Usb hub support in new firmware (not released)

[lokki]

hi there,

a question popped up regarding usb-hub support. will it be possible to interconnect two usb-midi devices? so for example plug in an usb-midi keyboard and a synth with usb-midi and send data from the keyboard to the synth. what would the latency be like?

thanks

The USB Host port doesn't support USB hubs, I don't think.

not jet, i know. but the new (unreleased) firmware should, no?

new firmware will have hub support, code is already in dev version.
yes you can send data between devices , there is also a new way of identifying devices in patches.
Latency is fine as far as I can tell, I don’t think any more than if you plugged in directly really.

ok, thanks @thetechnobear! my question regarding latency was geared towards interconnecting devices. will there be additional processing latency from usb to usb? (something like 1.3ms as for audio) or is this handled on a lower level? anyways, exciting stuff!!

wow big ups for implementing this guys! This will make bigger setups with multiple axolotis and controllers a lot easier
