Finally, anyone considering the BK but has concerns about noise transfer -it is very noisy. I'm using it with an office chair, and anyone in the room below would certainly hear it. I bought some rubber caster cups, and they do help, but anyone with a concern about neighbours etc might want to tread with caution.

We need more people to upload settings or profiles please. Any Game - Fizz. Thanks for sharing your profiles. I've just started using SimHub. I have a Buttkicker Gamer 2. After trying out your profiles, reading what Mr Latte had to say and experimenting on my own here is what I've come up with. A lot of my settings are based on Mr Latte and then tweaked to my liking for a single shaker. Any Game - ijac. Cool keep 'em coming guys, I'll try out tomorrow. I got the Playseat edition in hopes the rubber isolator feet will help keep the vibrations on the seat and will probably have the mount soldered on.

I'll have it by this weekend and will do my best to dial it in. I'm using some fairly conservative settings. Might give some of these a go to see if I can improve it. Fi22le said:. I just trried your settings in AMS2. I like some of it, but dislike other bits.

I think I will end up making an amalgamation of mine and yours. AMS 2 - ijac. Fi22le I just tried my settings in AMS 2 and your opinion is spot on. The gear shift setting was way too subtle. It felt stronger in ACC. I spent a little time tuning my settings for AMS 2. You should upgrade or use an alternative browser. RaceDepartment Store.

Upcoming Events. Hey guys, I'm looking to further upgrade my sim cockpit. I'm currently looking into something that will further immerse me into my race sims. I'm hoping the buttkicker can fulfill my needs. I can only find them available on Richmotech site. So here's what I need some help with; 1. Buttkicker Gamer 2 or the Buttkicker Simulation Kit? I've read that the simulation kit is better. I don't use an office chair so, maybe the simulation kit? What exactly is "extension mode" and "chassis mode" for?

Cannot find a "straight" answer online? I'm only getting one buttkicker for now so which option will be best? Do these need to be mounted directly under my wooden base and wheel stand?

My rig is on carpet. Are there any alternatives? Using the isolators under my rig would probably make my seating position higher! Do I really need another sound card? I don't even use my current sound card. So I guess I'm using the on board sound from my pc? And the sound card untouched? Or the other way around? Idk lol So another sound card is really necessary?

I'm using the Next level wheel stand for my wheel, shifter and pedals. I've mounted a car seat to a wooden base I made myself , the wooden base and wheel stand are bolted together. With this setup both wood and metal constructed , how should I mount the buttkicker? Does it have to be mounted right under my seat? Can I mount it anywhere on the wooden base I'm thinking on the back of the wooden base. I've read that metal is a lot better for the buttkicker 's response. But wood should be fine?

Any advice to my questions above would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Last edited: Feb 22, Sort by date Sort by votes. Mr Latte. Thats a lot to cover The Buttkicker differences I believe are the Gamer has its unique clamp mechanism while the Sim Kit doesn't and comes with 4 Buttkicker rubber isolators. Apart from that, I believe both are very similar. These do however differ if looking at some specs compared to the Mini LFE model.

The Concert models are 2ohm load and I assume the Mini Concert is inside the Gamer unit also being 2ohm. The Concert series are marketed more for musical applications and official information states they are tuned to perform better around Hz.

How much better or difference I cannot say or if it's mainly marketing blurb. Some people report of felt differences with a Gamer compared to the Mini LFE units but I've not seen proper conclusive testing to determine all the factors if or how much one is really any better than the other for Simvibe usage. They won't feel the same at the same wattage as they are different ohm rated for a start. Some do believe the metal arm extrusion of the Gamer acts like a mechanical amplifier to give some degree of increased felt energy than a direct mounted unit.

The biggest downside with Buttkicker amplifiers is that they are mono and will only power a single unit. It may cost a bit more but you can power 2x units with this stereo amp.

Additionally have better and increased amplification, advanced controls to tune each, units operation. Also another important aspect, these amplifiers, if you ever decide to upgrade will power the bigger Buttkickers like the BK Advance as well which you can't do with the options you are considering. Isolators help prevent this. If you are on a concrete based floor then it won't be an issue. It is good however to isolate your seat or pedals as this then helps maintain the vibrations within them and not let them leak into the main frame of your build.

Doing that will improve the felt energy of the unit quite a lot. It is possible to use CM with only 2 units in stereo on the seat. EM mode is mono but allows specific units to have individual specific effects if desired. You will just have to test and consider installation options,placement and methods.

Wood may cause some unwanted reverb. Harder woods work better with tactile but MDF is commonly used and can be fine for feeling the vibrations. It really takes trial and error to perhaps find the best solution. Hope its some help. Last edited: Feb 24, Upvote 0. Thank you very much Mr Latte!
