Change controller based on emulator

[VincentGaia]

Hi, i'm building a bartop based on a PC system.

I'm using recalbox and i'v got the following problem :

I wish to use my 2 player Xin-mo arcade for old consoles, arcade and to control the emulation station frontend, and switch to my 4 wired Xbox 360 controllers for the more recent consoles, like PS1, N64 and so on.

All of that without disconneting anything...

Did someone have an idea on how i can do that ?
I've heard that maybe by manipulating the lanch config files for the differents emulators I can do something, but i'm not an expert in retroarch...

Thank for your time !
