Komplete Audio 6 - USB i/o errors 2016 - HELP

[Kenjee Kennedy]

Hello from Mauritius Paradise Island

Recently bought a Komplete Audio 6 sound card and I am pretty much deceived at how many issues it has to be able to work good.

First of all i had those humming noise during my vocals recording. After a couple nights of research and troubleshooting, I solved the issue that was to unplug my laptop from power supply.

So now for my recording, i do it only on my laptop battery power, my soundcard and Mic, works good, no humming / buzz noise. Decent pre amps.

By biggest issue right Now..is : A lot of USB i/o errors that causes my system to crash! ( Blue screen)

I am running a dell inspiron n5110 corei3 with 32bit sytem 2 gb Ram and over 250gb space. I agree its not a loaded Daw for massive studio works, but i plan to record only vocals like interviews with it. I thought that it would work fine.

I have no other softwares installed except cubase le 6 edition that came with the komplete audio 6 when i bought it.

I read a couple of threads about this issue, but even changing buffer rates it helped in nothing!

My driver is up to date!

Help!

What is the error reported by the Blue Screen? BSOD's are good to see, they tell you whats broken!

Also your humming was a ground loop issue which isn't really a KA 6 issue, rather how your electrics are feeding it but I guess you already established that.

The hum is ground loop issue. I have encountered this myself with Audio Kontrol which seems to be quite prone to it.

If you see a lot of USB errors then most likely the culprit is the bluetooth or wireless driver. Try to disable those in Device Manager. I remember reading something about some Dell's not working very well with AK just because of those two issues.
