Using a PS2 control pad to control Ableton

I've got a PS2 control pad -> USB convertor and I was just wondering if it's possible to use it to control Ableton Live and/or programs like traktor. Having the twin X/Y analogue sticks plus the analogue buttons could be usefull for music-ings. So yeah, does anyone know if this sort of thing is possible ?

EDIT: This is the closest I've found: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqyjnFNQ96Q (this uses the buttons to trigger stuff but unfortunatly doesn't talk about using this analogue sticks)

Bidule!

(& midi yoke)

Ok so I've now managed to get this sorted with a mixture of Midi Yoke and Rejoice but I can't for the life of me work out how you assign a midi device to the "Assignable X/Y Contoller" in Ableton. I can assign other commands fine using the Midi Learn button in Ableton (the one that makes the buttons all blue until you send it a midi command) but I can't assign anything to the rather ironically named "Assignable X/Y Contoller"...... anyone know ?

The two drop-down boxes beneath the X-Y surface allow you to select a MIDI parameter for the surface to control. No MIDI Learn required. Take care!

Ooh, I got it now. Cheers man !

NP. Where'd you get the PS2>USB converter from? My PS2 gave up the ghost months back and it'd be nice to use the bits and bobs for something.

I bought it at Game a couple of years back for under £10. I totally forgot I had it until about a month ago.

Play.com has got one listed for £6.99 here: http://play.com/Games/PC/4-/114167/Play_co...XP/Product.html

Safe... I've been playing San Andreas on my PC quite a lot lately and being able to use my PS2 pad would make it purrrrrrrrrrfect

another option would have been Max/msp and 'hi' the human interface object
