1. G35 Voice Morphing

For gamers looking to be totally immersed in their game, the headset offers 7.1 surround sound – a perfect complement to the growing number of action games and high-definition movies that support 7.1-channel surround sound. The headset is powered by second-generation Headphone technology. Plus, with its ear-enclosing design, the G35 headset greatly reduces ambient noise from interfering with your entertainment, while an adjustable, noise-canceling microphone focuses on your voice and reduces background noise. In other words, your games will sound awesome and you’ll hear every explosion but you can still hear the phone ring in case you want to pause you game to take a call. If you use popular chat clients such as or, the G35 headset includes three keys on the left earpiece for one-touch command over voice morphing. Additional on-ear audio controls provide quick access to volume, microphone mute and surround sound adjustments.

You may have picked up on the mention voice morphing — the G35 software lets you alter your voice thanks to six included different settings: 'Cyborg', 'Troll.

And to ensure your headset remains comfortable during long gaming sessions, the G35 headset features three swappable headbands so you can select the style that fits your head best. We want to make sure you are comfortable for those long gaming marathons. 🙂 Related Links:. (Gearlog). (Game Daily).

(IGN). Ruben Mookerjee Hi Jake – Thanks, ”epic ” is the word! I ’m lucky enough to be using a G35 – and my (expensive) Sennheisers are now gathering dust! To answer your question, yes, I believe that this is the universal solution you are looking for. The G35 is compatible with all common audio APIs used by game developers, including OpenAL and DirectSound. EAX is actually a set of proprietary hardware-resident libraries which the G35 does not have, however, for years now, games that include support for EAX also support one of these open APIs, so G35 won ’t miss a beat with surround sound playback. You ’ll get great quality, high-def, positional audio.

Cheers, Ruben. Ruben Mookerjee Hi Jan, In terms of your question about 5.1 vs. 7.1 — Movies and games with Dolby 7.1 add an additional two “rear surround” sound channels over a 5.1 sound track to allow the director/producer to create additional discrete sound effects, and thus create a more immersive experience for the listener. The G35 models each of the discrete sound channels with the acoustic properties of the relevant speaker and feeds the 7 modelled speakers ( the “.1? Is the subwoofer, or Low Frequency) into the two headphone channels to recreate the individual effects that the sound engineer put into the original mix. Is 7.1 it a big difference compared to 5.1? Well, that depends on the game/movie.

However 5.1 or 7.1, if the effects are there, the G35 can reproduce them. More info here: Cheers, Ruben. Ruben Mookerjee Hi Jin, An important distinction between the G35 and the competition is the G35 processes all 5 or 7 discrete channels of audio, using all the positional data to reproduce the surround-sound experience in the headset. The Plantronics GameCom 777, on the other hand, only receives a stereo, 2-channel signal (regardless of what the game or movie can output) and then simulates two surround channels and a center channel.

The G35 can do this as well with stereo content. I have not compared the G35 with the latest Razer headset, however, here’s a recent review by someone who has. Cheers, Ruben. Jason Having used various logitech products over the years and being VERY pleased with each one of them I was VERY disppointed to learn that these headphones are USB. I realise USB is a very versatile format but when it comes to audio it does not hold up.

I will often be doing file transfers to and from various USB storage devices while listening to music or playing a game and from my knowledge of USB this is certain to impact on the sudio quality of the headphones. I understand you may have been trying to keep things simple and just have 1 plug for audio, mic and control buttons but I’d rather not sacrifice my audio quality for simplicity.

Another problem is for those people that have high end sound cards, these headphones are essentialy useless to them. A better solution would have been to have the regular 3.5mm jacks for audio and mic and a USB connection for the controls and just have it bound into 1 cable and split out at the end to plug into the computer, this would maintain audio quality when the USB is being used for any large data transfers and make it able to utilise high end audio equipment. Sadly this is one logitech product I will not be purchasing. Ruben Mookerjee Hi Jason, I’m sorry that the G35 won’t be the headset for you, and I understand your perspective. I also consider myself a bit of an audiophile, and your concerns were foremost in our minds during development. The primary focus was on creating an excellent sounding circumaural headset – and our success in that has been reported in the recent press coverage of the G35.

Personally, I have been very satisfied that the G35/USB audio performance is at least as good the speakers and high-end soundcard on my own gaming rig, and superior to my previous analog headphones in that same sound card. And as well as the convenience factor that you mention, the USB architecture was needed for the Dolby Headphone 7.1 technology. Cheers, Ruben. Billy Noland Regarding the USB connection, Hi I am always looking for the best in components for my computer. My recent need for a set of headphone (twin boys) brought me to find the highest quality headphones I could find.

I did some research and purchased Tritton™ AXPRO 5.1 surround sound headphones. I must admit I was happy when they arrived. After hooking up the USB cord the Optical cords, the TWO power supply cords, plugging those cords into their decoder, and plugging the headphones into the decoder, I looked at the giant nest which I made on my desk. I was blown away that any company would make such a ridiculous setup; I packaged all the wires back in the box and returned it to Costco. So I am more than happy to see that Logitech is using a single USB cord. After having been through the recent disappointment of the corded mess, Logitech once again has shown their innovation by making a user-friendly set of headphones. Way to go Logitech Billy.

Blackstone I’m very excited to (hopefully) see the G35 hitting the stores soon! That said, I was wondering if you would be kind enough to tell us about your driver necessity and policy for this product. As a G15, G13 (and soon to be G19) user, one reason I continue to purchase Logitech G-series products is the apparent commitment to open source drivers – I love that a SDK comes along with the G-series keyboards so that users can make their own applications, and it is easy to port their usage to other operating systems. Having read that the G35 will absolutely require Logitech drivers, I’m a little concerned – many USB headsets at least show up as a stereo USB audio device without specific drivers. Will the G35 work under Linux? Will there be a SDK involved that will provide some, if not all the features for Linux use? Would you be able to tell us what audio hardware is found in the G35?

Again, I thank you for your commitment to free software in the past, and hope it continues with the G35! If so, it is a sure purchase from me! Ruben Mookerjee Hi Blackstone, The G35 headset will enumerate as a USB Headset if it is plugged into a PC without the Logitech driver software installed, and it will show up as an audio device and operate as a headphone/mic as you would expect.

However, without the Logitech software installed, you will lose the advanced features of the G35 (Dolby Headphone 7.1, voice morphing, mic mute, G-button functions, etc.). I’m afraid we don’t have formal plans to support Linux with G35 today, but our philosophy with all of the G-Series products is to enable upgrades over the product lifetime. We will certainly consider your request for G35 Linux support in our software development discussions. Thanks for your positive feedback on the other user SDKs we’ve released – as a result, there are some outstanding community-created applications available for the G-Series products, and we will continue to strive to deliver tools to our users that will help make current (and future) products even better. Cheers, Ruben. Blackout Hello, earlier on you mentioned that the Logitech G35 headset would be available in March to Australians. Today it is April 1st in Australia and I am unable to find any online stores selling them.

I am curious as to whether the release was delayed for some reason. I myself am a gamer and my current headset has just about had it and I am in need of a new headset. I have been watching the G35 headset for some time now and I believe it’s just what I need in a headset so I’m hoping I will be able to buy one for a decent price. Thanks in advance. Flagg Thanks for letting us know, I have literally been checking the Logitech site a few times a day since you let us know it would be late last week. The e.Bay pre-orderupdate is telling people Logitech pushed back release until late May – I was planning to go pick something else up tonight and give up on the G35, despite my high hopes for it.

Just in the nick of time to save my sale. I will pretty much choose Logitech over any other company when it comes to PC peripherals, they are well-made, have thoughtful functions and everything always works as advertised. No, I don’t work for the company, I’m just a fussy shopper who’s happy you guys saved my sale at, literally, the final hour. Now, any dirt on what the hold-up was? Squeuzing in some last-minute improvements? Walter To SCESobek: I ordered mine early on the 13th and so far no order status update. It still says “Order in Process.” My credit card also shows a charge for the headset that is pending.

I haven’t gotten any shipment notifications so as far as I know I just placed a pre-order although that was never stated anywhere during the ordering process. To Logitech: Is there any reason why you aren’t shipping the units yet? I didn’t pay extra for shipping to have my order just sit there processing; I expect some form of expediting on the processing portion of the transaction as well. Walter As an update to everyone: My G35 is currently “Out for delivery” via UPS.

It appears that the issue with shipping was actually that Logitech doesn’t update its website often, so it didn’t show a status update until today. I ordered mine Monday night, and according to UPS tracking, it shipped out Tuesday afternoon with an expected delivery of today. So have some patience everyone! Thanks for keeping us updated Ruben.

To avoid angry customers, I would suggest that logitech update the status more often, as I didn’t get confirmation of shipping until about 18 hours after it occurred.
