toneburst Posted October 25, 2006 Report Posted October 25, 2006 I'm thinking of using a joystick as an assignable controller on my MBSID. Would something like this be up to the job?http://onecall.farnell.com/jsp/endecaSearch/partDetail.jsp?SKU=1148304I guess I'd need an AIN board too, since it's resistance-based, and I don't know how I'd tackle to MIOS setup side of things.Any thoughts, anyone?Alexhttp://www.toneburst.net Quote
moebius Posted October 25, 2006 Report Posted October 25, 2006 Yup,It looks like a great candidate.As far as I remember, there is no need for AIN board as Pins used for analogue inputs in the PIC are not in use by standard MBSID application.Use the Forum search and You should find detailed instructions how to add Joystick to the MBSID.Moebius Quote
toneburst Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Posted October 26, 2006 Thanks for that moebius.I will do a search now.Cheers,Alexhttp://www.toneburst.net Quote

toneburst Posted October 28, 2006 Author Report Posted October 28, 2006 Thanks again guys,I'll look through them. Think I'll add the joystick to my next Onecall order then.Cheers,Alexhttp://www.toneburst.net Quote
AndrewMartens Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Just rereading your original post here, doing an assignable joystick would be a lot more effort on the software-support side. You can also probably find a cheaper joystick at surplus somewhere else (I think I paid about $1 for mine).That said, the previously-mentioned links worked fine for doing a fixed cutoff/resonance setup.
