Question

I want to add a USB MIDI controller in addition to my MIDI 88 note keyboard that connects via MIDI cables.  The USB port on the Audiobox USB 96 is already connected to the computer.  Can I get a USB hub (one that supports data obviously), connect that hub to the Audiobox and then connect the computer and the USB MIDI controller to the hub?  

Thanks!

Answer 1

If you use the right hub, yes. You have to look for one that's called a "Multi-TT Hub"

Here's an article from a USB chip maker that explains why. 

We like to recommend the Multi-TT Powered Hub from Manhattan Electronics: http://www.manhattan-products.com/hi-speed-usb-20-ultra-hub
