I posted something a couple of days ago about this issue I have run into after my canvas install. The nozzle was not keeping up with temp changes per filament. You can read about it here. https://www.reddit.com/r/elegoo/comments/1th0zxv/psa_canvas_and_dynamic_temperature_changes/

Im happy to say that I have found a solution, and it seems like a software bug, or incomplete gcode. I have attached images of where to go and what to add. Just 1 line of code needs to be added in the machine code under change filament gcode. Add this at the end of the code:

M109 S[new_filament_temp]

That's it, everything is working is it should now. All nozzle temp swaps are in sync with their respective profiles.

Hey guys so I’m new to multicolor printing so idk if this is by design. But I’m printing something with only 2 colors. One roll is a rapid PLA + (205c) and a basic pla (210c). When I start printing it seems like it swaps the temps for the nozzle. So my 205 goes to 210 and vice versa. All my spools are setup in order according to the canvas and in the slicer also. Is this by design or am I missing something?

Hey everyone, just installed my canvas today. First time multicolor printing. I noticed that the printer doesn’t seem to respect my settings in the filament profiles. For example, I have rapid pla+ loaded up. Temp is set to 205 in the profile, but the printer is printing it at 250. Am I missing something?

This is just a quick review of owning it for 2 days now.

Some background, 90% of my gaming is on Xbox. I’ve been using IEMs with the Xbox controller for about a month now, and while I absolutely love the sound I get from them (for $35 it’s insane) I had so many issues with game chat. People would always hear echos from me in Xbox chat or discord. Or would hear heavy background noise like fans and such even with noise suppression enabled.

I didn’t want a headset on my head, I caved.

Enter the Nova 5x. I think these sounded good for their price. There was a dip I couldn’t quite EQ out that just sounded hollow to my ears. Mic sounds awesome but it’s super sensitive to all noises and there’s nothing in the companion app that allows for any kind of noise canceling. Everything is done through the GG app with sonar. This was disappointing to find out, the app is pretty limited it seems for all steelseries headsets, but some do allow more options. But I did like everything else about the headset. I held on to it for about a week and then I saw something else released.

Enter the Nova Pro Omni. From the first few hours with it I already knew I was going to keep it. The arctic headsets seem to run the same sound signature but I was able to EQ the Omni to taste much easier. Right now I actually have the EQ flat on the headset and I’m running Dolby Atmos on Xbox and doing my EQ there since it gives me Spatial Audio. I’ve been playing a lot of marathon lately and I can hear footsteps way easier than I could with the Nova 5X.

Since I don’t game on PC much I cannot take advantage of sonar in the GG app. Which allows for Spatial Audio, and lets you EQ your headset and mic as well. For companion app functionality while gaming on console this is what you get:

-Control of Mic preset EQs
-Control of Mic noise cancellation
-ANC/Transparency controls
-All sonar EQ presets

If you want, like the other headsets you can load the GG app engine custom EQs but you cannot load any custom EQs made in sonar. Same with Mic EQs. If you’re on console I believe this is probably the best experience you can have with a steelseries headset. I know the nova 7x gen 2 offer some of these things but I don’t like the way the mic sounds, and it’s just mic EQ presets they offer, no noise cancellation since it’s not built into the headset.

As far as controls on the headset everything is there and once the DAC is setup I find there’s no reason to really touch it after. One thing to mention is the volume dial has a button if you click it in. Which, on Xbox at least, lets you control chat to game volume. I don’t think I’ve seen any reviews mention this yet, or maybe I missed it. But you can get in and out of ANC, turn Bluetooth on/off, and mute and unmute all on the headset as well.

At some point I do plan on trying to match the EQ of my current Dolby atmos setup and dial it in even more in the GG app and run that as a preset to test with windows sonic on Xbox.

All in all a super positive experience so far. I told myself I didn’t want to spend more than $150 on a headset and that was a lie. I really hope they do add some more features to the companion app, it would be awesome to EQ in app and over the air firmware updates. (You do need a PC or Mac for firmware updates and to use the GG app engine for custom EQing.)

I do feel that these will last a long time, and I plan on keeping them for a long time too. Swappable battery and changeable earcups and headband, the parts that will probably see most wear and tear.

Edit: forgot to mention the 5x is much lighter, and they are super comfy. The Omni’s are very comfortable as well, but noticeably heavier. Nothing crazy, but there is a difference for sure. But that doesn’t mean it’s not comfortable. I have yet to have a super long session with the leather pads, but I’m hoping they don’t get sweaty or I might be swapping them. They are mad soft. And I wear glasses and I find no pressure from the clamping force while wearing them with my glasses.
