I have one of these on every computer station I own, I used one live for a year straight of weekly shows, and if I ever need another hub.. this is it.
Pioneer XDJ-RX//Rekordbox & Ableton Push 1//Ableton 9 Suite
15" MacBook Pro 2017//Quad Core i7 @ 3.1GHz//16GB RAM//1TB SSD//AMD 560 4GB GPU
A good USB HuB is made by a good power supply... I bought a sitecom for 6€ with a 5V @ 1Ampere power supply... But to work correctly every port needs 0.5/0.6(peack) mhA so since the hub has 4 port if you divide 1 ampere for each port is not enough... So I went in a electronic shop and bought for 15€ a second power supply that is 5V @ 2,5 mhA... Now every port has the necessary power to work properly...
Don't buy expensive USB hub... The secret is the power supply... Hubs are all the same... This is the best and cheapest solution to have a working and stable setup...
And if you have a MacBook Pro plug the hub in the first port you find after the power supply, and the soundcard in the other port...
The result is 100% guarantee
Sorry for my bad English...
I'v heard Plugable makes good usb hubs. Powered and un powered to.

My 7 port Plugable just came in, and so far im stoked on it. Fast, slim design, LEDs as well. Right now I have 5 controllers hooked up to it, and its running without a problem. 5V power adapter, backwards compatible with 1.1 usbs and forwards compatible with 3.0 usb.
