USB 1, 2 or 3?

Post by TheJay »

Considering this is advertised as a Midi to USB product, you would have thought it would say which version of USB it uses somewhere. Can someone please confirm?

Maybe Rob can add that the Specs page.

Is there anything in 2020 still using USB 1?
I've looked throughout my house and couldn't find any.... and I have a lot of USB gizmos laying around.

But the amount of data is so small, it really doesn't matter whether it is 2 or 3... I'm sure there would be absolutely no difference in speed.

The simple answer is indeed 2.0.

Thanks Rob, no need to bother with an external USB 3 HUB then. I can save a bit with a 2.0 hub. Could you please add this information to the website and manual?

This was a good discussion, mostly music professionals, about US hubs:

Agree on Anker - the Plugable stuff is quality also

The Anker HUB linked in that thread doesn't seem to be available anywhere!

What requirements does the USB hub need to have? Any sort of power supply?
