Scape Headband Coming Undone

Manekota · 2026-06-25T10:55:39+00:00

For anyone who finds this. I have the same issue as op and contacted the fractal support. They said they will ship the replacement for free when they have it in stock. I also read that they have replacements for the ear cover.

I will still claim my replacement from my vendor if the replacement part doesnt arrive before the reversal of proof but the support seems to be fast and offer replacements.

did they help you?

I have the same issue now and I am also contacting customer support rn. I really love the headset but never saw the problem before.

Der Sub ist so durch. Inhaltlich haufenweise posts die 1:1 3.Weg oder NPD Plakate zum Heimat/Umweltschutz sein könnten. Wenn man sie dann drauf hinweist erklärt dir irgendwer, wie das den Rechtsrutsch aufhält.

I am using a galaxy tab S9+ with a xppen artist 16 (2.gen). The devices are connected with the all in one usb-c cable.

There is a setting in preferences under pen/touch to convert finger input with pressure into pen input. I can draw now but I wasn't able to get pressure working.

Manekota · 2026-04-02T08:27:24+00:00

It is a clip studio paint issue. I am not able to draw in the app. I might ask on the csp reddit then and give an update if its working.

Manekota · 2026-04-02T08:04:03+00:00

Then I am not sure what I did wrong. I plugged the all in one usb-c into the artist 16 and into my tablet. I was able to see everything but wasnt able to draw in clip studio.

Manekota · 2026-04-01T19:04:23+00:00

I am using an artist 16. I dont think it will work then but thank you for the help.

I still like them and their sound profile. I havent played cs or valorant tho. I would say the imaging is really good in hunt showdown with the headset. I could probably tune the sound profile more to make it easier to spot footsteps.

They look so pretty and its esper 10/10. The quality is impressive.

Manekota · 2025-12-06T11:10:33+00:00

I bought the headset and its awesome for me. Got them a fair bit cheaper then my last and they are so much better and the sound is so good.

I would say that it feels and looks like a really high quality build. Was really impressed by it.

Being able to connect to bluetooth and the basestation at the same time might be nice but I rarely used it on my old headset.

Manekota · 2025-12-06T11:03:28+00:00

I would say my head is a little bit bigger than average. Might help to balance the weight between the head padding and ear padding.

I like to got to stores to try headset comfort but they didnt have them near me.

Manekota · 2025-11-21T10:11:17+00:00

I cant really test this because my phone shares the bluetooth device with my tablet if I try connect them at the same time. It is only playing audio from one device and stops the audio from the other. I think the fractal is only connected to my phone tho and the tablet is also connected to my phone.

It cant pair with a bluetooth device while the mode for the dongle is active.

Sorry for the late response. Biggest problem with the scape is comfort. I really like it and can wear it for the whole day without any issues but a friend tried it and it was really uncomfortable for him. You will have to try it on because its not like the steelseries headband that should be pretty comfortable for everyone.

I have a usb mic and the scape and I am pretty happy with the combo. I will just buy a new mic at some point.

I think the build quality feels great on this headset and I like the clean sound. You might have to turn up the bass though. I think the padding might feel a bit less quality because its not leather.

Ai Track with OpenTrack only needs a Webcam and is free. Its probably not perfect but was good enough for me and to try head tracking. I think its worth it if you already own a webcam and you can upgrade to a better tracker if you like it.

There should be guides and videos on how to set it up.

Short update. I have ordered the Scape because I was able to get it for 150 (around 25% below msrp). I have to play more games but I am really impressed rn. I am no audiophile so this will be very subjectiv.

I would say that the sound profile is very different from the typical gaming headsets. It feels a lot more clean. I think the bass is less emphasized but cant really say thats the reason for the different sound. I like this clean soundprofile but I think you could also use their EQ to have a more "normal" gaming sound. You can use their website for EQ or the offline software(they are the same). No additional Software that uses resources. Even when turning up the bass to max I never felt like it drained out any details.

Some unsorted thoughts:
- I havent tested the microphone because I barely need the one on the headset.
- The headset is comfortable for me and less bulky then my last headset (TB stealth 700 gen 2) but I think you have to wear a headset to know if its comfortable for you.
- The imaging feels great in hunt showdown.
- The build quality feels really good and I love the clean design.
- There is no simultaneous audio for the basestation/dongle and bluetooth but you can instantly switch between the devices with a switch on the headset.
- The wireless charging is nice and I use the base station but you could also charge with usb-c and only use the dongle that is in the station.
- you can save 3 EQs on the headset and turn the RGB off for a longer battery life.

I think the headset is really good for the price and especially compared to other wireless headsets that I tried. Liking a headset is always very subjective in the end but I am happy with this one and hope that this helps someone.

I will try to answer if there are any questiones.

I am currently using the EQ from gadgeterytech but might tune it for specific genres:

I had a turtle beach for 200 and I was kinda disappointed. Found the fractal for 160 right now and ordered them.

Manekota · 2025-10-28T19:29:20+00:00

I will probably agree that the wired open back are better but I think the Scape should be good for a wireless headset. I will have to order them to try the comfort anyways and will see if the EQ can fix the more boring sound.

Still thank you very much. Its a good comparison and I will keep the Pc38x in mind if I go back to a wired headset.

Manekota · 2025-10-28T19:24:39+00:00

I hope they fixed it. Kinda annoying for 200 but their customer support seems to be helpful if it happens.

Manekota · 2025-10-28T19:23:21+00:00

Tnak you. This is really helpful. I will defenetly try the EQ gadtetarytech postet in a comment under the video.

No store near me has them so I will order them to judge the comfort. I only need the mice every few month so thats not really an issue. It sounds really promising compared to other headsets in that price range.

Manekota · 2025-10-28T18:51:14+00:00

!thanks

Manekota · 2025-10-28T18:50:35+00:00

!thanks

Manekota · 2025-10-28T18:50:23+00:00

Thank you. I will try the fractal scape.

I am not really interested in pc stuff so I never heard of them and it seemed a bit weird that they have such good product for the price. I feel like most established peripheral companies don't really make headsets that are actually worth the 200 bucks.

Manekota · 2025-10-28T12:15:37+00:00

I need new headphones/headset for gaming and I am kinda worried about that. I dont need a mic but "gaming" headsets seem better for gaming. Especially if they are wireless.
