PS2<USB Adapter problems

I recently bought some blue PS2 to USB adapter from Ebay.

This one.

Its great if I wanna play PC games with my PlayStation controller, but for StepMania, it kinda sucks. With the PS controller everything is responsive and I can do really good, but its alot worse with a dancepad. I've tested it with three pads. A GameStop softpad, a DDR GAME softpad and an Intec (yuck) softpad. They all show the same results: Slow, unresponsive controls.

Is it fixable, or did I but cheap crappy plastic?

The box even said: "DDR dancing controller is compatible." So I have a feeling I'm doing something wrong.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Looks like a Dijong.
I'm in the same boat.

I bought one that seemed pretty generic, but it turned out to be by Dijong, one of the crappiest gaming accesory companies out there. T_T
It doesn't have a dance pad code.
I'm gonna see if I can sell mine to someone who has a PS emulator on their compy for $6 and then just buy one from a more trustworthy site, or even *gasp* a store.
