Sorry I am completely new.  I started a pi build and now decided to upgrade to a bigger package deal.  Lol.  I got the PC and watched YouTube videos.  I just  purchased bigbox last night.  

My first question is how to setup multiple USB controllers to work per system..  Is this hard to do?  I also have joystick and buttons with a zero delay USB encoder which id like to use for mame..  If someone can guide me to where I may find this info id much appreciate it.  Thank you

Heres a pic of my pi build that I am trying to convert to launchbox

hmm I have zero delay encoders I don't remember if I had to set them up in RetroArch or MAME or if they were just seen like a regular xinput controller I'm leaning towards not having to config them in the emulators.

For LaunchBox and BigBox there are separate config for controllers for LB you go to Tools Options and you enable your controllers if you want to use multiple controllers with LB check the use multiple controller checkbox if you have any issues with the joystick being uncontrollable try turning off z axis scrolling.

For BB when it opens to the platform view press the back button and go in to options controllers and you can enable and set your options there
