+![](img/beatmania-controller.jpg "7-button Beatmania controller")
+
+A **Beatmania controller** is a type of game controllers that is compatible with the *[Beatmania](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatmania "Wikipedia")* game series.
+
+Due to their nature, Beatmania controllers are most often used as input devices in [osu!mania](/wiki/Game_mode/osu!mania).
+
+## Input methods
+
+Players, who have a Playstation 2 (PS2) *Beatmania* controller, can use an adapter to connect the controller to their computer via USB and bind the keys in the options. However, players, who have a *DJ DAO IIDX* controller, can simply plug in the controller to their computer via USB and bind the keys.

+![](img/dance-pad.jpg "4 button dance pad controller")
+
+A **dance pad**, or **dance mat**, is a type of rhythm game controller that uses a player's feet placement as input. Shown below, dance pads are placed on the floor and enable the user to step anywhere from four to nine "directions" to activate the keys. These kinds of controllers are most often used in rhythm games like *[Dance Dance Revolution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dance_Dance_Revolution "Wikipedia")*.
+
+The [Wii](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii "Wikipedia") Dance Mat requires the use of a [GameCube](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GameCube "Wikipedia") controller adapter to function with a computer. Once you have connected the dance pad to your computer, you can bind the correct keys in the osu! settings.

+# Drum controller
+
+![](img/taiko-drum.jpg "Taiko drum")
+
+**Drum controllers** are input devices designed to work with Taiko-like drum games. They most often have four areas of input: right drum center, left drum center, right drum rim, and left drum rim, with each input (key) being activated with a drum stick that is smacked down on the corresponding area of the drum.
+
+## Input
+
+Owners of Taiko drum controllers for the [PlayStation 4 (PS4)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_4 "Wikipedia") or the [Nintendo Switch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Switch "Wikipedia") will need to plug their controllers into the computer via USB and bind the correct keys in the osu! settings. Owners of the [Wii](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii "Wikipedia") Tatacon controller will need to pair their controller to their computer before enabling the Wiimote/Tatacon support option in the osu! settings. Most third party drum controllers will also work with osu!, but support may vary.

+# Mouse
+
+A **mouse** is a very popular way to play osu!. You can use the mouse to aim and click. The middle mouse button is set to pause the game (can be disabled in options), and the scroll wheel can be used to change the volume.
+
+## Mouse-related options
+
+### Sensitivity
+
+This option allows you to select a custom mouse speed and is set to 1x by default.
+
+### Raw input
+
+Raw input will bypass Windows mouse acceleration and provide the most accurate mouse movement. It is necessary to enable raw input in order to set custom mouse sensitivity on Windows 7+.
+
+### Confine mouse cursor
+
+This option allows the mouse cursor to stay inside the osu! window and is set to `Only when fullscreen` by default. The available options include:
+
+- `Never`: Mouse will not stay inside the osu! window.
+- `Only when fullscreen`: Mouse will stay inside the osu! window when in fullscreen.
+- `Always`: Mouse will always stay inside the osu! window.
+
+### Disable mouse wheel in play mode
+
+During gameplay, you can use the mouse wheel to adjust the volume and pause the game. Enabling this option will disable this functionality while playing.
+
+### Disable mouse buttons in play mode
+
+This option will disable all mouse buttons during gameplay, which may be useful for people who use their keyboard to click.
+
+### Cursor ripples
+
+The cursor will ripple outwards on clicking.

+
+**Wiimote** is the primary game controller for Nintendo [Wii](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii "Wikipedia"). Although  mostly seen as gimmicky or silly, the Wiimote can be used in osu!standard to aim using the sensor bar. You can rebind any button to click in the osu! options.
+
+The Wiimote may also be used to control [osu!taiko](/wiki/Game_mode/osu!taiko) drum hits via motion controls or buttons on the Wiimote itself. However, this may require some more advanced knowledge of software and Wiimotes in order to get it working.
