How to connect f1 to X1 mrk3

leonroberts1972

Any help would be much appreciated.

I have 2 x F1 and X1 mrk3

Due to lack of usb ports on my laptop, I am attempting to connect one of my f1s to the ports of my X1 mrk 3.

But the f1 does not light up and cant work out what I am doing wrong.

Does anyone have the same issue and know how to resolve it

Thanks in advance

Sounds like a defect product, maybe the power supply does not work. Contact NI hardware support.

For the USB hub to work, you need to power the x1 with the power supply.

ummmmmm, yes i know

If you have USB and power connected to the x1, and nothing works that is connected to the Hub, it might be defective. You can try with something simple like a USB stick, just to see if that works.

Also if you just connect power, no USB, does the x1 lights up?

No it does light up untill I connect it to my laptop.

So there is no setting that need to be changed on the traktor settings then?

Nope. For me it just works ™
