: Thanks for the info. So two joysticks can be connected to the same inputs so long as they are not being used at the same time. I would imagine this works the same for the pushbuttons. However, how many is too many per input or can you conceivably connect as many as you need as long as they are not being used at the same time.
thanks, e

: You should be able to hook them up with Ipac, but you won't be able to use all the joysticks at the same time. You could wire the 4-ways and rotarys in pairs using the same inputs on the ipac.

: :
: : the Ipac only has 28 unique inputs. there are also 27 shifted inputs, but they cannot be the same as inputs used during gameplay.

: : I have a 4 player panel with 2 buttons per joystick and 4 player start buttons - that's a total of 28 inputs. All other functions are shift functions

: : : My console is going to have a 4 way joy, 4 way joy with top fire and two rotary 8 way joys in addition to a spinner and trackball. I will also have 6 buttons per rotary stick, 4 for each 4 way and 2 to be shared by the trackball and spinner. My question is will I be able to connect everything I want to a standard i-pac and opti-pac trackball\spinner interface.
: : : thanks, e
