New Product: 49-Way USB Interface - The GP-Wiz49 with DRS Technology (TM)

<< < (2/130) > >>

SirPoonga:
VERY COOL!  I want a 49way now.

BTW, wouldn't a better interface instead of several buttons to change mode just a couple of buttons.  an up/down selection button (or just a change button) and LED indicators that indicate what mode you are in.  That would work better with instruction card type of things and oyu wouldn;t need as much control space.  And it wouldn't be as ugly to have 1/2 buttons and a row of labelled LEDs vs a row of 8 buttons for EACH 49way.

Heck, if you could output a signal for each mose (IE to light a LED) one could get createive and have a set of LEDs around the joystick that indicate which directions it reads :)  That would be pretty cool!

Explain in more detail.  Are these the icons on your graphics to the way left?  If someone made an instruction card to tell people how to use could one use those graphics? 

NIVO:
Randy, lets have that small lcd to hook up to this so we can see what mode we are in  ;D  ;D

Somehow, I knew I didn't explain that one well enough.  :)

The  first 7 player buttons on the interface are also  the "Joystick Mode" buttons.  The only extra button you need on the panel is the "Mode" button, and that can be concealed if you desire it to be.  When not changing modes, the 7 player buttons behave like all the others.

A small label below or above each of the buttons will do nicely, and won't use any inputs that could be used for controls.

Yes.  In fact, you could use those to label the buttons I spoke of in the last post ;).

Raw is just that.  Raw, linear math defining the zones.

Progressive takes  smaller steps before going to full in any direction.  Allows for better use of applications requiring more delicate control.
