USB Hub?

Hi.

My laptop has just 3 USB ports.

Currently connected are my DDJ-RZX, an external hard drive and a RB-DMX1.

I would also like to connect a Novation Launchpad. 

If i use a powered USB Hub will it create problems and which 2 devices would be best left connected directly to the laptop?

Thanks.

Andy.

No, I use a powered hub (Anker brand) all the time because my MBP only has 2 ports.

I typically connect the devices requiring the most bus usage directly; an audio device or hard drive should be connected directly, other "control" devices can be on the hub. The RZX, however, I would suggest you connect directly.
