<![CDATA[Current status of ASIO and WASAPI Exclusive]]>What's the current status of ASIO support and WASAPI Exclusive on Windows?
I use a Delta 1010 studio sound card with full ASIO support.
I won't use any of the standard Windows drivers as they don't sound anywhere near as good as ASIO. I want to avoid the Windows mixer system altogether, although I understand that WASAPI Exclusive does not use that? or at least you can set the correct sample rate in exclusive mode. Is that correct?

I have used Stawberry in the past on Linux with ALSA and it was very good.
I particularly like the playlist support and functionality in Strawberry.
I don't want to pay out for a Windows version and find out it won't do ASIO or at least WASAPI EXCLUSIVE.

I'm quite happy to test out beta versions if you want a tester?
As it stands now I have bought the latest version which gives me no benefit than to the last free one for my use case.

ASIO worked last time I checked, but not without resampling the audio.
It's a high priority to fix this.

I have tried every combination of ASIO and WASAPI Exclusive mode and I CANNOT get any sound out of my sound card.
I'm extremely dissapointed. I'm no better off than with ver 1.023.
@jonas I will be looking for a refund.
