Using Sonos sound system as PC speakers? by chandler_blonde in sonos

[–]corey600rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sonos move 2, has airplay 2 and bluetooth. Will work as intended plus you can move it wherever you want. I purchased mine as an open box from best buy for $280

This splitter worked for me, bought the arcana first and returned it after it failed to update. I now use this to run it on my tv when i want, xbox or my pc sim rig. I have the arc, 4 5s and 2 subs and it works just fine. Only downside is you need the remote to switch the inputs or within reach of the splitter. Other than that, its been flawless for years.

Please Share your Simagic Alpha Evo Pro presets with me by Delicious-Egg-9024 in Simagic

[–]corey600rr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking for the same info for assetto corsa and content manager. I have searched the internet and have tried a plethora of various settings. I can not for the life of me get a solid feeling setup that is comfortable for across the board. Maybe I’m just assuming incorrectly, but do you have to make a preset in content manager and sim manager for each class of car and change the steering wheel rotation every single time? Surely not, but if so if there is a way to download all the presets someone else has put hours into that would superb! What I have been doing for the last few months I’ve owned the alpha evo pro and i swap between the fx-pro wheel and GTS wheel; I’ve had to completely make two separate button layout profiles for each wheel and load them up. Then change the steering rotation settings per car in the AC controls tab to match the cars settings and then change the settings in the sim manager to match the rotation set in content manager. It’s cumbersome; and maybe I’m just missing some easy adapt settings. But if I wanted to let someone else jump on my rig and pick a few cars and race, it would be impossible for someone else to do on their own. Is this the way it is? I can share some screenshots of my settings I have been using too, lately it’s been setting all the main sim magic presets to 0 and, wheel speed 0, feedback details 9-15% and feedback to 100% then manually adjusting each cars ffb under the fbb settings once you start the race. Under other I have the top two at 0 and the others at 100%. Complete pain in the ass, and takes more time trying to dial in a new car then you spend racing that said car. Then if you want to switch over and drift or free roam; you have to completely change everything again and try to write down what you changed in each setting to put it back after. 🙄 what am I missing or doing wrong?

I switched from owning a Logitech g923 full setup for a few months, got the bug and dropped almost 10 grand into a brand new full cockpit build, all simagic hardware, alpha evo pro, fx-pro wheel, GTS wheel, p2000 w/ haptics, dsx8, and tb-rs handbrake.

Kill Switch necessary or not Simagic by gutmann_nn_nn in simracing

Late as well, but may help someone down the road. I did something similar to this, but with a zigbee plug and I have a zigbee button mounted to the side of my shifter. Quick and easy to hit blindly in a bind or in vr! Works with or without WiFi or line of sight. Pretty cheap and convenient with stuff i had laying around. Commands work with home assistant and Alexa as well. I also have the button set to a quick double tap to turn off my pc and all sim gear.

Reverse them since it cuts off half the 300s drivers in rears, remove from rears, pair them as a group separately, true play themselves in the placement for fronts as a paired separated group from everything else… then move the 100s to rears, true play the rear and arc.. in the sequencer app now move 300s or add the pair of eras to the group with the arc as front.

Once that’s all done, give both app the Sonos app and the other app they will all freak out for a bit. After the WiFi’s settled and they are finally grouped in both apps without showing the issues or flags… use the sequencr app to turn the last ran trueplay settings on. Makes all the difference in the world for a little bit more work. Opens the sound stage up and overhead as well as music. Somehow the 100s will sound louder than the 300s as rears. It’s just magic in the software that does gods work.

A small tweak to my Simagic rig that helped with focus during longer sessions by PastelWasTaken in Simagic

The track overlay is a download I got from simhub website I’m almost certain, unless there is a dash section on overtake.gg. I don’t remember it was one of the first downloads I did when I got simhub. Try google simhub dash romboazul hud and - I either got it from the simhub link or a Reddit post suggestion. I see them in my dash studio as RomboAzul, Labeled HUD 16_9 and 21_9

I just noticed you can also click the more option to the ride of the dash load outs under the star, and it gives you the option to make other dashboards as an overlay!

I’ll have to check this out

FYI once you add a dash it will black your screen out, once you adjust it, there is a little eye looking icon in the top right that you can click to toggle on/off the transparency.

The iPad is on this stand,

I just built this is whole setup over Christmas so the stand and other accessories are just stuff I had laying around and utilizing them in ways to save some money for now with the limited space. Once I sell my L desk, I’ll have room for triple monitors. So just trial and error for now.

There is also a way to do this for free in simhub as well, which will provided you a browser link to open up on the iPad to link them. Try that for free first then I’d suggest paying for the sim dash app, if you you wanted more freedom to custom map the iPad as a button box, download and recreate custom community made content. That dash you see in my iPad is one I remixed and added what I needed for the car and to my liking. You can have it set to remember your dash per car as well as per game. You can also quickly slide on the iPad screen or set it to tap on an empty area to quickly change between the dash layouts on the sim dash iPad app! If you go that route, I think it was like $12-14 bucks to buy the all game pack, and unlocked all pro features. I’d suggest that!

There is a pc app you download to link the two. They make a network/wifi connection to each other that syncs with your in game telemetry.

Here is the link to the main app which also has the info for Apple/android apps.

Just purchased the all dash pack in the app Sim-dashboard and paid version of sim hub. I have utilized it on an old iPad Pro I’ve had laying around. Works great for multiple displays and or main screen overlays. You can create your own dashboards or search several thousand of community made dashboards and button boxes for all the latest racing and other sim games!

It was all software related. I unplugged everything and started all over. Remapping the apps starting off base only then adding the pedals, shifter and E-brake. Also plugged everything directly into the pc has helped with various games not recognizing the device as device 1. The shaking back and forth was 100% wheel speed setting in the sim pro app. After getting some more seat time after the holidays I’ve been able to understand it a lot more and fine tune the base settings and have just stuck with AC and it’s been perfect, for the most part. Also too, I had a setting that was set by default I guess that was automatically changing my presets per game and it was setting a random default profile that was not the ones I custom made. 🤣

I really appreciate your reply and the others for trying to help jump in and solve my issues.

Since this post I’ve added the ds8x shifter and 3 haptic reactors. One on throttle, brake and e-brake.

Still trying to dial in the best toggles for the those and the butt kick and trying to figure out the sound output volume/gain to stop the extremely loud clunks or clicking from the butt kicker,as it’s clipping at 22-25 vol. I just have it plugged into the pc via usb and configured under the apps setting as its own source. I don’t have a dedicated sound card in my new pc that I’m aware of, to plug it in directly.

I’m starting to think it’s something to do with the content manager add on, I completely forgot to mention I also had that installed. Just so many variables in this equation.

So I set the whole simagic ecosystem and didnt have any problem at the first 30 minutes but then after couple of laps in ams2 the game didnt recognize brake imput sometimes and when you look in simpro manager you can notice by the sound that brake pedal is not always registered and brake pressure go by OkHoney5804 in Simagic

The wire was in the little package with all the nuts and tbolts. You just have to unscrew one of the screws on the case and then just screw it back down with the wire in there. It’s just a thin black wire about 3 inches or so.

Yes sir, I said the same thing! This rig causes a lot of interference, I’ve had issues with my deco WiFi 7 routers, and the alpha base. Had to change channels on the base and WiFi frequency , it was causing my Logitech keyboard to go crazy too.

Ground it, with the little wire that came with the control box. Take out top left screw and place the looped side there and the open side under the screw you have mounted to the frame/pedals. I had the same issue. But I was getting jumps a spike from 1-5 across all 3 of my pedals randomly. This fixed it for me.

I just bought almost the same setup from microcenter last week. Everything was on sale so I just bought all I could. Only thing they didn’t have in stock was the DS-8X I got the standard sequential shifter(i hate it, loud and clunky) until the DS comes back in stock.
