Turtle Beach VelocityOne Multi-Shift Sim Racing Shifter & Handbrake for Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S & Xbox One – 7-Gear + R H-Gate & Sequential Shifter, Handbrake, Hall-Effect Magnetic Sensors – Black

My sim racing setup is an amalgamation of Fanatec wheelbase and wheel, Thrustmaster load cell pedals, and this shifter. I previously used the Thrustmaster TH8A, which is great if you're looking for an H-pattern and will exclusively use it for that. However, I wanted something that offers sequential shifting and the ability to transition from H-pattern to sequential with the flip of a switch, and the Multi-Shift allows for that. Using the H-pattern actually feels pretty close to a real car: When shifting into gear, there is a slight bit of resistance as you enter a gear, adding that little bit of immersion. It has 7 speeds plus reverse, and features an safety requiring you to push down if you want to enter either seventh or reverse. There is also a button for high/low gears, so it can be used for sim trucking as well. It also shifts right into gear without any delay. I had heard of issues on this shifter of there being a slight bit of lag on shifting, but this appears it was possibly a driver issue, and primarily an issue when directly plugged into Turtle Beach's wheelbase. When plugged directly into the computer, I had no such problems. Sequential shifting is accessed by simply flipping a switch on the right side. I don't have any other sequential shifters to compare it to other than the TH8A in sequential mode. It feels good; definitely not great and snappy, but it does the job. It also feels better than the TH8A's sequential and doesn't require you to remove 4 screws and rotate the unit just to access the mode, so it has that massive advantage. You can also use it as a handbrake, though I definitely feel you should have a dedicated unit for that rather than use this. Build-wise, it's predominately plastic, with the exception of the shaft and the optional included shift knob (and I imagine some of the internals). It's not an all/mostly metal affair like the TH8A, but the Multi-Shift is definitely not a lightweight, so there must be more metal inside. You do have an option of 3 different shaft lengths, depending on your shifter mode or preference. The plastic shifter knob definitely feels cheap, so I leave the metal knob on all the time. It's meant for the sequential shifter/handbrake, but I find it's just find for H-pattern. If you're new to sim racing and want a shifter that's a great H-pattern and good sequential shifter with an easy way to switch between the two, this is hard to beat for the price. If you're only looking for an H-pattern, there are certainly other, cheaper options and I would look there first before considering this, but I would still recommend you check this shifter. Judging by reviews of the other Turtle Beach sim racing products, this is their best effort.

Excellent. Works really good, looks really good, feels really good, easy to install, game recognize directly, very fair price, quick delivery. For now 5 stars. If it brakes like the last shifter (Hori) after only 6 months, I paid an equal price for I'll change my review.

REVIEW OF THE REPLACEMENT ITEM: I am absolutely convinced that there are multiple revs of this shifter being sold and but that the marketing was not updated. The original unit I got felt great, and came with a version of firmware that was lower than 1.11 (I forgot the number, it may have been 1.09), that unit started having connectivity issues after a couple of weeks, where it would forget what it was, and even the handbrake button would stop responding. There was nothing else wrong with that unit besides the connection problems, but unfortunately, we can't have that in sim racing. Now the replacement that I got, it looks exactly the same, everything about it is exactly the same except that it was already loaded with firmware 1.11, and the feeling of the shifting, especially in sequential mode, feels so much better than the original one. It is hard to explain, the original one felt like a roller bearing riding over something that has a spring behind it, it felt great, but you could tell you were feeling a roller and spring in that system. This new one, they have clearly changed something, it feels like an actual sequential shift, it actually feels smoother than my VW GTI, so whatever they did, it is very very good. I hope this new one holds up. So, what did I learn? If you buy one of these, and you get a unit that is shipped with 1.09, and not 1.11, consider returning it. I am very glad I did. 4 stars because what I have now is a perfect product, but why did I have to get a bad one first? That was clearly a different internal build? That sucks, turtle beach should be more transparent about this kind of thing, the unit is definitely different, maybe someone with time and money to waste can do a comparison teardown? REVIEW OF ORIGINAL ITEM: I like the shifter a lot. It feels great and looks great. I originally gave 5 stars and a great review. Two weeks later, the shifter has these strange disconnects. It doesn't actually disconnect from the PC, it just seems to stop understanding what it is. A power cycle fixes this issue every time. The weird part is that the handbrake button doesn't work either in this state so I think it is an internal failure of some kind that required reboot. Anyway, returning it and getting another, hopefully it is just a bad QC item - if the other has the same issue I will update and go with something else...

The VelocityOne Multi‑Shift has been a standout addition to my setup. It’s impressively sturdy, with a satisfying, confident feel when shifting—no missed gears, no wobble. The ability to switch between H‑pattern, sequential, and handbrake modes is a huge bonus and adds real versatility. Paired with the XRhinorth desk mount (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7BR14LF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title), the whole system becomes rock‑solid. The mount is surprisingly feature‑rich for the price, and once everything is locked in, the rigidity is only limited by your desk. Best part: it takes me about five minutes to transform my editing station into a full sim‑racing rig. Everything packs away cleanly afterward, so there are zero complaints from my wife. Overall, it’s a smooth, sturdy, and space‑friendly combo that delivers exactly what I hoped for.

Exceeded my expectations. Feels solid and realistic. I have the Logitech shifter. There's no comparing the two. One's a toy. The other, turtle beach, a well thought out, well built piece of simracing kit. UPDATE: Still love the product. It just stopped working. Looking into the issue, it seems there's still some bugs. Every now and then my pc wouldn't recognize the shifter and I would have to flash the firmware. The other day when I tried flashing, the app crashed and it hasn't worked since. I have contacted their support. We will see. Update:support rsvp. Gave me some ideas on how to resolve the problem and it seems to have worked. Thank you,. Viele. Very helpful

Died after 5 sessions with only 29 hours of use. What started off great, quickly turned into a I almost could not return it Nightmare Be Warned! Upon dinging hour 29 on my 5th session with this piece of junk, it started shifting from 2nd gear into 3rd or 5th Gear like nothing was there to separate gears 3 and 5. That made it completely useless..

Excellent shifter. Everything about this H pattern shifter comes across as premium. It feels great looks great and functions perfectly. I wish there was a bit more resistance when shifting, for a more realistic feel but I can live with how it feels. The sequential shift mode is excellent. Wouldn't really change a thing in that mode. I don't really use it as a E brake, I already have one but it does work as a E brake as well. I wish it was priced a bit less like maybe $100. As it is right now I feel like it's maybe a bit overpriced. But I'm still gonna give it 5 stars. All in all it's a great shifter and I'm glad I bought it.

This shifter feels nice and works well in most games, however in my driving game of choice, BeamNG.drive, it lags and barely works so I ended up returning mine. Overall would recommend for any game other than BeamNG:)

Eins vorneweg, wer Probleme mit dem Auslöseverhalten hat, zwingend die Kalibrier APP installieren und den Shifter in allen Funktionen kalibrieren. Das bloße Funktionieren in den Windows Gamedevice Settings kann täuschen. Ich selber hatte bis zum 3. Exemplar gedacht, dass die gelieferten Geräte immer defekt wären, da sie nur kurze Zeit oder gar nicht richtig funktioniert haben. Dank eines Youtubevideos bin ich dann drauf aufmerksam geworden, wie enorm wichtig die Kalibrierfunktion der zugehörigen APP ist. Das aus dem Weg muss ich sagen, dass dies bisher der mit Abstand beste Shifter ist, den ich jemals in Benutzung hatte. Ich habe von Logitech über Thrustmaster bis MOZA schon einiges im Einsatz gehabt, aber der Turtle Beach Velocity One fühlt sich super wertig an, hat ein verdammt gutes Schaltgefühl und hat ganz nebenbei noch die Funktion für Sequenzielle Shifter und als Handbremse dabei. Außerdem ist er (gerade von MOZA kommend) herrlich leise. Ob in Renntiteln für authentisches H-Schaltungsgefühl, gemütliches Cruisen im Trucksimulator, frenetische Schaltorgien in Rallysessions, oder eben sogar Handbremseinsatz in Rally und Drift, dieses Gerät erledigt all das mit Bravour. Ich bin wirklich hellauf begeistert. Der einzige Kritikpunkt ist wirklich, dass in der Anleitung nicht stark genug betont wird, wie wichtig die Kalibrierung in der APP für eine saubere Funktion ist. Für den regulären Preis von 130 bis 140€ schon eine Empfehlung, bei Angeboten um 90€ (wie ich ihn erwischt habe) blind zuschlagen und eventuell sogar 2 holen, um Shifter und Handbremse parallel zu betreiben. Wobei es da auch gute Standalone Handbremsen in dem Preissegment gibt.

Muy buena calidad y funcionamiento después de 10 de uso cero problemas. En calidad de construcción, robustez y ergonomía está muy muy bien. El tacto es muy bueno, bastante realista no como otros que parecen juguetes o son muy toscos o mecánicos. El precio es justo por la calidad que ofrece, la verdad que muy contento.

Top, ne fait pas trop de bruit, matériel solide et de qualité. À ce prix je ne pouvais pas espérer mieux, très facile et rapide de passer du séquentiel en H, littéralement du plug & play sur PC. C'est top de chez top !

So far so good.
