KoordASIO, a user-friendly universal ASIO driver

If you are looking for an installer, see the GitHub releases page, or install directly from the Microsoft App Store.

Description

KoordASIO is a universal ASIO driver, meaning that it is not tied to specific audio hardware. You can use it with any audio hardware that doesn't come with its own drivers, or where you need features that aren't available with your bundled ASIO drivers. KoordASIO is a derivative of FlexASIO that focuses on WASAPI and user convenience.

KoordASIO adds an intuitive Control GUI that gives users an easy way to configure low-latency WASAPI operation without editing config files. KoordASIO focuses on simplicity, with a choice of WASAPI Shared Mode (mix ASIO audio with other application audio) and WASAPI Exclusive Mode (lowest-latency, bit-perfect operation).

Requirements

• Windows Vista or later
• Compatible 64-bit ASIO Host Applications

Usage

After running the installer, KoordASIO should appear in the ASIO driver list of any ASIO Host Application (e.g. Ableton, Cubase, Reaper). The Control GUI (KoordASIOControl.exe) can be launched at any time by clicking on the "ASIO Setup" button in your host software, or as usual via the Windows launcher.

The default settings are as follows:

• WASAPI Shared Mode
• Uses the Windows default recording and playback audio devices
• 32-bit float sample type
• 32-sample buffer size
• Minimum "suggested" latency

The KoordASIO Control GUI lets you select your Input/Output audio devices (with a link to the relevant Windows control panel), choose between Shared or Exclusive mode, disable input when not needed, present mono devices as stereo when an ASIO host expects two channels, and change the Buffer Size in steps between 32 and 2048 samples.

Troubleshooting

Hopefully KoordASIO should work seamlessly out-of-the-box for you. If you do notice problems, please create an issue on the Issues page.
