[CLOSED] Virtual DJ and Pioneer DDJ-S1 not detecting sound driver

When I load up virtual DJ I get this error

"Error in the sound driver (DirectX/WDM): Your soundcard is probably not connected, or the settings are incorrect"

Now, on to what I have tried.

I have 2 computers, a laptop and a desktop.  I have plugged my DDJ-S1 into both of them and get the same error.

Virtual DJ does recognize my DDJ-S1, but this is by setting it on my primary sound card (which obviously, not getting any sound from the pioneer board itself, just able to use it to play and load songs from speakers connected to the computer)

As soon as I try to set it to the DDJ-S1 to get sound from it, the error pops up and I'm unable to get any sound what so ever.

I have downloaded the drivers from the serato itch install.  And the drivers from pioneer's website for the DDJ-S1

I have used Serato Itch on both computers, and it works fine.  I can play, mix, and get sound out of speakers and headphones.  My only reasoning to even use Virtual DJ is I need a software equalizer (like 10/15 band) so I don't have to carry and external one.   Why oh why is Serato itch such a butchered down program compared to Serato Live I will never know.  I knew I should of got the T1 and just went with good ol traktor.

Needless to say, if anyone can help or has had this same problem let me know.  Thank you very much for anyone's time in helping me.

What version of VDJ are you using as there was a new one released a few weeks ago, also can you post a screen shot of your sound config from VDJ.

Have you got the pioneer Asio drivers on your pc? If so try in your settings - input=none output=master and headphones then select asio for the last one and select the pioneer asio in the selection box that comes up next to it. Let me know how that works. Have you also tried the pioneer forum on the virtualdj website for help
