installing ASIO

[tpethen]

hmmm...  that's strange.  Its not very common for a manufacturer's driver to not be recognized at all; sometimes by one app, but not usually every app.  I assume you are using the driver posted on the NI Support site:  Komplete Audio 1 & 2 Driver 4.59.0 - Windows 10.  The info states this is the ASIO driver

The only thing I can suggest is to re-run the install, but right-click on it and choose "Run as Administrator".  Perhaps you have security settings disabling your ability to write files in some of the Windows directories.
Hope this helps

Yes, I ran it as administrator and it fired up and was accepted, with the latency dropping right down. Thank you very much
