When will USB 3.0 be truly backwards compatible with USB 2.0 audio interfaces?
hello
I own a U46DJ mkII audio interface. I use the interface for music production, particularly recording vocals.
The device performs well on my windows laptop, I can record clean vocals with no artifacts. On the macbook pro however, the incoming audio signal is full of digital pops and clicks.
After spending a few days searching for solutions on google I narrowed it down to the USB 3.0 ports on the new macbook pro.
Lots of people with with all different brands of audio interface are experiencing problems while connecting them to USB 3.0 ports.
Here is an article on the topic: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2012/06/usb-3-0-backwards-compatible-in-theory-but -some-audio-drivers-arent-cooperating/
So, when will USB 3 be truly backwards compatible with our USB 2 devices?
