR with a set of Sennheiser HD660S and settled on an EQ?. Ive got both the A40s and HD660s, and as someone has said in the comments i find the Zeference Tournament WZ + MW settings to be easier to distinguish different noise over an EQ ive been using with the A40s. Both however are good at picking up audio (footsteps) i think the Sennheisers are just that bit clearer and layered when still wanting to hear footsteps whilst running / shooting etc

@vypermajik 3 года назад

Hello, sure... a MixAmp could drive the 660S pretty well, I would think. Might sound a tad quiet on the high side, but any Amp is better than no Amp. I'm a huge Sennheiser fan (I have quite a few videos on my new headphones) so I'm with you on the setup.
