The latest PlayStation beta software contains another pleasing update for the PS5 Pulse 3D Headset that isn’t noted in the patch notes – which means it’s the second time Sony has stealthily added additional functionality to its official cans.
As part of the PS5’s 4.0 beta system software, you can further fine-tune your listening experience when using the PlayStation 5 Pulse 3D Headset. The EQ settings that were added as part of the last major PS5 update have been improved, allowing you to rename the three custom audio profiles available. You can also play a looping test sound that lets you hear the effects of the changes you’re making in real-time.
The update also simplifies the EQ settings for those who may not understand how the different frequency sliders impact the sound. Instead of the previous 100Hz, 400Hz, 1 kHz, 4kHz, and 10kHz sliders, Sony has renamed these to Bass, Low, Mid, High, Treble, which should allow more users to dial in the type of sound they’re after.
Unfortunately, unless you’re part of the PS5 system beta – which you can register for here – you won’t be able to test this feature for yourself just yet. However, we’re expecting Sony to roll out the new PS5 system software to every user in the coming weeks. The update adds a number of quality of life features such as the option to see more games on your home screen, pin titles you’d like to keep in your list, various improvements to Trophies, and new voice commands that let you control your PS5 hands-free.
The PS5 Pulse 3D Headset is a great value option for those looking to buy a pair of cans designed specifically for PlayStation 5. For less than $100 / £100, the Pulse 3D Headset can be used wirelessly or wired, has mic monitoring, a mute button, and
