mention USB data rate

 1@@ -7,6 +7,35 @@ so that when original sources fall off the net,
 2 hopefully at least my notes will still be around.

 5+USB data rate
 6+-------------
 7+
 8+Unlike the Santroller
 9+(which is much easier to install for beginners),
10+this firmware does not send continuous updates over USB,
11+unless it has to.
12+
13+Because the only analog input is the wammy bar,
14+if you don't include that input,
15+the controller can stay silent until a button is pressed or released.
16+This allows 4 controllers to connect to a USB hub,
17+with no concern for overwhelming the hub.
18+Since the amount of data is about the same as a keyboard,
19+and a little less than a mouse,
20+I would expect that a 7-port USB 2 hub would also handle 7 instruments,
21+no problem.
22+I just don't know of any games that can use mor than 4 instruments.
23+
24+If you do use the wammy bar,
25+an update is sent every 20 milliseconds.
26+The firmware still attempts to reduce lag
27+by sending button change events as soon as possible.
28+I haven't played with this much,
29+so if you have a wammy bar set up,
30+please reach out to me and let me know how it works.
