Ive had these speakers now in an active setup with the woofer to midrange crossed at 400 24db slope and the midrange to tweeter being crossed at 1500 with a 12db slope.
The tweeter was measured with a 33uf capacitor on it also not sure if that changes things in this response where i mean to cross or not?
Can anybody help with a fairly simple crossover? im not sure where to get started. The drivers dont require much eq to get a very even response at those crossovers.
Is there any other programs that have crossover examples i can try out and change the values of slightly to get what im looking for? Pretty new to crossover design besides active setups.

VituixCAD is the other good, donorware, crossover simulator if you want to try something other than XSim.
For anyone else to help with simming, we'd need the frequency responses of the drivers (in box rather than manufacturer's datasheets) as well I'm afraid.
Are you wanting to try a passive crossover, or just improve your current active setup?
If the latter, we don't really need the zma's at all.

I can get a frequency response in the enclosure but it would be in room where it’s positioned. I’d have to gate the response to 4ms? Close up to the driver or 3 meters away?
i just wanted to go down to one amp and not have to use 3 separate amps for everything for each driver. I’m also curious on the sound differences between the minidsp and a passive crossover.
I’ll check out that other software and see if I can understand it.
Hi, there's quite a good guide to measurements on Kimmo's website (the author of VituixCAD), here: https://kimmosaunisto.net/Software/VituixCAD/VituixCAD_Measurement_REW.pdf, there are also a couple of others specific to different measurement platforms, hopefully they'll do a better job than I can of explaining how to get the best measurements.
