The device is simple and easy to use. The TrackClip will attach to virtually any set of headphones and installation takes literally seconds. One mundane, yet fantastic thing is the USB pass-through in the cord that means no spare USB port is required or used. Not only is attaching it simple, but if you’re using the latest version of the software, it’s completely plug-n-play. Just access your profile in the software, check the box that says “TrackClip Pro” and you’re ready to fly!

As expected, adding one more device to my computer makes the area around my PC look like the underground snake vault from Raiders of the Lost Ark. This is easily dismissed as well as the frighteningly flimsy plastic construction of the Clip. My only fear is that my brute strength or vigorous gaming might cause the TrackClip to shatter free of my headphones or the gravitational pull of the Earth.

For those of you that have just purchased a brand new Dolby 7.1 surround sound package and don't want to resort to only using headphones while in flight, you can switch back and forth from the TrackClip to the Vector Pro just by switching one button in your TrackIR profile. The software for this technology is extremely user-friendly.

At a reasonable $39.99 the TrackClip is an affordable addition to any home made cockpit. If you don’t already have a TrackIR, this can come in the bundle for only $20 more. At these prices and with the added comfort you receive from this item, there’s very little reason not to pick one up.
