Laggy controller

Hi guys,
I’m using CDJ 350 as midi controllers with a powered USB HUB. But don’t feel the same as when i was using USB Sticks or CDs.
It feels like there is the response time is a bit bigger (and when i got to hit play to beatmatch, it’s a bit of a problem)

How can i improve that ? Better USB cables ? The HUB is a Kensington one, can it be because of that ?

Thanks in advance for your help guys.

are you using it with traktor? if you are you might consider using timecode

i previously tried to hook up the cdj400 and the cdj900 with traktor in hid mode and was really disappointed, you’ll get much better platter movement with timecode (in traktor)

it’s not really about platter (even though i agree the job “side” we use to catch up with the beat can feel strange sometimes) it about every button reaction time. I feel a tiny bit, but it’s uncomfortable.
