Hello,
I tryed to connect my mic and audio interface but it is not possible to record if I select ASIO audio device type in settings. I did download my AI drivers from the official site. Recording is only possible when Windows Audio is selected.

Any idea what I did wrong?

You've provided insufficient detail.

You need to state what version of operating system you are using, what version which host software you are using, what model of which brand of audio hardware you are using with what version of ASIO driver for that hardware.

Also, realise that if the microphone is not connected to your audio hardware but directly via a separate connection, you will have two separate audio hardware devices and (most) host software can only support one ASIO device at a time.

Regardless, the fallback in all cases is to try ASIO4ALL - it's less efficient but it can get around many problems where things aren't supported and it can also use multiple devices (by not using ASIO).
