Connection from Yamaha cp88 midi port to MacBook Pro works faultlessly for GarageBand.
Very happy with performance and reliability. Connection from Yamaha cp88 midi port to MacBook Pro works faultlessly for GarageBand.

Use this to connect to my digital piano, which comes with a USB to Host port used to transfer MIDI.
Makes recording etc. convenient so I can just sit the laptop on the piano, plug it in and record. Use this to connect to my digital piano, which comes with a USB to Host port used to transfer MIDI.

As a digital musician, I use a number of USB cords. This one that I purchased does the job very well. The purchase, coupled with PB Tech’s great service and exemplary range of products,
makes them my first port of call for everything digital. As a digital musician, I use a number of USB cords. This one that I purchased does the job very well. The purchase, coupled with PB Tech’s great service and exemplary range of products,

As the other review said. Handy for DJ controllers and new laptops. Good length, thought I’d need smaller but this is the one. Only four stars because it’s not the most premium cable you can buy. But it’s super standard no faults. As the other review said. Handy for DJ controllers and new laptops. Good length, thought I’d need smaller but this is the one.

I've owned for a few weeks and it has been working fine.
A couple of reasons why not five stars:
I would prefer if it didn't have branding on the usb c side. Turning it over solves that, but the otherside is not smooth. This is definitely a nitpick.
The other reason is that taking the cable in and out of my Macbook Air is not clean, it's a bit jammy compared to other usb c cables I have, this wouldn't matter usually but I often take the cable in and out.

Unless you are looking for the absolute premium experience in usb-c to usb-b cables, this is a good pick. I've owned for a few weeks and it has been working fine.

A must-have for all NEW mac Serato DJ's. Nice length at 6 m and reliable product. Great for DJing out. A must-have for all NEW mac Serato DJ's. Nice length at 6 m and reliable product. Great for DJing out.
