This is a great product for people looking for an audio driver that is supported on older operating systems, such as Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/2003/Vista. 

Features:

  • Kernel-Streaming for better and faster output.
  • Low Buffer Settings for higher speeds and lower CPU overhead.
  • Input/Output settings for multiple external audio devices - a unique feature!
  • Advanced settings for the more immersive and controllable experience.

A really positive aspect of the driver is that it is free and universal, so it is open access to anyone with Windows operating systems compatible with it that also don't have the money to pay for apps or more 'high-tech' drivers.

Uses Kernel Streaming for high bandwidth and low latency communication for best results.

The title 'ASIO4ALL' is really fitting, since it is absolutely available to anyone who wants or needs to use it. Having a driver that doesn't support Audio Stream Input/Output can make it difficult to complete your audio tasks and make your computer properly communicate with your computer's speakers. All laptops and PC's are going to need some kind of audio driver to help convert the file properly inside the computer to audio that can come out of your speakers. Furthermore, it takes audio files that have been inputted into your device and makes them available for output, like when recording something with an external microphone.

The ability to use multiple external audio devices is something that is unique to only a couple of drivers and can be incredibly useful to people who have a variety of equipment that they want to work within a single sitting. The universal aspect of the driver makes it useful to a number of different people, platforms, and audio devices. Easy to install and easier to use, the software takes away a lot of troubleshooting that comes with pre-installed drivers or drivers that don't necessarily work for the devices you are trying to use - confined to pre-approved audio devices.

  • Only currently compatible with 98/Me/2000/XP/2003/Vista
  • Free for download.

ASIO4ALL is a WDM audio driver. It is a free driver. This driver only works with the oldest versions of Windows including 98/Me/2000/XP/2003/Vista.

Currently, a lot of computers are still running on the oldest Windows operating system. It becomes very difficult for them to get the necessary drivers for supporting their computers having older operating systems. Here, ASIO4ALL shines if we are thinking about the audio driver.

ASIO4ALL has kernel-streaming for a faster output. Users can tweak the Input/Output settings for multiple external audio devices. Users also get to tweak many advanced settings for a more immersive and controllable experience.

However, typical users might face difficulties in installing this old driver. In some cases, compatibility issues might arise.

This program is great for people with older computers, or who want a simple music and audio driver for their computer. It's simple, fast, and free- so you don't have to pay more for a bunch of features you won't use. It works with older versions of Windows as well, so you don't have to have everything updated perfectly in order to use it. Sounds like a good solution.
