Re: [PD] portaudio compatibility with some ASIO drivers (Windows only)

• the RME ASIO driver simply doesn't work, and nobody actually knows why...

However some people report to get ultra-low latencies (3ms) with the MMIO drivers. Moreover, even with the MMIO driver they can use the multi-channel capability of the RME only when set at 48000 Hz (but this is another story...). I will ask RME directly about these issues.

I can say that i've never had problems with the RME drivers, especially ASIO with various applications. If there are problems i suspect them to be related to some old portaudio code used in Pure Data. Up-to-date portaudio versions work flawlessly with RME drivers. Concerning MMIO i can hardly imagine how people can reach low latencies with it, given the architecture of this interface.
