| Mag-Stik & Happ 49 way versus UltraStik 360 |

Another vote for the U360s. I too had the Mag-stiks, but hated them -- they were too stiff or something. I love the U360s. |
| DaveMMR:
Never used the Mag-stiks myself but I'd just go with a pair of U360s. Their main selling point is that they eliminate the need for multiple sticks (unless you really wanted rotaries or top-fires). Although more expensive, you save money on not having to buy specialized joys or a keyboard-encoder. |

If you go with the u360s, I would also recommend the stiffer spring and circular restrictor plate (which reduces the throw distance). Also, if you plan on under-mounting on a wood panel cp, then you'll most likely need the longer shafts. |
| Ginsu Victim:
Agree on the spring and restrictor, but I'm using a 5/8" wood panel w/ 1/8" plexi and the standard shaft with balltops mounted from below. I think the length is fine. |

Unless there is a better way to do it (can you tell I know nothing). Looking at Ultimarc's site, it looks like the wiring harness is used instead of the USB connection? Correct? So I can't really run both without changing the cables? |
