Komplete Kontrol Preferences -- DAW/EXT option missing

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi, I was trying to set up my S61 MK3 keyboard following the youtube instruction, but I stucked at the point when I need to set the input/output to S61-MK3(DAW) also there should be S61-MK3(EXT) option available. What I have in the drop-down menu are S61-MK3(port 2) and S61-MK3(port 3) only. I tried searching online and installed the driver: "BMIDI DRIVER 2.1.0.44"

but the dropdown display are the same. (in Komplete Kontrol they changed to MIDIOUT2 and MIDIOUT3 but still cannot find DAW/EXT options).

I'm using Windows OS and I have checked my firmware is updated to the latest version, there's a cable connect from keyboard directly to the laptop and a separate cable connected to the keyboard for power supply.

I'm wondering if anyone else knows how to fix this issue? Thank you!

Hello,

2 are the daw ports, 3 are the physical midi din ports and the ones without a number are for playing midi instruments or automation in midi mode. So it´s just another naming.
