I'm not really sure it has to be USB2.0 I just wrote that originally as I'd rather buy a device that supports more bandwidth. Really it's not necessary. One other consideration is device power. This will be hooked to a laptop and I'm not sure my laptop supplies SUB bus power. Additionally, I don't know how to test that myself. It seems from looking at the Roland site that there isn't a power connector on the UA25 so it's possible it wouldn't work, or maybe would require some sort of a USB hub that can supply power. Anyone with a UA25 able to add anything along these lines?
