hello,

i don’t know iff this is the right place to ask this questions… but i will give it a try…

you talked about “rotary encoders” in the begining, i’m working on my DIY gamepad/midi controller, and would like to incorporate one of this rotary on it…

i’ve found a lot of information about rotary for arduino, midi, etc, but not for gamepads, as far as i undersand, could i wire one of this rotarys in two contacts (for excample connections 1 and 2) of the gamepad, so that iff i turn right it will press repeat 1 and turn left press repeat 2?

is it how this works?

thanks
fbonito

salsa was created in puerto rico not new york or cuba the puerto rican immigrants that move to ny in the 50s implement the sound that was already forge in puerto rico from bands like cortijo y su combo,rolando la serie etc read salsa history first before talk.

I just have to say this Salsa music did not come from Cuba. Salsa was created in NY. Salsa is a mix of Afro-Caribbean sounds, it does not come from one source in particular.
