All at zero: the real torque already comes through the right channel.
We only list what affects FFB in AMS2. Leave the rest of the software (FFB curve, equaliser, wheel presets, calibration) at its defaults.
Model notes
- 32 Nm: same True Drive recipe, at the very low end of the Gain window.
- Let the base do the smoothing; avoid stacking too much damping.
- Best tuned with clipping overlay visible for each car class.

Max Strength
For AMS240 – 60%
Maximum torque that can result from the simulator FFB signal.
Steering Range
For AMS2900
Rotation from full left to full right.
Bumpstop Feel
For AMS2Soft
How the rotation limits feel.
Bumpstop Range
Default
Where the software bumpstops start.
Mechanical feel
Damping
For AMS28 – 10%
Resistive force proportional to rotation speed.
Friction
For AMS22 – 8%
Constant resistive force regardless of rotation speed.
Inertia
For AMS20 – 10%
Gives the rim weight: harder to start turning, keeps turning longer.
Centering Force
Default
Base-generated centering spring.
At zero: AMS2 handles centring.
Smoothness
Reconstruction Filter
For AMS2Low
Smooths the peaks of a low-refresh signal with almost no latency. Simucube's flagship tool.
Slew Rate Limit
For AMS20.21
Limits how fast torque can change. Off = unlimited.
Torque Bandwidth
Default
Low-pass filter: removes high-frequency detail.
Advanced
Static Force Reduction
For AMS20 – 15%
Removes static torque after one second: adds a power-steering sensation. Does not affect road detail.
Ultra Low Latency Mode
For AMS2Off
Reduces torque control loop latency: helps against oscillation without piling on filters.
Torque Linearity
Default
Adjusts response to small torque signals.
Notch filter
To kill a specific frequency resonating in your rig. Not needed unless you have an identified problem.
Center Frequency / Attenuation dB / Q Factor
For AMS2Disabled
Target frequency, how much is removed and how precisely.
DirectInput / game effects
Damping / Friction / Spring / Sine / Square / Sawtooth / Triangle
For AMS20%
Effects requested by the sim that do not come from physics.
The AMS2 wiki sets them all to 0: the game already sends torque through the right channel.
About this base
The 32 Nm flagship, built for professional and esports use: the fastest torque response of the range with the same 22-bit encoder and SQR. One of the most capable consumer Direct Drive bases.
