DDJ SB connection to a USB C
i purchased a new laptop that has only USB C connection and i have a DDJ SB with the original cable USB B to USB A
is there a cable that i can use for the conversion or does a simple adapter work for this?

You can get a hub, allowing you a wider use of that single port, but USB C to B cables are available.
so this link which shows a usb b to usb c would allow full connectivity of my ddjsb? with no major issues?
also any hubs you would recommend?
I wouldn't expect any issues when running a compliant USB C-to-B cable.
i have a hub that came with my laptop that allows usb A but the connectivity does not work well
Your mileage will vary with cheap hubs; I'm a fan of ANKER brand products, they're solid and perform very well.
i got the connection you suggested and still no connectivity any other recommendations
Did the SB power-up at all?
yes it fully powers on but laptop states connectivity doesn't work well
also the serato program says connection may take up to one minute but after multiple plug ins and waiting for multiple minutes the hardware still will not connect to my laptop
Sorry, can you clarify what you mean by "laptop states connectivity doesn't work well" -- do you get an error message, if so, can you please post a screen shot of it?
And have you updated the firmware and tried uninstalling / reinstalling the drivers?
picture above is just the new cable usb c- usb b
and it only show that and still will not load up both decks on screen
controller has power and somewhat functional as in pressing and highlighting some buttons but no results on screeen
this second photo shows when i try to use the usb c- usb b cable through the hub that came with the laptop
again power to controller but no communication between software and hardware.
updated firmware and the drivers
