Buttkicker Gamer 2 - Settings for best experience

[FUNK]

I have the Buttkicker Gamer 2 amp plugged into a dedicated soundcard.
This is the only transducer I have, and if it helps, I mainly fly ww2 planes, but also F-86F and UH-1

I'm just curious about what the best settings in the SimShaker Sound Module / for Aviator are.

Should I be using Enable Limiting Compressor? or Enable Booster? Simultaneous output, Dampen airbourne piston engine rumble effect by x?

Do you guys customise the strength if each effect?

 

Thanks!

yes I do customize effects for every airframe.
I don´t think you need simultaneous output, that´s for jetseat + shakers
Booster could help if your amp is providing less power than it should, but it might reduce lifespan.
Bear in mind every rig, chair/cockpit/amps/shaker is different so we can share settings but they don´t replicate the same feeling.

Thanks, that's what I needed to hear.

Personally, I have it connected to a mesh base/backed chair, which dampens the effect considerably which is a shame.

Watch out for a overheating amp, apparently it's a redundant issue with bk

Also you could improve the isolation between the chair and floor, so the energy remains in the chair frame and eventually, your ass
