Note: Portable version have two skins, DarkOne v4.0 and v3.1. You can change skins between DarkOne 4.0 and 3.1 or to default skin and it has wasapi component include change skins goto file-preference-display-columns UI (and see right side)-import (fcl importing and exporting) and goto where your foobar portable place. Differences between WASAPI and ASIO / Kernel Streaming from foobar2000 user’s perspective. Requires Windows Vista or Windows 7 - not available on Windows XP or older. Works with more soundcards - contrary to e.g. ASIO, it doesn't require any special support from soundcard's manufacturer, other than providing a Windows Vista compatible driver.

First off this works .I could not get stability with the offical component.Now i am hoping before i tweak it I could be put right on how to configure/tuning : Renderer::InitAudioClient - endpoint buffer size is not explicitely configured. keep the preferred size returned by the device - preferred endpoint buffer size = 884 Renderer::InitAudioClient - chunk size not aligned on endpoint buffer size - chunk size = 4096 , endpoint buffer size = 884 ASIOGetLatencies (input: 884, output: 1768 As is is this stable and works great ...Many thanks Need to udate has I have the issue now off system sounds messing with playback...grrrrrr though by far not as bad as the default driver or even asio4all.Its beaten me again..... if anyone could help with this( i am going to swop out the sc when my small factor case arrives) as im now back to wasapi default as tthe version from here just crashed on loading.....
Initially I had a lot of trouble to get this plugin to work, however instead of just writing a negative review I thought it would be a good idea to contact the dev, via the ticket section. He was very helpful and provided clear instructions on what I needed to do, to help him diagnose the issue with the plugin. This required patience as there were a number of reasons as to why this was not working on my setup. In the end It now work! and it is a stable as the official ASIO plugin. Was it worth going thru the hassle? Indeed it was, the sound quality is much better. Plus this made me feel part of the development of this plugin. I strongly suggest before writing a negative review, open a ticket and talk with the dev so that he can progress his development on his project.
Thank you so much! This plugin solved an issue with the sound quality that I had using the official WASAPI plugin. This one works much better!
Looked like 'another' plugin to try... made me re-listen big part of my audio collection again! My E-MU 0204 USB is a stubborn piece of gadget. I own it for over 4 years and love it for excellent DAC. But it's never ever been able to play stable ASIO/WASAPI stream other then 96kHz!! All that clicks and crackles then - silence or blue screen of death... No matter what I tried: changing computers, OS versions, usb controllers, various plugins and buffer sizes. No luck. The only option was to ALWAYS re-sample to 96kHz in foobar. This thing WASAP2 made a little(big) revolution here! For the 1st time could natively play resolution of 44, 88, 96, 192kHz. After over 20 hours of continuous random listening I may say my experience is pretty stable except for few crashes due to my settings-tweaking. Still can't make it work in 176,4 and no luck with ASIO2 so far. Over all I am happy 'cause I practically got a new DAC now thanks to Didier!!! Native 192k sounds like magic here. Probably AK4396 DAC feature! ,)
My soundcard won't recognize ASIO, so wasap2 is my only option. The sound quality of the WASAP2 driver is more clear, tighter and punchier than the original foobar WASAPI driver. So I will give kudos to the developer for the excellent sound. However, there is jittering whenever I load a page on the internet; it sounds like a machine gun. I increased the buffer length by a tremendous amount in the output and advanced playback settings as suggested by the developer to another user, but the jittering is still there. The advanced playback settings are quite extensive and intimidating to navigate through. I have a quadcore processor and have no problems with the original WASAPI driver in terms of jitter. Unfortunately, I uninstalled it because of the annoying looping jitter when browsing the internet at the same time. I changed every setting to try and stop it, but I couldn't fix it. It's a shame because the sound quality is quite good. *A side note - Old Mono recordings from the 1960's won't play with this driver. You have to convert mono to stereo with the foobar plugin in the DSP manager.
