Talking about accessories, I would love a handful of colored paired 6.35 mm stereo jacks to go with Elektron fancy USB cable…
and mr dataline talked about it in the video like it was nothing, secretly knowing that elektronauts would go bananas.
Will it charge or power anything ?
Judging from the picture, it has a plug in for power adapter. 5V, 3A? Which probably means yes, it should then power things like hard drives and charge phones. You may have to buy an adapter if its not included though.
How soon is soon??
w/ a name like overhub, I’m guessing cheap cheap
the usb cable was not that expensive… i think. So… I guess 49 euro
I wouldn’t assume it’ll charge iDevices- they are pretty picky…
Hmm the USB cable is TWO to FOUR times the price of a similar USB cable without Elektron branding.
Amazon Basics is 3.99
Anker or Belkin 6.99
Maybe the Elektron cables are higher quality
69 Euro! For a USB hub?!
A bit pricy, isn’t it?
How many OB enabled gear is an evarage Elektron enthusiast supposed to have and use simultaneously that this USB hub is making sense, technically speaking?
went to buy
no shipping available outside europe
whats the point in an international newsletter with a buy button that links to a store where you cant buy stuff?
“Connect up to 7 units to a single host computer for maximum productivity.”
hell yeah … how many OB enabled new machines are in the pipeline??
And will support OB 2.0 7 units and more than 14 channels audio?
Ah, my bad. Didn’t realise you could change country at the bottom of the site.
I record 14 channels of audio to ipad from my Focusrite Scarlett 18i6. To my surprise the Elektron USB cable seems to be the only cable I own that this works with. Any other makes the audio stream unrealiable and eventually cause the Scarlett to crash. Out of curiousity I’ve tried around 6-7 other USB 2.0 cables, and none of them can handle that many channels of audio. The Elektron cable consistently works, the others consistently fails. Very strange, but probably an indication that the Elektron cable indeed is of high quality.
AND THE WINNER IS : :: : : :: : : : : : : : :: :
I like the price I must say!
I wonder if it comes with an elektron usb cable? assuming it does but the pic also shows a regular black cable…
just ordered, I ll let you guys know
Ordered one. Price seems alright if you compare to a high end USB hub like this one http://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B009EX24T4.
And at least, shipping was free as I’m in France.
Where’s the speculation thread for the other 4 ports.
i doubt it, unless they’re also branding usb’3’ cables now
