XDJ-RX usb port
Hi ...
I was wondering what speed the USB ports on the XDJ-RX have. Are those 2.0 or 3.0 ports? I don't see it mentioned in the product specifications.
Currently I'm using 2.0 USB sticks, but it's taking HOURS to export from Rekordbox. I'm considering changing them to a 3.0 stick. Maybe that will make huge difference. Unless the slow export is Rekordbox by design. Anyone who can confirm this is a major speed increase during export?
Not that it makes a difference for the XDJ-RX, they'll fall back to 2.0. But I was just curious what speed the port is on the XDJ-RX.
Cheerio!

The USB chipset on all Pioneer products are USB2.0, and I'll tell you why...
The maximum bandwidth of USB2.0 is 40MB/s, and even if you were to link to other players and stream four 24bit / 96kHz songs from one USB2.0 device simultaneously, it's still only consuming 18MB/s (4608kb/s x 4), which is blow half of the maximum throughput.
The benefit of using a USB3.0 device is the ability to export from rekordbox at high speed.
I'll actually be doing a comprehensive USB drive review next week while at the NAMM show. Look for that to be posted to the Help Centre soon.
