Maybe it was a problem with Reaper. Sometimes if you unplug the power supply cable from the POD and you have Reaper opened, you may get a General Protection Fault (the classical blue screen).

no problem, as Jim pointed out though... will only work at the level of the device... you won't get usb 3 speeds... but working as a usb 2 device won't be a problem... that and you are a little future proofed for the next generation of devices...

According to this website (http://www.everythingusb.com/superspeed-usb.html) USB 3 is backward compatible with USB 2.

Hi all knowing forum.

I am giong to buy a new computer for recording purposes. It seems that the one i'll get is equipped with USB3.0 only.

So here comes my question:

Is anyone expecting troubles/ issues when hooking up the POD via USB 3.0 for recording/ software updates???

Thank you for your help,
