When this guide applies

Exact Audient EVO 4. Windows only; installed EVO ASIO selected in DAW, actual control visible, recording stopped, no complete USB disconnect/red power fault; accept increased monitoring delay. Only normal external user controls; no reset, firmware installation, internal repair, mains alteration or earth lifting.

Connection scope: USB audio. Symptom: Audio keeps cutting out.

This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.

If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.

Checks and possible outcomes

Start at scope. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
