Hi David,

I think that's what I'm using here now with my
Midi Patchbay. Maybe the mistake I am
making is using only one repeater then a regular USB
cable attached to that. I'll get another and see if
that doesn't solve my problem.

I read that USB 2.0 shouldn't work with repeaters.
Everyone says it does though.

Good info!

Tom
