Well, Don, I use BiaB quite a lot for radio broadcast purposes, theme songs, jingles, ads, plus for Industrial Music clients. That's the real base money for my little ome studio operation, not being into the current popsong marketing at all.

BiaB is an incredible tool for that.

One thing to realize about ASIO vs Windows Sound WDM is that both will make *identical* PCM digital audio files when presented with the identical inputs.

The only real advantage to using ASIO drivers has to do with latency time of monitoring when actually recording tracks. Especially true when attempting to use softsynths, software samplers or VST/DXi effects in realtime while recording, the use of ASIO is not really necessary when we are simply creating tracks with BiaB for export to a DAW program. So I keep Band in a Box set to MME (WDM) at all times anymore, leaving the ASIO drivers open and available for the use of whatever full-fledged multitrack recording DAW software I've choosed to use for a particular project and have no problems using it that way.
