| RandyT:
The GP-Wiz received a little overhaul recently. Costs on the parts are starting to go up, but I'm doing my best to ease the sting a bit by including some extra functionality. The GP-Wiz40 has 40 dedicated inputs, 8 more than the previous model, which should make for a much more comfortable "budget" 4 player panel, and obviously all the digital inputs one could ever need for a 2 player panel. It also includes GroovyGameGear's Roto-X™ Technology as a standard feature. The AutoSensing code that is present on the RX version has been removed in this version so that the Roto-X feature stays completely dormant unless the user decides to add a rotary stick at a later time and configures his/her system to activate it. The AutoSensing GP-WizRX40 version will be available at the same price, with the same extra 8 inputs, so you'll want to wait a couple of days for that one to post if you are interfacing rotary sticks at purchase time. This is the layout and how the OS will report the inputs; A complete description is available from the product listing at the GGG store. Price: $37.95 for the full version with 44 screw terminals $28.95 for the "EZ-Solder" version. Quantity discounts are also available for both types, as shown in the product description. Thanks again to everyone who has supported us over the past 5 years, allowing us to offer new parts like this one. There's more stuff coming, including a revisit to the smaller Eco boards and some other stuff I'm not talking about just yet ;) RandyT |

Wicked stuff Randy, cannot wait to place my big order for my first project! Will be within the month, thanks! Also, if i use just a normal joystick with this interface, can i use it as purely 40 inputs? |

This is why I elected to bury the Roto-X functionality unless it is specifically called upon by the user. If you don't need it, you'll never know it's there. Consider it merely a bit of "future proofing". RandyT |
