Just got my MR-8 today and recorded a few fun multi-tracks.

I was somewhat taken aback by the USB port physical layout. What's up with THAT? That's a hub slot. What do I need to make this work?

It's a cool piece of equipment for 3 bills in any case.
Here's a sample:

I believe it's called a USB 'B' socket.
Most USB printers have the same one.

You'll need a USB cable like this:

It is a 'B' socket, you'll need a cable with two ends like this to hook it to the USB 'A' socket in your pc:
 
Hey - can't seem to download the tune. Any ideas? And yeah, the USB cable is a bummer. Circuit City has a nice one for about $30 that's good quality.
 
My Audigy uses that same USB type...

My external ZIP uses that same USB type...

My printer uses that same USB type...

My external CDR/W uses that same USB type...

My Card Reader uses that same USB type...

I'm confused as to the confusion

:confused:
 
Wabbit: Yeah, that's what I thought - but it occurred to me that if drstawl had only ever seen a USB socket on a computer he might think there was only one type of USB plug/socket, so I thought I'd put him right gently by mentioning one common device: if he's having trouble with 'USB' your list will freak him altogether!!! :)
All this, even though he profaned.

Thanks for the insight. For some strange reason all of the USB devices (save my H/P printer)- and yea verily I have a bunch, use the other style.

Robbing the one from my printer temporarily worked just fine.
 
Doc, you can get them cheap. You might want to just go get a couple so that you don't forget to put it back on the printer.... :) ;)
