CDJ2000 HID mode on a hub?
So I heard a nasty rumor that CDJ2000’s will not work in HID mode with traktor over a usb hub.
Does anyone know if this is true?
What about the sound card in the DJM900? I know it’s never a good idea to use a sound card over a hub, but would it work?
What kind of difference in latency would you end up with?

CDJs work fine through this little hub:
and a generic no-brand hub I’ve had for years.
Testing the DJM900 now.
Edit: All working fine with 2 CDJs and the DJM through the hub I linked, on my Windows desktop. Latency seems normal at 192 samples/4.4ms latency
Great news. Thank you sir!
Does anyone know if maybe the CDJ2000 nexus doesn’t work with a hub? Or is the rumor I heard just completely erroneous?

The HID mode of the Nexus is pretty much identical to the 2000Mk1 so I don’t see why it wouldn’t. The drivers are also the same AFAIK?
yeah it would be strange if there were a difference.
But am I safe to assume you have used a hub for a pair of 2000’s for full sets and nothing messed up?

I had the hub linked above hooked up to a friend’s Mac for a gig last week and everything worked smoothly. Also, my CDJs are permanently linked to my desktop via a hub built into my monitor and they’ve always worked fine.
I use one of the Beatport hubs will all my gear… works just fine.
