Fighting stick question

[GeekyGuy]

I still don't fully understand the function of a turbo button on a fighting stick. I'm always reading mixed comments regarding the ethics of using the function, but I'm unclear as to what it does for you exactly during fighting gameplay.

Thanks

Say there's a move that works better the faster you hammer the button. The turbo button electronically hammers that button for you.

Hmm...interesting. So, it's not a matter of, say, re-mapping a particular button to do something like PPP or KKK (in Street Fighter)? I'm guessing that makes cancels and chains easier perhaps?
