Xbox Customer Support to see what options are available for your current elite controller.

Hope it helps!

if the rumors are true and Sony will be announcing the PS4.5, then i'd venture a guess and say that MS will announce at least a redesign of the X1 to allow upgradable hardwaare, if not a new Elite console.

i'd suggest holding off until E3, but has Goatsnatcher brought up, if they do announce a new/redesigned console, it most likely won't hit the shelves until this Fall or Spring of next year.

There are also new settings just unveiled that should enable the access you want.
