tonnie,

This is how I understand ASIO and MME... (if I'm wrong, I imagine someone will correct me soon smile )

There is no difference in sound quality between ASIO and MME. The difference is in the signal getting from the soundcard to the speaker. ASIO is much faster.

If you have an external instrument hooked up to use the computer soundcard when you play along with BIAB, it's likely that ASIO will be the best option because it will reduce latency.

Try the two different drivers and see which works best for your situation. If MME works fine for you, my advice is to stay with that. After being on the forum for quite a while now, BIAB generally plays more co-operatively with MME than ASIO.

At the end of the day, though, whichever one you choose, the sound quality will be the same.

Lastly, when you get your system set up, under "Options" there's the option to save your preferences. Make sure you do this. Then, if you ever need to reload BIAB, getting everything back up and running again will simply be a matter of loading the saved file.

Regards,
Noel
