ddj flx 6 and a USB cable other than the one supplied

Hi all, I have had a ddj Flx 6 Gt for about a month and it works fine. since I need to put a longer USB cable, I wanted to ask why the controller connects to the PC only with the cable that came out supplied, if I connect one of a different length it doesn't even turn on, it is obvious that the ones I have tried they work regularly, thanks to those who answer me

The DDJ receives power over USB, and use of a longer cable may result in less power delivered (longer cables = higher impedance), especially if the cable is beyond the USB2 spec. of 16ft, but even if it's longer than 6 feet you're risking power issues. You could use a split cable that injects power from a source other than your computer, but that isn't officially supported so you didn't hear it from me. ;)
