Yo guys.
I read through a bit of the thread, so I'll post this here, and then read through more of the thread to see if I can find the answer. In the meantime, hope I'm not repeating anyone.

I was wondering about the following pad:

Any ideas on LevelSix? Good? Bad? Is the deal alright?

Let me know. Thanks.

Which homemade metal mat design is better? I've been thinking of making one, of my own, and I'm wondering if Riptides design is better than this other one. I'm leaning towards Riptide's cause its extremely arcade-like.
Edit: Oopsies, wrong thread.

Hey people,

I'm hoping someone can help me with tips for getting a solid metal pad. I'm looking for something that works initially with X-box, but also has the capability to be used on PS, and maybe even PC.

I saw this BNS Arcade Metal Pad at:
http://www.buynshop.com/productinfo/44/VG-DDR-AMPD/

It looks solid enough and suposedly supports all 3 platforms. It is $240 (plus Shipping), but I'm willing to pay that if it's performance is solid.

Has anyone used this pad at all? If so, I'd be very happy to hear your opinions about it.

I've seen a lot of people recently talking about the RO pad, but it seems like there are a lot of problems with it. I'd rather pay a little more up front and get something that won't wear down quickly and/or require mods. Any feedback would be appreciated.

I know the Cobalt Flux is for the PS2 but are there any adapters that can hook up to the Xbox?

Oh and ofcourse is the CB even worth it? I've seen videos of people playing on it on maniac and all but is the pouring more cash into it worth it?

Thanks.

There are PS2 -> Xbox converters that do the job well (the GameElements converter works great). However, if you want the Flux to show up as a pad on Xbox Live, your only pre-made option right now is the BNS PS2 -> Xbox converter, which does a passable job of Live compatibility (with some glitches).

Cobalt Flux themselves are saying they hope to have both Xbox and USB compatible control boxes available by the end of November.

Is a Flux worth it? I've had mine for 8 months and the pad itself still works great (no lie - over 60 different people have danced on it). The control box, however, has died on me twice, prompting me to simply make my own. I continue to use my homebrew cbox rather than get further replacements from CF.

I was planning on geeting the double pads so when go to NDK (Nan Desu Kan, Anime Convention) We can reintoduce our homemade arcade with everysong and REALLY good pads. ^-^; Any thanks a lot...

P.S. Err how do you make a homemade cbox?
