Title: suggestion on a good psx to xbox, psx to dc adapter.
Post by: sush1a on November 26, 2003, 01:55:16 am

hi, as y'all can tell i'm still a newbie here...  after asking for advice on building the CP.. I am finally at the point of completing it, just need to mount the base to the top panel.  Thanks goes out to Chu (should've put more layer of primer before painting as Chu suggested) and Tiger-Heli for showing me the parts i need.

I am using 2 psx pcbs for my 2 player stick.  already have ps2 to usb adapter for my pc and it works great.  Now I am looking for a good psx to xbox and psx to dc adapter.  Hoping not to get 1 of those laggy ones like the X-Arcade adapter for xbox..  please feel free to post good or bad experiences with the xbox, dc adapters.  Thanks!

This works with ps1 original digital pads(tested).
I heard some 3rd party digital pads dont work correctly with this converter.

PSX only with digital support. Shipping from HK can be an issue but they do take Paypal etc... check shipping prices. It's $15

thanks guys.

armad1ll0, I might need to get that since the psx pad i used is only digital, I bought a regular psx-to-xbox adapter and it didn't work, also bought a psx-to-dreamcast adapter on ebay, and it didn't work either..  but when I plug in my first gen analog psx controller, it worked in both...  

I just messed up on a generic analog I bought from compusa that worked on both adapters... (DAMMIT!! cost me 15 bucks)  Does anybody have a easy to do psx analog controller they can recommend?  And do you cut off the analog part when u use it?  I cut my L1/L2 R1/R2 and both analog part off and it started to mess up.. Now its in the trash..

I highly suggest sticking to real sony joysticks when using those converters...thats what they are based off.  You use a cheap 3rd party digital or analog psx stick and you are just asking for trouble.
