USB or serial connection...?

[Dreamcube017]

Hey guys. I was wondering if a PS2 to serial converter would work any better with a US IIDX controller than a PS2 to USB one would. I have a USB one now and it actually works pretty good, minues a few miliseconds of lag and the turntable's not all that bad either.But what I need to know is if I get a serial port on my new computer and get a PS2 to serial converter and plug my USKOC into it, will I get any noticable improvement or not? If I will get improvement, will I be able to configure it just like the USB ones with Joy2Key or something like that? Thanks. Thanks in advance.

I am assuming you mean a parallel port adapter when you say serial port. I remember reading somewhere that USKOC's will not function with a parallel port adapter somehow due to their cheap circuit board. I have an EMS USB 2.0 and it is really terrible so I ordered a parallel port adapter and I will try it out on both JKOC and USKOC and report back as to its functionality and whether or not it's worth a damn.

X_X... yeah that's what I meant. Sorry.

Cool. Please let me know what you find out. Thanks.

So does anyone have any news on this yet? If a paralell connection will work better with a JP KOC then I'll just get that and a converter that works that way. What do the DJ Dao ones work with? Are those only for PS2? Thanks.

It could also depend on if your using USB 2.0. Speed is greatly improved from 1.1 to 2.0.

All my ports are USB 2.0. That's not the problem. My com'uter downstairs is faster than this one, but I don't think that'll really fix anything.

If you want a very good USB adapter , Super Joybox 3 Pro is the way to go , no lag, no worries , it's only like $8 and shipping from playasia.com was only $3 !! (and i live in Hawaii) . lol
