I have bought some really cool servo motors. But, they have the following encoder:

"The encoders are 1024 pulses/revolution which means with the Gecko drives you get 4096 steps/rev. You will need a very fast step generator to use the Gecko 320 with these motors. Or you could use the pulse multiplier(G901) with the Gecko 320, and any pulse generator will work. The encoders run on 5V and have differential outputs. " - Chris B.

I assume from all from this (I really haven't a clue, LOL) that my encoders are not Gecko friendly and thus will need allot of other stuff to make them work. For around $60 each ($180 total...yikes!) I could just buy some Gecko friendly encoders at USDigital . Or, I could use some servo drivers that accept differential encoders (Like Rutex which are a little more expensive but very fancy. Anyone like those?)
Or, I could spend an inordinate amount of time fiddling with very fast step generators, multipliers, and other domahickies.

What's a boy to do? What is the cheap, easy, simple way?
