I often use an external USB audio interface (with ASIO driver), and then everything is perfect.

But when I use laptop's built-in soundcard, latency is not ok "MME/DirectX". I have to use ASIO / ASIO4ALL but then it's not multiclient.

I'm still in Win7. Are things much better with Win10? i.e.

Is there any hope for low latency with laptop built-in soundcard with Windows 10, without having to use ASIO4ALL?

Thanks.

PS: people seem to be happy with WASAPI drivers + Reaper for example (low latency out of the box), is it still unsupported in Live?

Any feedback about this?

I'm on win 10 and use asio4all. I haven't played around much with wasapi, but the few attempts seemed undesirable.

I don't think you'd see a dramatic enough improvement to warrant going out of your way to upgrade to 10 unless you had more reasons, like software compatibility, or have a solid state drive, etc.

Personally, I prefer to always go with the newest OS and just deal with it. Then complain a lot
