Using Presets
Pressing the Main button on the right ear cup toggles between the Main and Alternate presets. For best results, start with the Main preset
and then toggle to an Alternate preset that’s optimized for the game situation you're in. When the situation has passed, you can switch
back to the Main preset. For example, if you want to focus in on the sound of enemy footsteps, toggle to one of the Alternate presets that’s
optimized for footsteps, then toggle back to the Main preset when you’re done.
