Connecting 2 XDJ1000MK2s & a DJM450 via a Powered USB Hub to Rekordbox

After picking up a pair of XDJ1000MK2s & a DJM450 on black Friday back in 2017, I have finally managed to re-grid all of my library and complete my migration from Traktor Pro. After spending a good year beat gridding, I am pleased to say that I can now press the sync button between any two tracks in my library and they match up perfectly within Rekordbox (version 5.4.2 on a Windows 10 ultrabook).

However, after trying the players in stand-alone mode, I have discovered a disparity between the sync mode within Rekordbox & the sync mode between the XDJ1000MK2s running in standalone mode using removable thumb drives (the sync is not as tight in stand-alone mode).

As such, I am keen to try using the the XDJ1000MK2s & DJM450 in HID mode and would like to know if it is possible to use a powered USB hub to connect all 3 units to Rekordbox via the single USB port on the side of my Windows laptop? If as I suspect, this is possible, which powered USB hub is recommended to do the job described?

I look forward to hearing your responses! :)

Yes, you could use a powered-hub, although the sync should still be strong and precise with the units in stand-alone mode. What would you say is not as "tight"?
