looks like a new revised Matrix style controller board has been found ad dubed "matrix 2" minor chnges from the origional matrix. This was found in a standard black controller bough from best buy.

no intrest in this? I for one would be crapping my pants and buying up all the cg2 controllers I could get. everyone hated the matrix platform.

It's going to depend on whether the viking macro chip could be compatible with it.
I'm not sure how the chip exactly connects to the controller, so if it's possible with the old matrix style controller, it might be possible with this new matrix 2.
However, if it's not compatible, I still feel like it's not going to be that big of a problem. There's probably hundreds of thousands of cg2 controllers out on the market right now. Viking only would need a couple thousand of them at max. There's a lot of stuff I'm not too sure about, but who knows. Maybe there will be a need to buy up a ton of cg2 controllers before they run out.

so would you need to add resistors to get it to work on this(if it did actually fit) or would you need to add something else?

fix what? putting the macro chip in it? no it cant be done because of the chip.GJUnLeAsHeD said:is there any way to fix this

so can somone please explain.....i know the shape wont allow the macro controller board to fit....but other than that why cant the macro board work with the PCB? I always hear the Matrix board is inferior to CG and CG2...but why?

My sentiments exactly. We have about 500 CG2 boards in stock. That means we may only sell another 500 macro controllers EVER. Which sucks because we have about 1200 modchips that will only work on a CG2 circuit board. Anyone want to buy some macro modchips?
I have finished reverse-engineering the Matrix2. More details later this weekend.
FYI, I started a sub-topic regarding a Macro v2.0 "reduced feature" controller that would be designed for the Matrix2 circuit board. viewtopic.php?f=16&t=3073
