can any one suggest a good usb2 hub that is not DC powered?
If im powering a dac 3 and a mixer that has a built in sound card will it need to be powered?

You should always use a Self-powered HUB. Hubs powered by the USB ports create to many 'drops' in packets that cause issues. Especially if you are running a controller through the same hub the soundcard is on. Always recommend that the USB Sound device be given it's own dedicated USB port to run from.
