Audio differencies "factory vs asio4all"

[keypax]

Just wondering. Will there be some differenices in sound if i use factory drivers or this asio4all? I am not into this stuff so just asking.

Just to mention that this asio4all is absolutely amazing. I have drivers from terratec and they dont eve come close to this small beast. ;D

No difference in audio whatsoever. A sample is a sample, it's a number and there's 44160 of them every second for CD quality audio. ASIO is just a way of getting them from the hardware to the software and back again - it won't change the numbers or how many of them there are in one second of audio.

But a crackle IS a crackle...
