Thread Starter | Best USB hub?
Hello, all— Need a USB hub for new MacPro to accomodate multiple dongles (iLoks, Logic Xcess, etc.) for multiple DAWs, plug-ins. Can anyone recommend a good one? Best vendor? (Newegg? Tiger Direct?) Should I be concerned about whether it's bus powered (or would require an adaptor)? Many thanks. |

I use a Belkin that has 6-7 USB ports with 3 MIDI interfaces, 2 iLoks, printer,etc.... works ok.

yeah, i need a new one as well.. something that is powered that can run the iLoks.. a nord G2.. virus TI.. scanner.. etc etc... just wondering if there is some "pro" model out there that provides more power than others.. or if they're all about the same..

| I've used a Kensington 7-port and a D-Link with less than happy results. Had to constantly plug-unplug stuff around,kinda messy.(Macbook) Then I got a Logitech 4-port from Microanvika ,last time I was in U.K. and this think is awesome.I even run my WD external hd on it as well my Edirol usb controller with zero probs. Highly recommended. |
