lcrump29 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 hey guys, im getting ready to get a new computer. Currently im leaning toward a new macbook pro. Im wondering though about the usb 3.0 jacks that it has. Will my 500x connect with no trouble or do i need an interface or just look at a diffrent computer?

ChristianArnold Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I have a 2012 MacBook Pro with usb 3 and it always worked fine. You can use USB 2.0 items with 3.0 input, but not the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
