definitely, just like the S4, or a host of other controllers. But he cant' say "or any controller like it", when he's just talking about ones with the ability to plug in for a slight output boost and maybe some brighter LEDS.... For example A mixtrack is fully USB-powered, and it's definitely a "product like it."Quote:

The volume wouldn't be affected as we're talking line level output here, that's miliwatts of power. The LED brightness is a possibility, although really it's just a question of whether or not the port you're connected to can output enough amps. I can draw 1.5-2A from the ports on my PC, and at least an amp from the ports on my MacBook Pro. ALL of those are enough to drive the Studio 4A at its rated input, allowing for voltage conversion from 12 to 5V.
If I was to buy a Studio 4A, the first thing I'd most likely do was open it up and see if I could bypass the 12-5V conversion circuit and drive it directly from USB.
Saying that, I won't be buying a Studio 4A as I've got my Reloops. I WILL be getting an MM-1, two DC-1s and two LC-1s :)
I would also would pass on the Studio 4A as I've got Denon last month. Good thing for me as having a separate power source is not ideal on all situations.Quote:

It doesn't support them. Best you can do is a hack that apparently doesn't work well.Quote:

We hope... There have been two large patches since 2.5. They're not happy yet with the amount of extra F1's they've sold by locking down their system.Quote:
