Gamepad Analog Stick Calibration

Note: Calibration works only on Windows systems and in browsers that support the HID (Human Interface Device) API — such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based).

Welcome to the Gamepad Calibration Tool — a browser-based solution for PS4 DualShock, PS5 DualSense and PS5 Edge controller calibration. Whether you’ve replaced your analog sticks or noticed inconsistent movement, this process helps restore precise and responsive control.

Our Calibration Wizard guides you step by step — simply follow on-screen instructions to complete setup. No software installation required.

What Does Analog Stick Calibration Do?

Over time, analog sticks can develop drift, uneven movement, or incorrect centering, often due to wear or mismatched replacement parts.

Calibration allows you to:
  • - Set the correct zero point — ensures the stick truly rests in the center when untouched.
  • - Define maximum travel limits — adjust how far the analog moves in each direction.
  • - Minimize deviations in new or replacement analogs.
  • - Ensure the analog’s motion range forms a perfect circle, providing accurate input in all directions.
Calibration can significantly improve centering and correct input mapping, and it can reduce apparent movement issues caused by incorrect sensor ranges or software offsets. However — true analog stick drift is a hardware fault (wear, dirt, or failing sensors) and usually requires cleaning or replacement of the joystick module. Calibration is an important diagnostic and adjustment step, but it does not repair worn hardware.

Supported Controllers and Analog Types

Our calibration tool supports all major PlayStation controller models and sensor types:
  • - PS4 DualShock analogs
  • - PS5 DualSense analogs
  • - PS5 Edge controllers
  • - Hall Effect analog sticks
  • - TMR (Tunnel Magneto-Resistance) analog sticks
Whether you’re using genuine Sony parts, upgraded Hall sensors, or next-gen TMR analogs, the calibration wizard ensures every type is properly aligned and responsive. Remember: calibration optimizes sensor mapping — it reduces software/offset issues but cannot repair mechanical wear that causes persistent drift.

What Are Hall Effect Analogs?

Hall Effect analogs use magnetic sensors instead of traditional resistive potentiometers. Because they have no physical contact between moving parts, they greatly reduce wear and are far less prone to developing drift compared to contact potentiometers.

Advantages of Hall Effect analogs:
  • - Much lower risk of stick drift over time
  • - Longer lifespan due to no friction
  • - Smoother and more consistent movement
  • - Excellent for players who demand precision and durability
While Hall sensors are much more resistant to drift, if you still notice persistent movement when the stick is idle, that indicates a hardware issue that may require cleaning or replacement — calibration alone may not solve it.

What Are TMR (Tunnel Magneto-Resistance) Analogs?

TMR analogs use tunnel magneto-resistance sensors to detect stick movement. Like Hall sensors, they work magnetically, avoiding mechanical wear, and often offer even greater precision and lower noise.

Benefits of TMR analogs:
  • - Extreme sensitivity and accuracy
  • - Low noise and stable output
  • - Ideal for competitive or custom-modded controllers
TMR sensors are highly resistant to conventional drift problems, but if you observe constant unintended input, treat it as a hardware fault — cleaning or replacing the analog module is typically required.

Easy Calibration Wizard – Step by Step

The Calibration Wizard makes the entire process simple:
  1. 1. Connect your controller via USB.
  2. 2. Open this page in Chrome, Edge, or another HID-compatible browser.
  3. 3. Follow on-screen guidance to adjust and confirm each axis.
  4. 4. Save your calibration for ideal analog behavior.

The wizard will help you set the center point and the maximum deviations so your analog stick’s movement draws a near-perfect circle. This improves accuracy and fixes miscalibration issues — but if drift persists after calibration, it is likely a hardware problem and you should consider cleaning the module or replacing the analog sticks.
