Generic low latency asio driver cubase software drivers#

It would certainly be more beneficial for BMD to make Resolve talk directly to ASIO drivers because, to my knowledge, you can't buy a professional audio interface for Windows these days that doesn't include ASIO drivers and, as I mentioned, BMD hardware devices already include ASIO in the Decklink driver. So whilst a bridge can be made, Windows Audio doesn't really have the capability of handing what ASIO drivers offer. They also support other functions such as external synchronisation and variable buffer sizes giving direct control over I/O latency versus system load. They correctly list all I/O's of the interface making them accessible to the host application.

Generic low latency asio driver cubase software 32 bit#

The drivers are more efficient than Windows Audio, they properly support 32 bit float (possibly now 32 bit integer as well) and sample rates of up to 384MHz (and probably higher). ASIO and every other Windows-based audio driver made for professional use, bypasses the Windows Audio System altogether, providing a direct path from the audio application to the audio device whilst also forcing Windows to treat the process with higher priority. The issue is that Windows sees sound as a low priority process and so it imposes long delays on the processing of the incoming and outgoing signals, which is of course what creates the latency issues. It's unfortunately quite inefficient and puts a high load on the system. The generic driver acts kind of like a bridge to the lowest level of the audio drivers in the Windows. Steinberg provide a 'Generic Low Latency ASIO' driver with their applications because they will ONLY talk to ASIO. It would be a very welcome improvement in Resolve allowing full, 32bit, low latency access to a world of stunning audio interfaces that connect via any bus you can think of including CAT5 (AVB & DANTE). Anything that handles sound in the Adobe suite supports ASIO and most major DAW's that operate on Windows also primarily use ASIO. AVID eventually gave up on Digidesign audio driver (for non hardware accelerated systems) and moved across to ASIO. However as Resolve now does its 'Clean Feed' monitor window without the need for specific hardware, and factoring in the incredible functionality that comes in the free version of Resolve, it appears BMD are focused on making Resolve as widely accessible as possible.ĪSIO drivers have certainly established themselves as the most successful, low-latency audio hardware driver system. BMD would of course want Resolve to work best when using BMD / Fairlight hardware. Yes, until recently I would have agreed with that.
