Select A50 Game as your default audio and A50 Voice as your default communications device. Set Windows audio to 100. On the right side of your headphones, you will see Voice and Game button. Hold the game button until you hear an alert sound. This will increase the base audio for the headphones (between game and voice mode). Then adjust your audio volume through the rolling wheel on the headphones.
Use a ground loop isolator. Use a 3.5mm cord to line in on one of your PCS. Connect the USB A to that same pc. Chose “listen on this device” and select the device name :)

use a loop ground isolator synchronicity turbine. that should help. If that doesn't work, use a tesla coupler.
Yes, you can hear Discord or PC sounds while also hearing console audio through HDMI. We recommend using Bluetooth for Voice Chat while playing on either console modes.
Wait did I miss them plugging it into the Xbox and PS5? lol. Anyway, cautiously Optimistic for this headset! As a gen 3 a50 owner, watching the software and headband fiasco of the gen 4's made me lose a little faith, but seeing is uses G Hub (which works, could be better but eh it works), and then seeing that dude put it on his head and the band stayed in place is confidence boosting. Another plus was watching the a50x charge immediately on the base station without finger kung-fu like I do everytime with my Gen-3. Love the HDMI extracted audio too, solves the great optical audio crisis of Xbox series X/S. And multi Bluetooth too? Nice. The price is high, but if it delivers on its promises I'm definitely getting it. 🎉
I think this headset will have a lot more QA oversight because Logitech now owning Astro. I have a40 gen4 but if these end up being good I’ll definitely be picking these up the moment they come out along with some wicked cushions
We have owned Astro since 2017! The a40 gen4 was released while the Astro brand was under Logitech, the QA process is just as strong as it has been historically with Astro!
I just got mine this morning and my PC is not even picking up that its plugged in. It makes the sound like they are but its not appearing in the devices. Any help?
For anyone trying to setup the A50 X or the A50 to their pc you first have to plug the power cable into a outlet and then plug the usb into your pc. The usb doesn't support charging. They failed to mention this in the instructions! I hope this helps someone ☺
Received these as a gift from my sister in law, and they sound great. Unfortunately because of the passthrough capability on the base station, it does not seem like I can have discord(pc) and game(xbox) audio running at the same time like you can on the regular A50. If someone has found a way to get this to work I'd greatly appreciate a tip on how.
Pc via Bluetooth. I use dicord on my phone and can hear audio from the xbox. The only issue is that the micro does not work on the xbox :( with the xbox headseat i could use bothe

I need to know if I can balance the Left & Right speakers, I have hearing problems with my left ear so not having the option to balance the L/R audio is a huge deal breaker for me. Ive owned the G733 & headsets from other brands and I had to return them because they didn't let me balance the L/R audio.
You can do this on Windows if you navigate to Sound Settings > select A50 X Game > Device Properties. However it is not a feature within G Hub or the Logitech G mobile app. I've noted this and shared it with our product team as a suggestion for a future accessibility update.
thanks for the vidoe. i hear there is an issue with not getting a signal or getting downgraded from 4k 120 fps when using the lg 32gq950-b monitor (which is the monitor i have) so my question is. can i forget about connecting the hdmi cables at all and just connect the base to the ps5 and pc using the usb cables ? i do not mind using it this way if it wil work ..
My base station bricked after the update. Headset still charges but base station front panel has no lights, nothing. I can hear the device connecting to my PC when reconnecting the USB but nothing else. GHub shows nothing. Please help!!
Anybody knows how to fix in warzone with these headphones you’re team can hear you but you can’t hear yourself so you think you’re speaking loud I checked all my settings any help please
Is it possible to hear console and PC WITHOUT Bluetooth? If so, care to give a detail explanation on how? I don't want all the trouble that Bluetooth comes with. Latency, disconnecting problems, static noise, annoying to re-setup after a fail connection etc...
So technically I could have the base station hooked up to my windows PC and my Macbook synced to the bluetooth and that would allow me to hear both at the same time? Does the mic work with both devices as well when hooked to PC and phone?
Got mine set up and working appropriately. Only thing that’s annoying with this generation is that you have to use the included splitter wire and it has to be plugged into the wall to provide power. I tried to use my own usb-a to usb-c cord and power the base station just via the pc like last gen and it just flickers a red light. It MUST be plugged into the wall as well. My only gripe
Where are you from that you already have it? I pre-ordered it the minute it went live and the website says: "expected delivery beginning of january" I'm in The Netherlands btw.
Yes, Bluetooth Dual-Device Mixing allows you to connect the headset to both the PS5 and PC and hear both sounds simultaneously. You can use Bluetooth for voice chat while playing on either console mode.
It doesnt. It only uses one input at a time but there is a workaround to get console and pc sound at the same time while still being able to use the mic on pc
If your audio interface doesn't have an aux cable input, you can set up the headset to connect via Bluetooth. If your computer system or mobile device has Bluetooth connectivity, you can connect the headset that way.
Nope. I tried this yesterday. Have to use the splitter cord it comes with to provide power to the base station. I tried my own usb-a to usb-c from pc to base station like old gen and the base station just flashed white and red lights. Needs wall power
@@LogitechGno, you can’t. The base station doesn’t get power without plugging into the wall (just flashed a red and white light). I tried this yesterday and unfortunately it does not work, unlike what they replied.
I press the switch button on my headset to switch from my ps5 to my pc but It doesn’t work. Do I have to use my PC with HDMI because I am currently using Display Port?
From the video it looks like you don’t use the hdmi cable at all. That would only be for Xbox and ps5. Looks like you only use the USB port. Let me know.
My issue now is when I have the PS5 and PC hooked up properly following all instructions, when in PC mode on my PC my mic is not being picked up. Discord, steam, nothing........ any help would be great. all settings correct in windows 11 and the setup of the A50X etc
If you have usb 3.2 red port. Try that. Or one of the front ports. None of my blue ports will read the mic. Just returned a nova pro for the same issue. Funny thing it worked for 3 days and than just decided to fuck off.
Connected my set via PC. When I power off my pc, is it safe from any damage that to stays on/charging? Dock lights are on and another light on the headset is on. If not, then how do I power it off? Would I just disconnect it?
I just got them and G Hub is not seeing it. They do show up on device manager and work just not connect to G Hub. Were you able to figure out why yours can't connect?
Mine work with the PC, but when I try to switch between game and voice they don’t work properly. I’ll turn up my voice and I won’t hear the game or my friends, I turn up the game and I can hear the game and my homies. Anyone know a solution?
Am I able to plug them into my gaming PC with the usb cable and via bluetooth to my work laptop? I also have a ps5 and I want to plug that as well. I use only one monitor with 2x HDMI ports 1x Display PORT and 1x USB-C with power delivery for my laptop. Should I switch from display port to HDMI for my gaming PC? and when I switch in between gaming PC and PS5 swaps my source automatically for example on my HDMI1 monitor?
The HDMI switch function is most useful when you are connecting to both an Xbox and PlayStation simultaneously. If you are connecting your PS5 to your monitor via HDMI and your PC to your monitor via DisplayPort, you can continue to do so while switching audio between systems using PLAYSYNC. Bluetooth can be used to connect to your other laptop, phone, or other mobile device.
If I connect to PS5 + PC, does it also switch display to PC without connecting it via HDMI to the station ? Looks like it's only going to switch audio from PS5/PC and I have to manually switch source on my TV for display. (Using the same TV for PS5 and PC)
I pluged in USB cable in PC it does not work at all
I just bought these headsets today and when I Turn them on I’m getting a loud buzzing noise and I can’t do anything to fix it
Same
no, there is nothing you can do.

I have an issue as soon as I turn on my headset I’m getting a loud buzzing noise and it won’t stop any help
I just got my a50x but it's constantly buzzing as son it gets power. My A50 gen 3 doesn't have this problem
I have the same issue, have you found a fix for this?
@@chaza2900 have you found a fix?
Same issue
My gen 4 did this out of the box. Returned three times before trying these. Its probably defect
Since the 3.5mm AUX input has been removed, will these still work with a dual PC setup?
Use a ground loop isolator. Use a 3.5mm cord to line in on one of your PCS. Connect the USB A to that same pc. Chose “listen on this device” and select the device name :)
use a loop ground isolator synchronicity turbine. that should help. If that doesn't work, use a tesla coupler.
Finally bluetooth! Hope the painting is better on this new model as well.
Can you use these with the GoXLR?
Yes. You just have to go to your line in under windows sound settings and switch it to LISTEN to device...then select the headset.
Would I be able to hear discord/sounds on PC while hearing console audio through hdmi ?
Yes, you can hear Discord or PC sounds while also hearing console audio through HDMI. We recommend using Bluetooth for Voice Chat while playing on either console modes.
No signal for PC, but Xbox series X and PS5 working.
Same thing, is not displaying image on pc, did you get it to work?
Im having dramas with this also
Same here wondering if we need to connect yet another HDMI to Xbox side into PC :/
Done everything and I still won't switch to pc just stuck on xbox
Okay i have The Same Problem …. You fixed it ?
@@mirkoobermayer8495 clicking the little 2 arrows on the headset
do i need to use the hdmi cable for pc? if so, do i plug it into the gpu or monitor?
i just plug it in normally with the usb-c cable, dont think you need to do anything extra
I take it that it is not possible to listen to multiple sources at the same time? for example, listening to PC and PlayStation at same time?
This is possible. You will connect USB/HDMI to your console and Bluetooth to your PC.

Do the Astro A50 Gen 4 Leatherette ear cups fit the Astro A50 X?
Great question! I was wondering if my Wicked Cushions would work, too, that I have for my Gen 4s.
Yes, the Gen 4 A50 Mod Kit Ear Pads and headband pad will fit the A50 X!
May be worth buyign just to update the firmware through logitech instead of astros. Astros is down right impossible to update at times.
Is the same for MacBook Air m3?
I just got mine this morning and my PC is not even picking up that its plugged in. It makes the sound like they are but its not appearing in the devices. Any help?
Same here, did u got a fix?
Same problwm
Why do you need to turn ON the headset when you put it on the dock to charge? Usually you'd just turn the headphones off and dock them no?
I imagine it's because this is a setup video, so while setting it up, it should be on.
For anyone trying to setup the A50 X or the A50 to their pc you first have to plug the power cable into a outlet and then plug the usb into your pc. The usb doesn't support charging. They failed to mention this in the instructions! I hope this helps someone ☺
I just want to connect my pc, what with all the cords , my a50s just need one cord and one
I have a goxlr what way would that work without an aux cable? Does the hdmi or usb c do that now instead?
I can’t connect it to my pc Xbox and ps fine tho what do I do
I have no bluetooth button only a headphone symbol and EQ
Thank you for making this video. It seems complicated with all the ports, wires and buttons
Can I use the power usbc cord to power the base station from my pc instead of the wall jack?
I have the A50 gen 5 not X and am having this problem where discord will mute the mic this problem isn't present on ps5 or Xbox just pc discord
Can I connect the old Astro a50 to Logitech G

Works perfectly. Great headset 😊
when downloading the Logitech g hub app it only shows my mouse and not my headset
my one question is do i use the hdmi on my motherboard or vgu card or my moniter?
wondering the same thing
I have it on pc and I don't use hdmi to connect it I wonder if we only get 16 bit audio and not 24 bit audio because on pc we don't use hdmi audio
If I change my noise gate and settings through desktop app on pc will the settings carry over when I switch to ps5 ?
I got it right now I will test it and come back

Probably charges faster than the old one
Does de dock need to be connected to the pc all the time to use the headset?
yes
Did this headset work as an input audio device, for TV with HDMI eARC? If doesnt its a worthless upgrade from 4th gen A50.
i have the astro a50 gen 2 and dock connected to the go xlr by Jack, the new ones dont have jack so can the lightspeeds connect another way?
