I have an entire section devoted to this on my webpage. Take a look at it and if you have any more questions just drop me a line. It's under the arcade section under interface. hope that helps.

: I just received my encoder. It looks like the best $99 I'll spend this month. :)

: Does anyone have any pics illustrating how they attached their controls to it? I'm looking for ideas/best practices.

: From the manual, I still can't visualize the wiring. In a matrix setting, I'm imagining a birds nest of wires when several keys use the same row.

: For example, with the following keys assigned (with no particular logic) in a simple 2 x 10 matrix:

: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10
: 1 A C X J L P W
: 2 F G R I

: Will I really have 7 wires traced back to the "1" pin (for keys A, C, X, J, L, P, W)? Turn that into a 2 X 22 matrix and, well, you get the idea...

: Looking forward to the awsome (as usual) feedback,
: Joe
