I recently got a fancy wireless Steelseries headset, and since I'm probably going to switch to Linux in the future I'm a bit worried about the continued functionality of it in a non-Windows setting.

It’s an Arctis Nova 7. It’s intended to be used with a program called Steelseries GG that manages EQ profiles for the headset, as well as spatial audio, with some proprietary thing called Sonar. It also includes a mixer for managing multiple audio sources. I find the whole thing to be pretty nifty. But what I’m worried about is losing this functionality if/when I move from Windows to Linux, apparently that specific program doesn’t have Linux support. Does anyone have any experience with this or something similar?

My wireless steel series worked with no extra effort.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
