MUTOOLS • WASAPI Support?

That is, all disadvantages with the old direct sound/ MME drivers that is pretty "delay-ish", also, according with my test, this driver (winmm.dll) has an issue with the CPU when the PC back to active from Sleep/suspend.
And ALSO, this has a limited resolution to 16 bit (my end is all minimum 24bit).

With WASAPI there's some advantages:
  • Low latency, the first motive to use :)
  • Respect the resolution of the hardware or windows settings (shared mode)
  • In exclusive mode, there could be even lower latency, and bit perfect stream.
  • In share mode is possible to work like MME without any issue.
MME / Direct sound advantages
  • Compatibility with old hardware (the only one, and makes less sense on today's PC)
  • No more.
I really don't know if this is on the FR but at least here I'm spotting some existing issues not mulab related although with windows user experience.
