From the brand

We've always believed in the power of sound. In 1989, we changed how people experienced audio with sound blaster. For the first time, computers had a voice.

Today, we carry that legacy forward. Our headphones, speakers, and sound cards are designed for how people live, work, and create. Whether it's a quiet moment alone or a shared experience that matters, we build audio that inspires.

Audio that becomes part of your story.

Product Description

sound blaster g3 plugged into ps4, compatible with pc, mac, ps5, and nintendo switch

Driverless Audio Upgrade

USB-C plug-and-play audio upgrade for gaming consoles with USB audio. There’s absolutely no fiddling with extra settings or installation to get started.

Control and balance the volume level between two audio sources directly via Sound Blaster G3

featuring gamevoice mix which allows user to balance the volume level between two audio sources

Our Latest Debut – GameVoice Mix

You have that pair of headphones. It’s your absolute favorite, but why do you need to fork out so much more in order to get access to that ONE feature you covet?

The G3 debuts our latest GameVoice Mix*, a gaming feature often found only in products that are priced at a premium. The G3's GameVoice Mix gives you game audio / chat balance capabilities – all without having to let go of your existing headphones or hurting your wallet.

Without leaving your game screen, our GameVoice Mix volume dial allows you to easily increase your voice chat volume during a raid to hear your team better, or decrease the chatter and amp up your gaming audio during a particularly climatic scene on your game – simply plug in the G3 via the USB-C and Optical / Line-in port to better your gameplay.

*This feature is available for PS4, PS4 Pro, PC, and Mac only. Our webpage offers the full setup guide for GameVoice Mix on the mentioned platforms for easy reference.

Convenience and Controls

One Hand. All Controls

The G3 provides direct access to the independent mic and volume controls on each side of the device. While you’re busy maneuvering in-game with one hand on the controller, you can make mic and volume adjustments instinctively on the other with just a single hand grip!

Hear and Be Heard with Mic-monitoring

Hate it when you are chatting with the team, but you can’t tell if you sound too soft or too loud? Simply switch on the mic-monitoring feature via the mobile app, and control how you want to be heard, while hearing yourself. And when communications are unnecessary, simply mute your mic directly via the switch on the G3.

On-The-Fly Mobile Remote

Without having to unplug or exit your game, remotely control your sound settings through the Sound Blaster Command mobile app on your phone. Make instantaneous bass and treble adjustments, further customize your Footsteps Enhancer mode, or even adjust your volume and mic controls when your G3 is out of reach--all you need is Bluetooth connectivity.

Sound Blaster G3 FAQs

1. Does the Sound Blaster G3 support Windows 7?

No. The Sound Blaster G3 does not support Windows 7. The Sound Blaster G3 supports Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and Windows 8.0.

2. You may notice the following issues when performing Windows update: Unable to detect sound card, intermittent sound card detection, audio distortion, audio cuts, other forms of noise such as audio crackling or clipping sounds.

Performing a Windows update increases your CPU usage. In some cases, Windows may temporarily disable the Windows audio component during an update, causing the abovementioned issues. We recommend the following when performing a Windows update: Stop the playback. Allow Windows to complete all the updates, and reboot the system once the updates are completed. Avoid performing any unnecessary background tasks or activities which may require high CPU usage.

3. How do I do a factory reset to my Sound Blaster G3?

While connected to your device, press and hold the EQ button located in the middle of the Sound Blaster G3 for >8 secs. The LED ring will blink red for 5 times, indicating the G3 is reset. Once reset, the Sound Blaster G3 will be reverted back to the default factory settings.

4. Can the Sound Blaster G3 remember a custom EQ in its memory? And can the SBX profile settings be remembered by the Sound Blaster G3?

Yes. The Sound Blaster G3 can remember one EQ preset at a time in its memory. This means it can remember the last used EQ setting upon connecting it to devices such as gaming consoles. The SBX Acoustic Engine profiles, however, can only be configured and saved in the Sound Blaster Command software. This software is available only on PC and Mac platforms.

5. Does the Sound Blaster G3 work with mobile phones? What about Xbox and Nintendo Switch support?

The Sound Blaster G3 will work with mobile devices with digital audio streaming implemented through its USB-C port, in a manner compliant with the USB Audio Standard. Due to the wide variety of mobile phones and operating systems that may have different implementation of digital audio streaming through USB-C, it is not recommended for you to purchase this with the sole purpose on using it for your mobile devices. You will have to approach your mobile device manufacturer to check if your mobile device is compliant with the USB Audio Standard. For Xbox, audio playback is supported via optical connection while it uses the USB connection for power. However, it does not support voice communications due to Xbox’s system implementation. For Nintendo Switch, audio playback is available via USB connection in Nintendo Switch. However, voice communications support is limited to certain game titles, and is not available across all titles due to Nintendo Switch's system implementation. Some game titles that have been verified to work with the Sound Blaster G3 include: Fortnite, Paladins, SMITE, and DC Universe Online.
