Universal Windows ASIO Driver

Version 2.21

  • This version officially supports Windows 10 and Windows 11.
  • Also confirmed to work with Windows 7 and Windows 8, with some minor GUI visual artefacts, though.
  • Report bugs to feedback@asio4all.com!

Known issues

  • Generally also works quite well on Windows 11 for ARM64, albeit there is no native ARM version yet. The “Qualcomm Aqstic” integrated mic will not work with the defaults, though. Select “Alternative Buffer Synchronization” in the ASIO control panel advanced settings!

Changes since version 2.20

  • Improve operation with USB class 1 audio devices, both in terms of stability and round trip latency – specifically at 44.1k sample rate.
  • Remove “Debug” option from the installer. Users would frequently enable it – just because “more is always better” – and later suffer from access violation crash dumps initiated by badly coded host applications.
  • Off- Line settings are now always enabled, thus completely removing the component selection from the installer.

The default for this option is “enabled”, potentially lowering CPU utilization in idle mode. Depending on the current ASIO4ALL…

    Hardware Buffer on/off (Obsolete)

    This feature has been removed in version 2.17!The only purpose it did serve – more than 20 years after its introduction – was to confuse users needlessly. Enables the hardware buffer for the highlighted device. This only works for so called “WavePCI” miniports, as other types of WDM drivers do not usually allow direct access…

  • Allow Pull Mode (WaveRT) (obsolete)

    Allow Pull Mode (WaveRT) (obsolete)

    In version 2.17, this feature has been replaced by the “Alternative Buffer Synchronization” – option! There are two basic access methods for a WaveRT device, “pull-mode” (also called “event-mode”) and “push-mode” (also called “polling mode”). If this box is left unchecked, ASIO4ALL will not use “pull-mode”, otherwise it will use it whenever possible. The default…
