Just got this in the mail today, very conveinant item, my x1//traktor stopped freezing and is a must for dell xps laptops (cuz of the 3.0//2.0 usb slots)
Never needed a powered hub for DJ gear on my Apple. Low power port (with a $4 unpowered hub) runs 2 X1s, an lpd8, and Maschine just fine. And I can switch the lpd8 for a vcm-600…same result.
I really don’t know what the fuss is about.
Also, WTF is with all the USB hubs having plugs on more than 1 side or looking like a fucking space ship? Am I the only person that thinks it’s really inconvenient?
