Hey so I've been running 2 midi controllers and 2 usb soundcards through a usb hub and have had problems.

Lately I've been trying to just connect the 2 usb soundcards to the 2 available slots on my macbook and it's been running more smoothly, but, nowhere to connect my midi controllers.

My question is can I connect the 2 midi controllers via something such as:
a - http://www.bb-elec.com/product_family.asp?FamilyId=528
OR
b - http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=199941

and is this a good idea? The hub I'm using at the moment is a powered logitech one so it's decent quality and doubt any other hub would work better. I've contacted the manufacturer and the little help they gave me was in the form of just suggesting to connect the soundcards directly to the computer for stability - obviously.

any opinions would be grand.
