No sound in with Kontrol S2 Mk3 ASIO driver
Hi there,
I've installed the ASIO driver of my Kontrol S2 Mk3 and the VoiceMeeter software, as some of you suggested on other posts. I can select "Kontrol S2 Mk3" in VoiceMeeter but it act like there is no sound, even though it's blasting on my speakers through the RCA port of the controller.
I'm stuck since hours on this issue. I'm getting mad! Anyone has an idea on what could be the issue?
Some more context: Traktor Pro 3.9.0 on Windows 11. My goal is to use Traktor Pro output into TouchDesigner to control some generative art. I've managed to route Traktor Pro output to VoiceMeeter's virtual input, and this works. So it's not a VoiceMeeter or TouchDesigner issue I believe. The only done side from this is that I cannot pre-listen to my tracks with my headphones as the sound is going through the laptop and not the Kontrol sound card.
Thanks in advance!!

So i tried a bit and it works much easier then i first thought
A1 you set to 1-2 out and A2 to 3-4 both waspi shared of the s3
and in your app that also needs audio input you set "voicemeter virtual asio" 1-2 the signal comes from B1

Before you ask, it's probably not a volume issue. I pushed the gain at the max in VoiceMeeter and there was still no sound at all

Hello,
can you make a picture of the audio routing tab of Traktor too. But easiest way would be to use a second audio interface, You use the traktor control one as normal, you just route audio back through the second interface to your generative program, it's also the better way in terms of delay/buffer size.

Not all ASIO are equal. I have no idea if this could be an issue with the particular ASIO driver in context...
Also , you have far too few settings pictures , including of output routing of your S2 MK3 settings , and from VoiceMeeter (also only zoomed in) and from Windows generally, for me to have any real opinion on any of it !
There is so many settings on so much that have to be set right and that can be screwed up by drivers not OK.
Also , I am not the most expert at this there are probably many here more experienced with ASIO drivers and stuff like that !

So i checked, and as far as i can see, if you want to pre listen your tracks, best way is to use a second audio interface. But it should be also possible with voice meter, but the setup is not that easy, if you plan to pre listen your tracks via cue. You will have to involve the insert driver from voice meter in order to be able to do that and another app for routing some stuff.

@Uwe303 Thanks for your quick reply. Here's my Output Routing. Just the default setup:
Regarding your second message, yes having a USB sound card would work to send music from Traktor to VoiceMeeter but having a channel for the Master and one for the Monitor. Or, like I said, not using the Monitor channel at all and prepare the set enough to do everything visually. Not ideal...
@PoorFellow Thanks for your feedback. Here's the full screenshot of VoiceMeeter. It's really just the factory settings:
I tried to uninstall all drivers + VoiceMeeter, reboot, and reinstall everything, still the same status. The "Traktor Kontrol S2 Mk3 Audio" channel is visible by VoiceMeeter, but the signal is always at 0 even though some music is playing.
Sounds to me that it's a problem of that Kontrol S2 Mk3 ASIO driver, as all the rest works properly. Would be nice to have some thoughts from someone from Native Instruments!

In audio setup then Check page 2 onwards here for ideas to try first ! , else maybe try altering "built in Sound card" to ?? or that of your computer !!!
Also , I don't know if of help : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqYl84JZ1bU
Check above thoroughly first ! : Else , other suggestions to check :
Have you tried altering the 'Output Routing Preferences' (I have no idea what is available)
Have you tried the Windows' own 'WASAPI (Exclusive)' driver to see if that makes any difference ? Ref. : https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000520317
Have you tried the ASIO4ALL driver ? , Ref. guide here : https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/209590369-How-Can-I-Configure-TRAKTOR-for-Two-Audio-Interfaces-
Has Windows selected your S2 as the default audio device? That often messes up using ASIO drivers

I mean you use you s2 normal, you connect headphones there, but on master out you connect a second audio interface to line in (hardware monitor to speakers) and via usb to you app for the visuals or whatever you want to generate. absolutely without voice meter. And like i said with voice it will work but it´s a complicated setup using insert driver and whatnot. I maybe can try to send you a guide how to setup if you really want but then maybe tomorrow cause i would need a bit time to try out myself first. BUT most stable would be a second interface to route master out back into your computer it just needs hardware monitor 2 ins/2 outs.
