The actual speed that the data travels at is still the same speed it’s just that there’s more room for data to be sent.Īs a crude analogy, imagine two roads, one with just one lane (USB2.0) and one with multiple lanes (USB3.0) and both roads have the same speed limit. It is true that USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt offer higher bandwidths but our interfaces simply don’t need the additional bandwidth that these connections offer. This means you can use your any of our interfaces in the studio or out on the road anywhere in the world and not have to worry about finding a compatible port on a computer! USB Analogy etc But isn’t USB 3.0 better? USB 2.0 was chosen as it is currently the most prolific port on computers.
