Digi Midi I/O and Oxygen 8

[Brave Noise]

Hi, I just picked up a Digi Midi i/o to control my digi pre amps. I'm also using an Oxygen 8. I was wondering if there would be a problem using both USB powered Midi interfaces? Both are being powered from a USB hub, connected to a G4 dual 1.25

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

You may run into problems with having enough power from the USB hub to supply both units. However, the MIDI I/O can also be powered from an external power supply. Check the MIDI I/O for specs on the power supply.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Master J,

That's what I was afraid for. I read somewhere in the specs though that if you power the midi i/o from a pwr supply it will work in Midi through only.
I guess there's no way around it, just have to mess with the USB busses and powered USB hubs. I already have a Gefen USB extender to connect the keyboard and mouse, but when I connect the Oxygen 8 to that I get hanging notes and an enormous latency between touching the keys and hearing a sound. But when I connect the Oxygen 8 directly to the computer, it seems to be fine.

Any ideas about that?
