Looking good arturia

Am I right in presuming that you can connect a newer "USB midi" controller via the hub ports, and control for example an older sound module connected via midi DIN?

I'm not sure, but I did connect my iPad to the Laboratory 49 controller using a Line 6 Midi Mobilizer, and was able to control a piano app on the computer, and I was also able to use the Laboratory 49 controller via the same connectivity play a piano app on the iPad itself, without either being connected to the computer.

Yes you can, the USB hub is just for that, and because you probably have USB controllers to connect not very far from your AudioInterface. Also as the audiofuse take 1 USB port it is a way to give back some ports.
finally the imoportant thing is that with the power supply it acts as a powered HUB (not like a cheap usb hub)

For a tiny brief moment I thought "wow, so the hub will work in standalone (i.e. PCless) as a MIDI Bridge between DIN and Class Compliant USB controllers/instruments!?"

...but then, reality slapped me in the face with one hand while pointing with the other (hand) at the iConnectivity gadgets that were built for this exact purpose

but, would be a cool feature, nonetheless

Hello,
Recently I became really interested in this interface, mainly because it carries all the features I need. I wasn't able to find another interface that meets these requirements:
_ADAT and S/PDIF I/O
_Word Clock I/O
_At least 2 Mic/Line/Inst inputs
_Extra line outputs besides main monitors
_Portable
I require all this because I'd use it to track my band connecting a Focusrite 18i20 via ADAT and an Audient Mico via S/PDIF, to monitor myself and send signals to outboard gear at my home studio, and also for the ocasional trackings/measurements at the field (hence the portability).
All the negative hype I read in other websites and forums can be summarised as "I don't trust Arturia", which is not based on any concrete experience with the actual product. That's why I still consider purchasing this product
However, I was really disappointed to find that Arturia seems not to have started selling this product at all. All I can find are pre-orders. What happened? I can't believe they haven't released it yet, having presented it at Winter NAMM in January...

Hi , Im still waiting to test this but i was told that there was a problem with the production and this has delayed the audio fuse a bit . but i think beta testing starts soon.
