OK, I have two Cobalt Flux pads, and want to connect them to my PC. I'm aware of some options that are available, but they are have reports of not working with two pads at once due to voltage issues, or requiring you to hold start-select-up for three seconds to work, or not mapping to the joystick axis properly, etc.

Are there any adapters that just plain WORK??

Also, is anyone aware of any wireless solutions that can be used between the pads and the PS2-->USB converter so that I don't have wires running all over my place?

Thanks you guys.

Any input or guesses would be VERY useful. Hasn't anyone tried this?

why the heck not?
I have an EMS USB 2 that works like a charm, and that wireless controller adapter should work if it doesn't draw too much power than the adapter can provide. You might have a problem with lag, seeing as both of those produce at least a little bit of it.

Have you had any problems with your EMS USB 2 where, when using two pads, Stepmania 'loses' the controllers and you have to unplug it/replug it to get it to work again?

no. I haven't used two controllers for a long time, though.

I ordered the two wireless PS2 conneters + EMS USB2 and I'll report back how it works.
