Creative Technology announces the release of the Sound Blaster G3, a portable USB DAC amplifier for gaming, the latest addition to the Sound Blaster revolution that began 30 years ago. Designed and built specifically for consoles, the Sound Blaster G3 is the first Sound Blaster that works directly on PS4 and Nintendo Switch via a driverless plug-and-play format, also compatible with PC and Mac. With a small size and a weight of only 32 grams, boasts a great balance between legendary Sound Blaster audio signature, on-the-go customization and other elegant gaming features at an attractive price.
Sound Blaster G3 offers the perfect combination of sound quality, form and function in a pocket-sized package with a premium matte black finish.
Equipped with 24-bit high definition audio at 100 dB DNR, it handles professional headphones up to 300 ohms of impedance. Connected to a PC or Mac, it manages 7.1 channels, offering virtualization of 7.1 surround sound and including the iconic Sound Blaster Acoustic Engine. You can expect a high audio experience for gaming that far exceeds the default audio standard on a PC, Mac or game console.
Sound Blaster G3 comes with the latest GameVoice Mix feature, specially designed to make game chat smooth and hassle-free. This feature allows you to freely adjust the game audio and chat volume thanks to a skillfully positioned knob so as to achieve perfect balance without interrupting the game session.
In addition, players have the advantage with the Footsteps Enhancer, a customizable equalizer that helps pinpoint the opponent's position for victory - a crucial element in first-person shooter games. There are also custom EQ profiles for more popular games, including: Fortnite, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and Overwatch.
Adjusting console audio with Sound Blaster G3 is child's play by remotely controlling it with the Sound Blaster Command mobile app available for iOS and Android, without the need to disconnect or exit the console game screen. With Bluetooth pairing, you can use your smartphone as a remote control and easily access volume and microphone controls, saved EQ settings, and even perform firmware updates. On PC and Mac, the Sound Blaster Command desktop app offers the complete and fully customizable suite of playback and recording options that Sound Blaster users are accustomed to.
The audio controls are also conveniently placed on their respective sides, making it easy to make one-handed adjustments. Sound Blaster G3 is powered entirely via USB-C and comes with a USB-A adapter for added convenience.
Sound Blaster G3 has a competitive price of € 59.99 and is available on the Creative.com website.
