Has anyone successfully connected a powered USB to connect an LC6000 to the SC4 live together with an SSD drive connected to the same USB? 2 or 3 drives connected work fine. I want to connect 2 LC6000 through the USB ports and connect an SSD drive for trax. #BugReport

Hi @Glenn_Moore ! Welcome to the forums!
What do you mean by “a powered USB”? Do you mean hub?

I think someone mentioned this before that you have to use up both USB ports if you want to connect 2 LC’s to that device.
The conclusion was it’s probably best to use an SD card for your music if that’s your workflow.
And yes possibly worth a bug report.

> Hello dear community, I know this has been a topic already, but since there was no solution I wanted to try again and see if someone from the community or the Denon team could help me. I have a SC Live 4 Controller as well as two LC6000’s. Everything works fine, but when I have the two LCs plugged in there’s no USB Port left to use as a media input. I tried different USB-Hubs (2 non powered, 1 powered) but can’t make it work - either the LC doesn’t get recognized at all or I get a window sayin…

> Hi everyone! I resurrect this thread, since I can’t have this setup working as suggested. I have the SC Live 4 with two LC6000 controllers. They work without issues when connected to USB 1 and USB 2 of the SC Live 4, but this leaves me with only SD Card for my media library and recording target media. I’ve bought a powered USB Hub (4 ports) and tried every combination I could imagine to connect the LC6000s… But, either their not recognised, or I see the following message in the screen: Pleas…
