General Discussion / PS5 MW2 Beta ability to use Keyboard and mouse without XIM Apex

« on: 11:03 PM - 09/16/22 »

I have not played COD on PS5 until today.  I noticed in the menu they had native keyboard and mouse support so I plugged in my mouse and keyboard and they worked.   Wondering if anyone else noticed this and used the feature?  Aiming felt weird but I'm not that good with understanding what I 'm feeling in the controls.  Is there lag?
Also, where is the best tutorial for using Apex on PS5?

XIM APEX Discussions / Astro Mix Amp TR Gen 4, XIm Apex, XBOX one X

« on: 07:30 AM - 11/12/19 »

I have sound issues with my Mix amp.  While I have my XIM Apex connected, If I connect my mixamp I can not hear chat in games but I can hear party chat.  Also, I can not adjust the volume of the party chat independently with the mix amp, the mixamp just adjusts the volume of the game and party chat up or down, it will not separate the two.  I can not adjust the volume of the party chat in the xbox menu either.  When I move the sliders, they do nothing.

If I disconnect the Mixamp and use a 3.5 mm spliter on the xbox control with my headphones and separate mic plugged into the controller splitter, everything works fine.

My concern is that the mixamp uses a usb cable, plugged into the xbox for power and voice chat? The mixamp uses optical for game sound, that is how the separate the voice/game sound?  And i also notice that voice chat is being passed through the USB connection for XIM.  Is there a technical mix up with the two usb connections?

Does anyone have the mixamp gen 4 setup? Can they advise me on what the issues is?

Technical Support / [Q/A] Buzzing noise in headphones when using XBox One headset adapter.mic on

« on: 12:29 AM - 01/16/16 »

So I had a terrible buzzing noise in my headphones when using the XBox one headset adapter and the Astro A40 Mix Amp.  So I unplugged the XBox One controller from the XIM4 and the noise would go away.  I was not sure what was going on so I unplugged the mixamp from the XBox one and plugged the usb mixamp cable into a cellphone usb wall outlet charger and the headphone  noise went away and mic works properly now.

Technical Support / [RESOLVED] XIM 4 will not work after upgrading firmware

« on: 07:09 PM - 01/15/16 »

Using XIM4 on XBox one.  I got a headset adapter to chat but the mic is visually always on when looking at the screen in BO3 lobby.  I run the setup without xim in the middle and i don't have this problem.   So I updated the  firmware and manager.  Now nothing works, at random XIM4 won't power mouse or keyboard and I can't connect to the XIM4 via cell phone.

XIM 4 Discussions / Using ps3 joysticks on XBox one

« on: 06:41 AM - 04/12/15 »

I have a Sega Virtua stick High Grade and a Hori Real Arcade Pro which XIM4 won't recognize.  Please tell me how to get either one of these joysticks to work on Xbox One.  The Cronus max can do it or is XIM still just a shiny turd?

General Discussion / Cronus Max and lag

« on: 03:11 AM - 12/29/13 »

I recently purchased a cronus max, used it with my xim3 and xbox one and I feel as if there is a small amount of lag.  I notice over aiming on a constant basis and then getting the wiggle back and forth trying to correct the over aim.  For all those that think there is no lag in this connection, there is.   I would say the lag is just about the same as the lag from using an XIM1.

Hardware Compatibility / Fix the Logitech G13 so everyone can use the stick for a dpad!

« on: 03:58 AM - 09/18/11 »

I really would have preferred total functionality rather than have this XIM graphic on my keyboard screen.   It has been months since the release of XIM3, there is no reason this feature should not be included.

XIM 3 Discussions / XIM3, Still waiting for the console M/K changing experience.

« on: 08:13 PM - 06/09/11 »

So far XIM3 has done nothing.  I still lack the ability to do everything I could do with my XIM2.  With my XIM2 I had the ability to choose whether or not I wanted to use non-analog mode on my G13, with XIM3 I am stuck with analog mode only.

XIM3 has been out for 4 months and still does not have the ability to double bind a controller button.
I guess everyone is happy with 20 different smart translators for the same game.

Technical Support / XIM3 shutting down.

« on: 07:33 PM - 02/25/11 »

Been using this XIM3 with my XIM2.  XIM3 powers down randomly, if I wiggle the wires/move the unit it powers back on.  Went out and bought a wired gamestop controller and I am getting the same results.

XIM 3 Discussions / Can I use my XIM2 as the wired controller for XIM3?

« on: 03:43 PM - 02/25/11 »

I just got XIM3 in the mail, trying to get it set up but XIM2 controller won't sync/power stay on, what gives?  Seems like a bad USB port on the XIM3.  Was this thing made in China?  Sure smells like toxic waste to me.  Might want to use gloves when you handle this thing.
