I currently use a USB cable to connect my O/G DP-32 to my mac for backups and AudioDepot and such. It's a standard-issue A-to-MiniB, 3 feet, with a noise choke. Works FINE, exactly as designed/intended.
My problem: I need a TEN footer for my studio arrangement. I bought one - and it DID NOT WORK. Connected it, opened the USB connection on the DP, and DP DID NOT appear on the mac.
Does anyone have any experience with using a long/er cable for that connection? Did it connect/function?
Or was my problem that the USB connection won't support a 10' cable run?
Or did I just get a cable that doesn't pass data unless it's connected to a phone or something?
Did a deep dive in the OM, but the section on connection via USB to a computer sez nothing whatsoever about the cable, other than to ensure it has the right connectors (DUHHH!)...
TIA!
