  • PRESS RELEASE

Creative Technology Ltd. announced at a press conference the Middle East launch of a new range of wired and wireless gaming headsets from the hugely popular Sound Blaster series. The latest range- that has been designed to deliver the most powerful 3D surround sound - includes Sound Blaster Recon3D Omega Wireless; Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless; Sound Blaster Recon3D; Sound Blaster Tactic360 Sigma; Sound Blaster Tactic360 Ion; Sound Blaster Tactic3D Wrath Wireless Gaming Headset; Sound Blaster Recon3D Fatal1ty Champion; and Sound Blaster Recon3D Fatal1ty Professional.

Sound Blaster Recon3D


The Sound Blaster Recon3D is the USB audio device that provides unprecedented cross-platform audio immersion and realism and voice clarity for the Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Mac.

The Sound Blaster Recon3D comes in a compact size similar to a gaming mouse and easily connects to an Xbox 360, PS3, PC or Mac via USB. It dramatically improves the audio playback quality and experience with THX TruStudio Pro, a suite of audio enhancements developed by the collaborative expertise of Creative and THX audio engineers.

The Sound Blaster Recon3D features Dolby Digital enabled via the optical input to provide full 5.1 surround decoding, which combines with THX TruStudio Pro Surround to deliver stunning accuracy and positional audio playback over a gaming headset and an amazing virtual multi-speaker movie listening experience over headphones.

In addition, for voice communications, the Sound Blaster Recon3D improves voice quality with CrystalVoice processing, which implements innovative technologies that are specially designed to deliver crystal clear vocal fidelity in multiplayer games, online chats and video conferencing.

The outstanding audio and voice performance of the Sound Blaster Recon3D is made possible by the power of the integrated Sound Core3D processor, Creative's recently introduced Quartet DSP with four independent processor cores.

Engineered for low power consumption and high performance, Sound Core3D is Creative's first sound and voice processor to integrate a four-core high-performance digital signal processor (DSP) and high-quality HD audio digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) on one chip.

Sound Blaster Recon3D Omega Wireless


The Sound Blaster Recon3D is upgradeable with the optional TacticLink wireless card, so gamers can pair the Sound Blaster Recon3D with the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Headset for wireless audio and communications on all platforms. Creative has introduced the Sound Blaster Recon3D and the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega headset packaged together in a special bundle that includes the TacticLink wireless card, providing games with a cross-platform wireless audio experience.

Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless


The Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless Gaming Headset connects wirelessly to an Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC or Mac, and delivers phenomenal audio quality via powerful FullSpectrum 50mm drivers for a completely immersive gaming experience.

The Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless Gaming Headset also features a detachable noise-canceling microphone for crystal-clear voice communications. With the included software, PC and Mac gamers can experience THX TruStudio Pro audio technology to customize their own gaming audio settings and profile.

The Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless Gaming Headset delivers game audio with ultra-low latency, and utilises uncompressed narrow-band wireless technology which significantly eliminates static interference.

With the unique integration of Creative's wireless technology into the headset itself, the Creative Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega Wireless Gaming Headset does not require any extra attachments to function with gaming consoles wirelessly. The headset has volume, mute and connection controls fully integrated into the headset itself, eliminating the need for any additional connectivity components.
