This project includes a new USB Audio Class 2 (UAC2) driver, optimized for low-latency musician scenarios. It also includes an ASIO interface to the UAC2 driver to support applications which use the ASIO standard. This driver, and its supporting components, will be shipped in Windows.

There is no public release of the driver, yet. This section will be updated with the Windows Insider Build information once the driver preview ships in Windows.

I am constantly astounded by the state of Windows audio for interfaces. Still having to use different ASIO implementations when MacOS just lets you stack aggregate interfaces like it’s nothing.

MacOS is just amazing in this regard. I remember accidentally having the output going to HDMI and remembering the latency being not that bad.

So someone at Microsoft is vibecoding an ASIO4ALL copy got it ;) Well, it's about time I guess. Too late for me tho.

One thing that surprised me about my switch to linux is that my nvidia driver no longer conflicts with my audio interface and I can switch between the two without even needing to refresh web pages or other applications. Windows actually BSOD'ed a couple of times because of it.
