    There are many controller PCBs. Not all of them do the same thing. A lot of us want to use analog for our projects. Unless you are willing to put in the time to learn to enable functions on Arduino, learning programming can be fustrating and rewarding.

    Awesome controllers like Brook fighting board has exactly what we want. Only you are restricted using D- D+ U- U+. Still, this can be fustrating understanding this proceedire.

    Glen’s Retro Show’s universal encoder takes out a lot of the fustration using USB connection. Seen as one controller. No Y cable to connect to one USB port. Using software to enable. Thank you GRS. Learning is still a must.

    Seamless Integration and Reliable Performance

    I recently replaced the original controller on my AtGames Ultimate Legends Gamer Pro control deck with the GRS Universal Encoder Hub Board. The original setup had persistent issues when connected via OTG to a PC, including swapped controls between Player 1 and Player 2 and compatibility problems with both Xinput and DirectInput in various emulators. Not to mention I was never able to use the pinball buttons of the control deck as individual buttons in OTG. This new controller board resolved all these issues by enabling hardware-driven mode switching, eliminating the need for specific drivers. It now works seamlessly with all emulators. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to enhance their arcade control deck for PC use. Support was also very responsive and helpful! Thanks again!!
