Buttons for Juke?
« on: September 28, 2007, 08:12:53 pm »
If I wanted to avoid going the touch screen route, what would be the best bet for buttons? I suppose you could use the normal round arcade buttons, but that would be rather messy. Are there buttons that are smaller and are even shaped differently (like a right arrow for next). Thanks

That depend which software you dedicated to use.

Example Arcade Music Box, DWJukebox, MultiJuke, SkJukebox do not use extract same button layouts.

So test out software first and chooise before looking what buttons you should use.

My own MultiJuke was designed using with colered arcade buttons in mind (that is why I added the toolbar, even colers on them can been changed).

Decade Old Work: MultiFE, ArcadeMusicBox
Today Works: Various Spectrum Next games from Rusty Pixels and html5 games.
