In this guide, we look at some of the ways in which you can make sure that you are getting the most accurate and expansive auditory information in CSGO. Consequently, getting your audio settings right will help you construct the vital foundation needed to build your in-game skills. You may have the highest skill level in the world, if you are being fed the wrong information, you will come to the wrong conclusions and make the wrong choices. While you are configuring your sound settings for optimal performance, I also suggest you read our guide on getting a sound Equalizer for Windows 10.Just like training artificial intelligence, the ‘garbage in, garbage out’ principle fully applies to competitive gaming. Just remember if you switch between playback devices quite a lot you will need to configure Loudness Equalization for each individual device. If at any stage you wish to disable Loudness Equalization, simply return to the exact same location and remove the tick from the box. After you have made this change all sound being output by this device will be levelled out using some advanced sound management principles.


Note: just a quick reminder that not all sound output and input devices for Windows 10 support Loudness Equalization.

If you only want to configure volume normalization for a specific device, say your headphones This is also possible as all sound output and input devices on Windows 10 are treated separately. If you always have to adjust your volume levels because of extra loud bursts of sound, normalised sound settings are going to help you out a lot. This allows you to level out max volume levels so that ads and other annoying content doesn’t playback louder than everything else you have your volume set for. Getting back on track… Apart from being able to choose exactly where your sound is coming from or going to, you can also enable volume levelling for independent devices.
