Hello there! I’ve commented in the past and actually bought the hub from your suggestion (thanks again!) Did you ever come up with a way to combine all the cords on this setup? I’m in the process of setting up my own smallrig universal phone cage and I’m struggling a little with the excess cords (light, mirror, battery pack, mic, etc). Thanks a bunch!

when using the usb-A to connect your ssd does it affect the recording speed? knowing that USB-C is faster than the USB-A?
What’s the name of the app you are using for recording video?
