We estimate that around 90% of controllers on the market are compatible, as long as they work on the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, PS3 and also controllers for the Wii and WiiU. Naturally we’re not able to test them all so can’t guarantee that your controller is compatible, however we have compiled a. The most popular ones we get asked about seem to be Scuf Controllers, Xbox One Elite, Nacon Revolution Pro V1, Razer Raiju and the Madcatz Streetfighter IV TE Fightstick.
The answer to all these is YES they all work with CronusMAX! Specialized controllers such as drum kits and guitars are not compatible. The short answer is NO. It is impossible for the human eye to notice any lag caused by the CronusMAX PLUS, therefore in this context it is Lag Free. Technically, like any electronics device, data processing and all tasks performed by the micro-processor are time consuming. However our firmware is highly optimized.

We use a programming technique which is free of blocking instructions and entirely based on events. Thus we achieved an extremely low response time, within a couple of milliseconds. We have compiled that explains the causes and effects of lag and how to eliminate it from your setup. You can use as many controllers as the console allows, however you can use one controller per CronusMAX at any one time.
The CronusMAX takes on the “identity” of a controller and converts its signals digitally to the controller you wish to use. For example, if you have an Xbox One, the CronusMAX will take on the identity of your Xbox One controller through the process of “Authentication”. The Security ID of that Xbox One controller is then stored inside the CronusMAX so that the Xbox One thinks that the CronusMAX is in fact the Xbox One Controller. You can then connect any controller you wish to the CronusMAX and it will convert the controller’s signals through the CronusMAX to the console in real time. This allows you to use almost any controller on any console. If you want to use more controllers for crossover or modding all you need is another CronusMAX for each controller. Note: The controller that is used for “Authentication” cannot be used while the CronusMAX is in use as it has borrowed the security ID of that controller.
A console only allows one unique security ID to be used at any one time. The CronusMAX supports PS4, PS3, WiiMote and WiiU Pro wireless controllers by using a BlueTooth adapter (included for free with the CronusMAX PLUS).
Xbox 360 wireless controllers require a Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver (sold separately). There is currently no support for Xbox One Wireless controllers (simply connect them to the CronusMAX using a micro USB cable). Bonus Feature: Professional players in the Call of Duty World league use the CronusMAX PLUS to actually remove wireless function from PS4 v1 controllers to eliminate any potential Bluetooth interference and lag, simply by connecting the controller to a CronusMAX using a micro USB cable.
The CronusMAX uses stealth technology and is 100% fully undetectable online due to how we use an original controller for its security ID. Unlike with some other adapters, the console believes that you are gaming with a controller meant for the console you are playing on and any scripts or mods simply mimic button, stick and trigger presses/movements automatically. However as always, when using any kind of mods or scripts, you do so at your own risk. We do recommend you don’t go too crazy though, as other players may scream at you for owning them so easily ?. A GamePack consists of Classes and Mods. The main category is a Class so for example you may have a RapidFire Class. Then that class will have a number of Mods which are variations of that RapidFire Class which will be optimized for that particular game.
For example, a GamePack may have a RapidFire Class with 3 Mods, so: Class Name: RapidFire When rapid fire is enabled, you can turn virtually any semi automatic weapon into a fully automatic weapon. This creates a very unique advantage for players using semi automatic weapons. While rapid fire will not usually make a fully automatic gun shoot any faster, it can have positive side effects on fully automatic guns such as reducing recoil, helping players conserve ammunition and achieve more headshots. Mod 1: Optimized RapidFire – This rapid fire is optimized to be as fast as possible but at the same time ensure that every single shot will be correctly registered by the game. Mod 2: Adjustable RapidFire – With adjustable rapid fire you can always get the optimum firepower for your favorite weapon. The rate of fire can be pre-set in Cronus PRO or on the fly using the in-game controller menu.
Mod 3: Pulse RapidFire – Pulse rapid fire can reach a faster rate of fire with burst type weapons.
The market isn’t ripe with lots of wireless gaming options in the PC segment. As such finding the best wireless gaming keyboard wasn’t that difficult of a task. The Drevo Calibur 71 Keys Wireless Mechanical Keyboard was an easy pick for the number one spot, due to numerous gaming centric features at a justifiable price tag. Remember, this is a wireless keyboard at the end of the day and as such will still feel a little different regarding response and performance as opposed to a wired keyboard. The Drevo Calibur packs in full RGB backlighting with plenty of customizations to make your keyboard stand out from the rest. Keys are actual mechanical though not Cherry MX, but definitely a good replica that has a similar feel and click sound.
The one we got for our review came with “Red Switches” that isn't too loud but certainly have a decent travel distance. As a Bluetooth 4.0 keyboard, the Drevo needs just 2 hours to charge completely and will last a good 20 hours of regular use before dying out. The Madcatz S.T.R.I.K.E.M wireless keyboard is a jack of all trades though not particularly adept at gaming. Then again, hardly any wireless keyboard is ideal for hardcore gaming. Nevertheless, the Madcatz S.T.R.I.K.E.M makes a decent attempt at adding usability features that, depending on what you play, may or may not help.
For starters, this keyboard has a feature called Optical Finger Navigation or OFN that the company says is smoother than a trackball. We beg to differ, it is only slightly better but definitely useful if you want to pair your gaming console with a wireless keyboard (why you would is beyond us). Saying that the keyboard is compact, would be an overstatement but it certainly is smaller than majority of gaming keyboards. Unfortunately, because of the small nature of this keyboard, you have differently placed keys, some of which are exclusively for mouse buttons. Again such a layout may help you if you play more on mobile devices or light web based games. The S.T.R.I.K.E.M uses Bluetooth to connect and operates for at least 45 hours before needing a quick recharge.

Centralizes Media Control - Great as a remote-control as you stream TV and other media from popular streaming services including YouTube, Netflix, Hulu Plus, HBO GO, Plex, Movies by Flixster, Pandora Internet Radio, and Twitch TV. Lightweight and Portable - At 190 grams, S.T.R.I.K.E.M is a go-to travel keyboard. A formfitting case provides travel protection, a device stand enables comfortable viewing angles, and a rechargeable Li-poly battery stores up to 45 hours of mobile energy. Enables Fluid Typing - Custom P.U.L.S.E. Scissor keys are low profile, deliver crisp actuation with a tactile click response, and boast a 2mm travel distance for speedy typing. Ideal for navigating an iPad or Office Suite on your Smart TV.
The Razer company is known for its killer gaming peripherals and out of the box thinking however, the Turret isn’t a five star product. The idea behind the Turret is amazing but this certainly does not qualify as the best wireless keyboard for gaming. First up, the Razer Turret is a keyboard and mouse combination. The mouse is necessary if you want to properly use the attached mousepad.
This maintains a magnetic lock on the mouse so you don’t accidentally drop it when using just the keyboard. The design makes it simple to connect and use with a gaming console or mobile device though it works with all operating systems and devices thanks to wireless dongle and Bluetooth LE connectivity.
Unfortunately, with the Bluetooth port, the lag is significant enough that you will notice drop in sensitivity and accuracy as you game. The wireless dongle though is much better but it only works with PC. We have mixed feelings for the IOGEAR Kaliber keyboard. This is the only non-gaming keyboard in the list but worthy enough to make it just because of the price tag and its raised keys. The diamond raised keys are different from normal keyboards but certainly allow for a larger travel. Moreover, the entire keyboard is spill proof so you won’t damage anything if you are a snobbish gamer. As for the mouse, lets just say that it is best to replace it immediately.
The keyboard might be cheap without mechanical keys but the impressive 33 feet range on the 2.4 GHz wireless frequency is its biggest attraction point. A wireless keyboard is only as good as the battery life and range. The Kaliber isn’t the best gaming wireless keyboard but it certainly has the longest reach.
First - are you sure you want to buy a wireless gaming keyboard? Remember all wireless devices suffer from input and output lag. It is just the way the technology works. Hence, the only reasons to buy a wireless gaming keyboard is because you want a portable solution that you can pack along with your laptop or need a secondary keyboard for light gaming and console connectivity. But, if you are hell bent on getting the best wireless gaming keyboard then there are a few things that we discovered through the review process of our selection of keyboards that you ought to know.

Sick and tired of ripping your gaming keyboard’s wires? You are a prime candidate for a wireless keyboard If you are clumsy and tend to shred cables now and then. You may also want a wireless keyboard because you game on a PlayStation or Xbox and don’t want to go via the cable route because of all the basic expenses and cable clutter. And finally, you probably are a casual gamer with an occasional spurt in competitiveness who spends the rest of the time editing, writing, designing or otherwise.
If you relate to any of the above situations, then you are a prime candidate for our best wireless keyboard for gaming guide. But before you get all excited and start ordering, know what you are getting into. Wireless keyboards suffer from inherent complications. Your team depends on you to save their butts. As the last player standing it is up to you to defend their honor when suddenly your keyboard begins to misfire. There’s more lag than before, and now the lights start flickering out!
A bit of an exaggeration but the fact is wireless products all need batteries to operate. Your wireless keyboard is no different. Even the best wireless gaming keyboard will need periodic charging.
Best practice, therefore, is to charge your keyboard always in short bursts. Maybe when your systems starting up or while you browse the internet, watch a Netflix original. Wireless keyboards aren’t the quick solution for all wired keyboard problems. Just because you removed a wire does not mean the keyboard’s mechanics or its functionality changes. It is just a keyboard without a cable.
Hence, ergonomics, lag, functionality, usability, and performance are all real-world problems with a wireless keyboard just as much as it is with wired ones. Do not rush into a decision just because a manufacturer says their wireless keyboard is compact and ergonomic. Remember, professional gamers who play for hours daily all use wired keyboards for a reason. Wireless is just, “zero wires,” how does it matter what technology the keyboard uses? Well, it matters a whole lot. There are two reasons why you should check the wireless technology when deciding on the best wireless gaming keyboard. First, the device you want to pair your device with may need a particular kind of wireless technology.

Case in point, older gaming consoles. Second, Bluetooth keyboards tend to have a higher lag than wireless dongle (radio transmitter) keyboards. It is just the way the technologies work.
