why is there no Asio for the S3? Why do I have 1.8GB sound drivers on my PC if I can't use any of them?

"Unlike former TRAKTOR controllers, the [...] S3 uses Windows' own 'WASAPI (Exclusive)' driver."

Any other reason was not given.

Maybe FlexASIO would work?

Good Morning @MOLEX

I highly doubt my request for a separate driver will be looked into. The main focus of the project lately is Pattern Player(stupid idea), main software tweaks, pro plus subscription.... To name a few, I have checked out some of the other software, at the moment, Real Live Stems is the main focus & of course improving the software overhaul.

You may browse through an active thread of mine, with each new release, I am having much difficulty with audio output on both my headphones & master.

I left it as is.... No point in arguing the system, been falling on deaf ears. I have tried to be a mantle for all S3 users but NI is just focusing on the above mentioned.

Hope this helps shed a bit of light.

Why do you NEED asio?

and why shouldn't there be ASIO for a 500€ controller when the S2 and S4 have it? ASIO is simply better! I have to go and show the Berliners what they have built there!

there are also sound problems in the mix when recording I don't want to use BUG WASAPI either

I think I heard your sound problems in another thread. I have an s4 with ASIO drivers and at time have the same problems sometimes.

Traktor is very perceptible to those kinds of things.
