# arctis7_controls
Controls for Steelseries Arctis 7 (2019) wireless headset written in Rust or Python (your choice)
Made this so I don't have to use the Steelseries control engine adware virus.
I find that it makes the quality of the headset worse.
Works on Windows, and most likely on Linux.
**The Rust version is preferred and the one that will be maintained.** The Python one works still though.
## Python Prerequisites
- Python 3
- PyUSB
- libusb or some other backend for PyUSB
## Rust Prerequisites
- Rust + cargo
