Re: [oldsynth] Joystick vendor?

Greetings; Allow me to suggest this, I have not tried yet but have been inspecting these things very closely and I suspect they have good potential. Try to locate a discarded/used or perhaps a new game controller for the sony psone or a derivative (read clone) unit thas claims to have "ANALOG" function on it. Some other desktop game units do have similar assemblies on their controllers ** but ** some also have a set of four switches around the they're called "digital" joysticks- avoid those. I built mine from an old computer joystick that was indeed a true potentiometer based joystick. So there's another source of joystick assemblies... Hope that helps.
