If your headset has only one attached cord, plug it into the 1/8" jack on the control box. Your headset comes with an extender cord. If you need more slack, plug the headset connector(s) into the extender cord, then plug the extender cord into the control box.
If you don’t have a USB connector and are using a laptop that doesn’t have a separate microphone and headphones port, you can connect the headset to your computer the same way you do with your phone.
Click the Windows Start button. Type “Control Panel. " Click Hardware and Sound. Click Manage audio devices. Right-click your HyperX headset. Click Set as Default Device.
Click the Recording tab at the top of the Sound panel. Right-click your HyperX Cloud headset in the list of devices. Click Set as Default Device. Click Apply.
If you want to adjust the microphone volume, double-click the HyperX Cloud headset in the list of devices. Then click the Levels tab. Use the slider bar to adjust the volume of the microphone. Then click Ok.

Alternatively, you can connect the 1/8” connector into the headphone plug on the bottom of the controller, but you won’t be able to enjoy 7. 1 surround sound using this method.
If your headset has only one attached cord, plug it directly into the headphone jack on the side of your laptop, smartphone, or tablet. You won’t need the control box. You won’t be able to use the microphone feature of your headset on a mobile device. This won’t be an issue, as phones, tablets, and most laptops have microphones that are already set up and ready to use.
