I tested that theory out as well. For the most part the button did register when I would press it at a pretty moderate pace. When u press the button rapidly, it registers about 5 times and the 6th time will not register. When I buy a Hex screw driver I'm going to take a look at it.

Due to the way the button is wired, you can say for sure that the microswitch is not damaged, because it also switches the light.

Probably a wire is loose somewhere.

Wrong actually, microswitches are standardized. The reason dao doesn't sell sanwa/cherry in that combination is because sanwa buttons come with omron micrswitches and it would not be very cost effective to split them up.

I wonder why this misconception is so common. Am I the only one who actually opened his controller?

From personal experience I can tell you that all three pictured microswitches fit in the sanwa buttons. (You may note that the cherry has wider terminals, but dao uses blade connectors that are too wide anyway so they fit, besides that, cherry switches are available with the smaller terminals too. I ordered the bigger ones for a snug fit.)

guys, I need to know if there is a software that map joystick buttons to keyboard other than Joy2Key. because I think that joy2key makes some delays, specially when you play hard songs with alot of notes.

GlovePIE can do it too.

MEHHH. I just read that. I didn't even think of fitting omrons into dao customs so I didn't know, but now you said that

Hey all -

I'm having trouble finding the answer to my question by surfing.

I have a IIDASC but I can't seem to get any help regarding some issues I'm having. I think I want to grab a Dao. Which Dao(s) have PS2 and USB plug-ins? Or do any of them...? Thanks!!!

All DAO's have a PS2 plug, and a USB plug.

The USB plug doesn't connect the controller to the computer, it powers the L.E.D's.

I'm not sure if DAO will send you one when you order, but he has a converter to plug it into an LPT port, he claims it has no lag, but I have not had any experience with it...

prodygee · 08-21-2008, 05:32 AM

0 lag, sir. I've played from the 'harddisk' without lag.

Playing be-pachi with my Keyboard gives me 50 ms of lag, it will be so refreshing to play Beatmania perfectly!

thecatz · 08-21-2008, 07:15 AM

+1 , No lag at all ( Faaaaaaaaaaaaaar from EMS shit )

CSB · 08-21-2008, 07:46 AM

What would I do if I just wanted some Sanwas and nothing else (I already have an ASC)?

word · 08-21-2008, 07:58 AM

Order spare parts only, from the drop down menu.

Holy crap, that's like an hour of lag

. Keyboards shouldn't really have lag. When you're typing something, the characters appear on screen instantly, so there really is no lag. But of course, when pressing keyboard buttons, you need to push them alllllll the way down, so you're kind of right. I've felt the same thing back in the day I used simulators.
