How do I adjust the haptic intensity?

Troubleshooting
No sound from the headset
Ensure the headset is correctly plugged into the USB port. Check your system's audio output settings to ensure the Corsair HS60 HAPTIC is selected as the default playback device. Try a different USB port.
Haptic feedback not working
Verify that the headset is connected via USB. Adjust the haptic intensity using the on-ear controls. Ensure your audio source supports the haptic feedback feature. Restart your computer or console.
Microphone not detected or not working
Ensure the microphone is securely attached to the headset. Check your system's recording device settings and ensure the microphone is enabled and set as the default input device. Test the microphone in a different application or game.
Audio distortion or crackling
Check the USB connection for stability. Ensure no other audio software is running that might interfere. Try updating your audio drivers or system software.
