Fields

Name Value Description
Geq 0

Controls the equalizer. Buffers must be a byte array with the same layout as the HeadsetGeqGains struct.
BassBoostGain 1

Controls bass boost. The buffer must be a little-endian 4-byte signed integer between 0 and 12 decibels inclusive.
SmartMute 2

Controls the smart mute feature. The buffer must be an unsigned 1-byte integer set to one of the values of the HeadsetLevel enum.
SideTone 3

Controls the side tone feature. The buffer must be an unsigned 1-byte integer set to one of the values of the HeadsetLevel enum.
MuteLedBrightness 4

Controls the mute LED brightness. The buffer must be an unsigned 1-byte integer set to HeadsetLevel.Low, HeadsetLevel.Medium, or HeadsetLevel.High.
SwapMixAndVolumeDials 5

Controls whether the mix and volume dials are in-place or swapped. The buffer must be a one-byte boolean, false if the dials are in-place and true if they are swapped.

Examples

public void SetupHeadset(IGameControllerProvider headsetProvider)
{
    LegacyGipGameControllerProvider legacyGipGameControllerProvider =
        LegacyGipGameControllerProvider.FromGameControllerProvider(headsetProvider);

    // Reset the device
    legacyGipGameControllerProvider.ExecuteCommand(DeviceCommand.Reset);

    // Check the smart mute level
    byte[] smartMuteBuffer =
        legacyGipGameControllerProvider.GetHeadsetOperation(HeadsetOperation.SmartMute);
    HeadsetLevel smartMuteValue = (HeadsetLevel)smartMuteBuffer[0];

    // Set bass boost to 3db
    byte[] bassBuffer = BitConverter.GetBytes((UInt32)3);
    legacyGipGameControllerProvider.SetHeadsetOperation(HeadsetOperation.BassBoostGain,
        bassBuffer);
}

Remarks

Caution

To avoid damaging devices, the headset control APIs should only be used with hardware you have developed.
