=== How to connect !GuitarFreaks / !DrumMania (GITADORA!) controller for !PlayStation? ===
To connect !PlayStaion GITADORA! controller to DTXMania, you can use the converter (!PlayStaition to USB)... you can purchase it as a commercial products.
Before purchase the converter, you should check the reputation about it, because some adapter has a big lag to convert the signal.
BTW, initial DTXMania does '''NOT''' have any pad assigns for GITADORA! controller. So, you have to configure the key/pad assign to use it.
You can configure it at CONFIGURATION - (Drums / Guitar / Bass) - Input Option - Key Assign. See also [faq_pad_assign_e Pad/keyboard assign].
=== GITADORA! controller's input seems dull/laggy. How to improve it? ===
Essentially it is because "Converter's performance is not good". (so you can't improve it)......but I introduce you some tips which MAY be able to improve the performance.
* Go "CONFIGURATION - System - Display Option", and set VSyncWait OFF. You may feel better than VSyncWait=ON.
* Go "CONFIGURATION - System - Input Option", and set !BufferedInput OFF. Current DTXMania app seems be able to get !DirectInput input at 15.6 milliseconds intervals when !BufferedInput=ON. Under investigation to improve the resolution of input.
* Stable USB power supply may improve the input feel. For example,
* Disconnect other USB devices.
* Use self-powered USB hub (which uses AC-adapter), if you use bus-powered hub (which does not AC adapter)
* Directly connect to on-mother USB port, if you connect the USB port under USB hub.
* If you already connected to on-mother USB port, change to other on-mother USB port.
* Basically "1 USB port - 2 !PlayStation connector" type of converter tend not to have enough performance than "1 USB port - 1 !PlayStation connector" type.[[br]]If you use "1 USB port - 2 !PlayStation connector" type, please connect two !PlayStation controller into single converter (ex. GITADORA! controller and dummy !PlayStation standard controller, etc). It may improve the performance.
* In case some special button is laggy, please check whether the button is "AXIS" or not.(AXIS buttons are assigned to DTXMania as Left, Right, Up or Down". AXIS is a little dull than pure buttons.
