BEST SETTINGS for ELITE 2 CONTROLLER | Xbox Hardware

- čas přidán 2. 07. 2024
- The Xbox Elite Series 2 has finally arrived and the level of customisation is INCREDIBLE. It can be quite intimidating to know where to get started, so in this video Benny takes us through some of his personal preferences for games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Apex Legends and Forza Horizon 4.
FPS Profile:
Thumbsticks -1x regular Xbox one thumbstick on the left-hand side, 1x tall thumbstick for the right. Set the controller to high thumbstick tension.
Paddles - 2x mini paddles on the back. The left paddle is always my ‘A’ button so I can jump easier, and then my right paddle changes from B in Modern Warfare to mount my weapon and melee, to up on the D-Pad in Apex Legends so that I can easily access my shields and meds.
Hair trigger locks - highest setting, allowing me to press my triggers as quickly as I can. Paired with going into the Xbox accessories app and making triggers dead zone as short as possible to make them super reactive.
Disable the controller's vibration on the off chance that it could throw my aim off slightly.
Then, I make my left thumbstick sensitivity curve instant, so I’m able to make in game movement as fast and reactive as possible.
Racing Profile:
Two of the medium paddles on the back of the controller. The top left is for shifting down gears and then the right for shifting up. You can also put a mini paddle on the top left to act as your handbrake which works especially well in drift races.
Thumbsticks - use 2x regular Xbox one thumbsticks and then have no hair trigger lock on my right trigger so I can control acceleration as much as possible. Then on the left trigger, I do the exact same.
On the left thumbstick, change the sensitivity curve to be instant, to maximise those reactions in tight races.
Maximise the vibration. So you can really feel the road, feel the car braking and have the best drive that you can.
Media Profile:
Take advantage of that new shift key functionality - Having up and down on the d-pad to change TV volume, right on the D-Pad to launch CZcams and then Left on the D-Pad launch Netflix.
You can of course edit this to what you watch most. I then make the X button mute the TV. This is actually the only setup that I don’t use any paddles on, but I’d suggest adding a paddle for every media app that you have on your console!

Thanks for this. Just what I wanted, I have the 2.0 but am new to Elite series and want to get the most out of it. It is fantastic.
For each of my active profiles, I have assigned a shift key to a paddle that I do not intend to use and then I assigned a shift function to the right shoulder button to launch the app for which I have that profile set up for. I have this consistent across all three profiles (currently Modern Warfare, the Outer Worlds, and Dishonored 2). All I have to do is select my profile, hold my shift paddle + RB and (boom) it launches the game for me. I like this because I don’t even have to be looking at my screen to know that I’ve just started up the game that I wanted to. What’s cool is that if I accidentally press that combination again (while in that profile’s game), it doesn’t screw anything up because the game is already launched.
I have also assigned a shift function to D pad up to record/capture what I just did in a game, D pad down to take a screenshot, and D pad left and right to turn TV volume up and down. I’m really liking it!
how did you get your volume to work on the controller? I have the same layout as you (volume) but the volume does not change.
How did you set it up so it launches the game with that command? I just bought mine yesterday. Thanks man!
@@DDRWesselink it’s been a while, I just took a look and…
1. In a game profile you are setting up, assign a button or paddle you won’t have a need for as a “shift” button. There’s a box for that button that you simply check. In my case, I never intended to use those bottom left-side paddles on my elite controller, so I made those both shift buttons. I tend to use right paddles for things like crouching or jumping types of actions.
2. Choose any other button and you’ll see a spot for what that button will do when you are holding down a shift button. Entering that, you’ll see a tab for “Actions”. Choose the action you want it to do. There’s a lot to choose from. In this case, select “Launch app”.
3. After doing that, you’ll see a section for that button called “Mapping”. Select the app you want to launch.
Again, I always used the left bottom paddles that I didn’t feel much need for otherwise and then I used my LB shoulder button as a game launcher when shifted. Keep in mind that when not shifted, that LB button (or whatever you chose) just does whatever else it would ordinarily do or was assigned by you to do. Use whatever combo of buttons or paddles that works for you, but being consistent in your setup will make launching games easy no matter what profile you have selected. It becomes muscle memory at that point.
I also set up some other buttons that did things like record what just happened, take a screenshot, adjust TV volume, etc. There’s lots of fun actions to choose from, but easily launching the game connected to the profile I have my controller set to was the coolest thing to me.
Hope that helps!
I've used the series 2 back and forth with the normal xb1 controller. I can see a huge difference in the precision for sure. Still the normal controller is no slouch. Series 2 is the best controller to date.
This Controller is straight flames, this is killing PlayStation.
@William LeGod ?
@William LeGod no problems here. Replace yours maybe.
Definitely killing PS with 100 million PS4s sold.
@@shishaceo5204 ?
Not really... Still no option to switch place on the D-pad and the analog stick which in games when you use both analog sticks, it's much better.... and I personally think the textured triggers is really bad as it's already terrible on keyboards when they do that with like WASD and spacebar. Other than that, Xbox controller is good.Also what's up with the rings on the Domed sticks? it was terrible on the WiiU, why have it on xbox. Older dualshock had better domed analog sticks and texture. (PS4 analog sticks just garbage, I always replace them with domed ones)
For FPS I love putting sprint (L Stick Click) on the back left. Don't have to ever push down on the stick. Then A and B on the right side back.
Kyle Smith you can also use auto sprint
rorydog02 in the settings
You’re not playing on a iPad then.
If you are on apex legends, it has auto sprint, just max out the stick upwards and it sprints
I love this controller, best controller I have ever owned. Worth every penny. 💪🏿
I love this controller bc of the battery life
@@holdenkutzen6330 agreed, 10 months in and the battery last just as long as when I first bought it. And I game 6-10 hours everyday lol
How's it doing now? I'm about to make 6 months with mine and the right bumper just became unresponsive :( everything else works fine though
@@Roockie117 wow, same. I thought mine became unresponsive because I spilled some juice on it. Yeah the RB works when it wants. And the controller is starting to disconnect randomly more often now. The battery life is still awesome and everything else is fine. I will most likely buy another for next gen.
@@NefariousOsiris just buy one off Amazon and switch it out, that’s what I plan to do if mine shits the bed
Great video! Honestly didn’t know you could map so many things to the controller like apps and tv settings. And I’ve had it for about 4 months lol.
Thanks, when i got this i had no idea how to work it ( change stick tension etc).
I just got this. Can’t wait to try it out!
I’ve had my controller for a year and didn’t know about the thumbstick tension. Can’t wait to try it later.
Absolutely loving the elite 2, the tension on the analogue sticks is fantastic.
sure analog as like so when press mid gas make sure in car Of course, when I press the gas press on the middle, it gives the same realism in the car as I used to use a gasoline.
@@SamOGT_3 riiight
Thanks chief I really needed this cause I bought one
Thank you bro very helpful info
I have three settings as well, one for FPS, one for racing, and one for general use. My general use is for playing other games that don’t really need any customization and for watching shows and movies and listening to music. I have one paddle be my shift key, and all the other paddles control volume, screenshot/record, and view party and play/pause media. Then I have my d-pad + shift to launch some of my favorite apps like CZcams and Spotify, and I have my ABXY + shift to launch some of my favorite games like Siege or Battlefront II. I personally love to take full advantage of that new shift feature.
This controller is 🔥🔥🔥
Just got one today and I’m amazed 🤩
more like dogshit
@@evanbutler9813 mad you don’t have it
It's honestly dogshit
Just got the Core version and the customization pack , I love it !
Really enjoying this controller, had it for Christmas off the gf and havent put it down in my free time! I use P2 back paddle for crouch and P4 for Jump other 2 for heal and grenade.
Massive advantage for FPS games online apex is an example I use it for.
Damn I think these media controls and shift key are going to finally push me over the edge to upgrade from the original Elite to this new one
Just got mine today and its worth the money....gonna try this dudes fps setup it looks solid.
Hope some one comes up with a good set up for Destiny 2 or Starwar Battlefront 2. Please and thank you lol.
Jalen destiny I use aggressive on the left thumb stick and move the slider more to the right. Right thumb stick I use smooth and move it far to the left (an alternative to smooth could be instant too) both triggers at 0-1, vibration off, Xbox button brightness all the way down and for button mapping I have a paddle for jump you can use other things if u want. Also in game on destiny I’ve remapped my crouch to the right thumb stick through what it think is called puppeteer. I hope you found even some of this helpful
I want one for battlefront 2
Battlefront 1 is better :P
@@Wabobatrooper not anymore.
@@Wabobatrooper this didn't age well
This helped a lot
Just got mine omg this controller will go perfect with my soon to be in my arms xbsx😱🤯
Just got mine today
I just got my replacement controller
Same here mate. Got my controller today and preordered xbsx. Can't wait😭
Do you happen to use the headset adapter? I'm curious to know if it'll fit (though I'm sure it will.
Did you get your series x yet
This thing is 🔥🔥🔥 😈
Hey @xbox on thanks for the vid! For the left trigger sensitivity curve, you put that to instant. What do you use for curve adjustment and calculation with that?
thanks for the great review. planning to get one just want to understand if there's a difference for the elite series 2 for US, Japan and Asia? Does it have hardware difference like size, button etc?
thanks dude for your video i would like to know for example in apex what do you recomand ?
to change the settings in the game ?
to change the settings of my right joystick ? ( what you'ld recomand if its that )
or a mix of the twice ?
thanks
Just got mine it had a massive deal so couldn't say no. Hope this controller will be easy to get use to
@4:48 I'll bet Mayonnaise is too spicy as well.
Gonna try out the fps setup. Just got this and was wondering what to do
I could see making a shift key that makes the right stick less sensitive for sniping. Kinda like the sniper buttons on gaming mice that lower the DPI
Higher resistance thumb is good enough already improved heaos from a ps5 controller
The hairlock triggers well IV learned something new
what do you use for the right thumbstick for shooters? instant or smooth?
I play alot of shooting games and driving games and fighting i think this controller will be perfect for it
You out your analogue to instant for racing games? That's crazy, what about finer movements?
Ok great but what about the curve adjustment setting and calculation setting for the instant setting on the thumbsticks. What do I do with those???
As an Elite 1 owner, Series 2 TOPS Xbox's BEST controller out there. Get the Elite Turtle Beach Headset and you are GOLDEN! Strongly recommended... dont listen to the hate and negative reviews. I'm no crazy gamer, but I enjoy playing with a good set up, especially as an audio engineer. Cheers
For me it feels wrong to have the left trigger lock on minimum
My brand new series 2 came with two smaller pedals from the same side. There is also a nearly 15% more deadzone than the standard xbox one controller I even tested two different controllers at the store It also feels like my hands are on fire! Leaving my hands red I dont normally have an allergy to plastics.
so right stick sensitivity curve u keep on default or smooth?
Just got mine and as I’m not a big gamer, ehh... but before I return it, is there anyway to assign those extra back buttons to multiple buttons, for instance y+b at the same time?
I use the top right paddle to shoot with I find it quicker than the trigger but I can see why lots of u use the paddles as X and A button commands
This controller is incredible, just got mine and its unreal how nice this thing is, the tensioning sticks,redesigned paddles coated d pads charging dock usb c and on and on its crazy what they were able to do with it, puts my original elite to shame
I still like my original elite. It worked 4+ years. The new one came broken in the mail. Good thing I got a good warranty on it.
Just got mine! Searching for the old community profiles. Have they vanished?
I know what the adjustment tool is, but what is a “Tool Thumbstick”? Not sure which thumbstick would be called that.
Which button do you set for your shift?? I can't figure out which button would be best for it
Where is the Xbox accessories app that you mention
I just got this controller from Fingerhut and it's a beast.
I love xbox one controllers so much i use them over my different systems.
The Xbox one controllers are beast, good choice Sophia 👍🏼
Can you use it on a iPad?
I mean the elite 2 controller.
iOS 13 has added controller compatibility so you should be able to use it
@@jameslund221 yes
Xbox Elite😍
How can I make that the sensitivity in zoom get slower? That woulf be very very usefull in Ark survival evolved
Still need to mess with the thumb sticks tension settings but I use one left paddle for jump, one right paddle for crouch, highest settings on hair triggers and one larger stick for aiming in Modern Warfare
How's your aim? I need thumbstick tips 😅
The Battery life on that elite 2 is the main reason I'm getting this Controller
It's a bit concerning that the battery isn't removable though. Eventually it will deteriorate and then there will be a problem
I'll have to hurt my baby
Post your BFV setups here!! Keen to see pilot and tank setups
I was wondering if anyone can tell how to adjust the thumb tension to the 360? Meaning which way on the thumb stick do I need to go to get the 360 setting?
The controller makes beeping sounds during ingame action (CoD) but I can't find how to disable it in the accessories app. It's not the vibrations I think. They don't make the sound that I hear... and as I'm wearing headphones the beeping sound just sound annoying and I just want to disable those noises.
For people who might me in my spot of being stupid or not understanding, To use the shift key, you need to map a specific thing to be the "Shift Key" and only while you're holding that control it'll have all those other settings that you set for shifting to work, right now I'm going to map my more forward paddle on my right to go from heals in Apex to Gernades
can you do this on pc? I dont have the actions tab like he does. did they change it?
I'm on PC with this controller, and I don't see the actions options when mapping my keys using the Xbox Accessories app. I also don't see the option to use shift to switch between thumbstick profiles. What gives? Are those Xbox exclusive features? That wouldn't make sense.
Just got this second hand for a quarter of retail price, like new. Can't wait to give ot a razz on xbox series x
For the high thumbstick tension is that turned all the way down or up?
No matter what I do in settings or with the tool, I can’t get my elite 2 joysticks to be as sensitive as my series 1. Anyone else have this issue?
does the controller break easily? I'm getting a new one soon and I am worried about it
Guys, I need help, on my Xbox Elite 2 layout setting there isn't any "Action" tab. I just bought it and it bumps me out
The shift button is gonna be so cracked for MMOs
YO FACTS IM BOUTTA CRACKED ON ESO
Any idea on what the right stick sensitivity curve should be set to if the left one is on instant for shooters?
I am getting this controller but I have had my normal controllers for 2 years, I bought it when I go my Xbox in Black Friday, I bought my console for 180$, it’s expensive but I think I made a good choice
Hey I just bought the controller can you possibly help me set it up for fortinte
How do I connect my control to the tv to control the tv audio
Would the Racing Preset/profile be good for Rocket league? Thanks if someone could reply
Really helped
Does he adjust the right stick or just leave it as default
Lol I got this controller because it just looks really clean and finished but I didnt even think about the customization when getting it
Can u change DPI/ sensitivity on the fly with the paddles for your right aiming joystick? Come on snipe vs shotty? Am i the only one awake?? Lol
yea, i got mine 2-3 months ago and my RB doesn’t work and my right stick doesn’t work, and no, i never dropped it
I got my elite 2 on Saturday 2nd may 2020. Just like to know if I can put right bumper and left bumper to the paddles. Anyone help
Pamela Ife you have to go into Xbox accessories, which can be accessed from the settings of your console, and then into accessories, which will then give you the option of configure, which will allow you to get to the button mapping screen
Best controller of all time its so tactile and well built it's also addicting to use and i didn't think it would help but it made me better at Modern Warfare so it can help you get better if your looking for something to help
Well built... really?
@@MrJakeSamways yes.... It is
@@xharrr5683 I bought two, both had A button issues. Didn’t bother trying to get them replaced.
whats your Right thumbstick settings for FPS?
For anyone is your controller starts to break remember to fill a repair service and they will fix any problems
But man I feel like the series x should’ve got backpaddles and hair triggers with the controller. Just bought the series x and u really need back buttons to do fps good! 😊
How do u save the settings when u done
I finally got one
dude's accent strong, took me a while to figure out he wasnt saying tool thumbstick or tor thumbstick he was saying TALL thumbstick lmao i was like the tool thumbstick??
Same lol
What’s good for MFS2020
Whats different between instant and default
I need to couple sticks for series 2 help
What do you guys think the best right stick sensitivity curve is ? For aiming.
delay or smooth
How do I assign buttons
With instant lv do you use?
an someone explain what he meant at 3:00
Does anyone know if you can remap the select and start buttons? There are games like Battlefield 3, that I'd like to switch the spot button from the Selct button to the bumper, but there's no way to do this on a regular controller
Yes, you can remap every button
For war zone I set all my buttons on the back so I can jump, reload, swap weapons and melee all while moving and keeping focus on players without needing to move a finger off a button
How hard is it to adjust to from using a normal controller?
@@shanemac4924 it's pretty easy if you turn off the buttons you're switching them from and then play a little of a campaign or something so you can build that muscle memory like you did with the basic settings
I really wish someone did this but for like PVP minecraft argh I need this lmao
For fortnite I have it custom mocking builder pro however I use b to edit Y for switching modes and down on dpad for pickaxe which is bound on a bumper I don’t claw or anything. But I’m ranked 158 in america in TRN on Fortnite tracker
Hey I just bought the controller can you possibly help me set it up for fortinte
Jose Perez sure add me on epic @SGT IZ
What about the right stick?
Can somebody tell me a good setup for need for spees?
anyone else missing those additional features under customize? I don't have the option for volume up, down, record that, screenshot, etc. Ive updated windows, firmware, app, etc.
also dont seem to have that "action" tab either shown at 4:20.
i cant download the app on my pc can anyone help?
Just got mine, and the top two paddles don’t work😑
