ive downloaded all the drivers but asio that comes with it is saying that the device isn't connected. the usb light is on and it is listed in my device list.
Have you checked Device Manager to see if there is an issue with the driver?
@Ghriahim This is the software for Audio Kontrol 1, not Komplete Audio 1. Audio Kontrol 1 is a very old device. Komplete Audio 1 comes with a Plug and Play Wasapi driver. Here you can find how to install the ASIO deriver for your Komplete Audio 1: Installing the ASIO Driver for KOMPLETE AUDIO 1 / 2 / 6 MK2 (Windows)
