Rane SL1 on USB 3.0 Port
Posted on: 13.06.2012 by Dorie Scelzo
I'd be using a Mac, but I don't believe anyone will have tried that yet.

Anyone using an SL1 with a USB 3.0 port on PC? Issues?

Not true... using a brand new (mid 2012) 13" MBP with USB 3.0 and it works perfectly.

i took my SL-3 to a apple store and they installed SSL on their computer to test it out.

SL1 works on USB3.0 - chiming in because I'm bored.

Some really weird shit just occurred that I can't explain. After a reboot, Serato started normally with my 57SL. After ending my session, I went through a series of turning off/on the mixer, connecting/disconnecting the USB cable, and restarting Serato. Sure enough, it did not reconnect. With Serato open, I plugged in the cable from my SL1. It took unusually long but it connected. It worked everytime I disconnect and reconnected the USB cable. So, I figure, it's something specific to the 57SL. For the hell of it, I connected the 57SL and it worked. Disconnected and reconnected a few more times and it worked everytime. What the hell?

Okay…cool. That at least gives hope. I believe the 57 is a USB 1.1 device, which means it's probably pretty close to the same hardware of the SL1. Yay. I might not have to do anything.

When it's working, it keeps working. When I unplug the USB cable, Serato may not recognize the 57SL hardware when I reattach the USB cable.

Does it fail after a while or is it one of the "if it starts working, it keeps working" kinds of things?

It works fine when it's recognized. Haven't noticed any other issue.

That could just be the normal lion USB audio glitches……which is fine for something I wouldn't use for a gig unless I really had to.

Does it work when it's recognized?

Recently picked up a 2012 Macbook Pro with USB 3.0 and Lion OSX. At times, Serato does not pick up the 57SL hardware. Unplug/replug the cable and restarting Serato doesn't help. Reboot required. Never had this problem on my 2009 Macs with Snow Leopard.

Wait, really? Nice. When was that?

I'm looking at an upgrade and debating between a new Air or the last generation of high-end 13" Pros.
