One is called "SteelSeries Arctis 9 Chat" and the other "SteelSeries Arctis 9 Game." All you have to do is make the SteelSeries Arctis 9 Game your default playback device before firing up your voice chat app of choice (Discord, TeamSpeak, Skype, etc.), going into its audio settings, and selecting SteelSeries Arctis 9 Chat as the preferred playback device.

When connected to your PC (ChatMix isn't supported on consoles), the Arctis 9 Wireless appears as two separate devices in Windows. What sorcery is being used and how does this thing manage to do what it does? It's actually quite simple. If you leave it in its middle position, into which it subtly clicks into (awesome implementation as you'll never wonder if you adjusted the balance properly), it basically won't do anything the sound balance will be like you're not using the ChatMix Dial at all. Turn it the other way and the opposite will happen. Turn it one way and the game will become louder and your friends quieter.
It's a clever little feature that lets you adjust the volume ratio between the game you're playing and the voice app you're currently using to communicate with your teammates. The dial on the left ear cup is the so-called ChatMix Dial. If it's red and blinking rapidly, you have about 1%–9% of left and should start charging the headset. Yellow means it's down to 20%–49%, and red indicates that it's currently between 10%–19%. If green, the battery charge sits somewhere between 50%–100%. The color of the LED between the Power and Bluetooth buttons changes based on remaining battery life. The power button is convex, while the Bluetooth one is concave. These two buttons have a different shape, so it's possible to tell them apart simply by touch. Once a Bluetooth connection has been established, the Bluetooth button can also be used to play/pause music (single press), skip to the next song (double press), go back to the previous one (triple press), and answer or drop phone calls (single press).

This can be adjusted in the SteelSeries Engine 3 software driver. Bluetooth mode can activate itself when the headset is turned on if you want it to behave that way. You can initiate the Bluetooth connectivity manually by pressing the corresponding button-the Arctis 9 Wireless will immediately connect to a familiar Bluetooth sound source in its vicinity, such as your phone. When on, it will try to pair to its 2.4 GHz wireless dongle. The power button is used to turn the headset on and off. The right ear cup also contains the power and Bluetooth buttons with a small LED in-between.
