I find all this honestly fascinating and can't comprehend why other DAWs don't have similar plugins/tech. But if the ASIO latency is low enough you can use Reamote to play the instruments on another computer and not feel like there's too much latency. Although, in most cases you get 2x ASIO latency, so all this is usable only while mixing, not while playing and recording instruments and audio. There's no other DAW that can do all this. Want to use your outboard compressor, multi fx, distortion pedal. Use another computer as an additional DSP for your VSTs? No problem - Reamote it! Receive/send 32 channels of audio and MIDI from/to Reaper from another computer over LAN? No problem - Reastream it. No other DAW is so open and flexible and I don't think many people know what's possible to do with it.Ĭonnect 32 channels of 32-bit FP audio from another DAW or audio program? No problem - Rearoute it. I always say that Reaper is an audio OS, not just a DAW. Rearoute, Reastream, Reainsert, Reamote. More information: VB-Audio / Hi-Fi Cable & ASIO BridgeĪs a Reaper user I've been very familiar with the concept for years. The Hi-Fi Cable & ASIO Bridge for Windows is available as donationware.

HiFi cable supports all sample rate from 8 kHz to 384 kHz, 16 or 24-bits resolution (bit perfect) and up to 8 channels. It includes the possibility to read DVD with a Windows Player and spread the 6 or 8 outputs on your preferred professional audio device usually driven by ASIO Interface. Then ASIO Bridge enables every audio application, video game or whatever player, to take advantage of the ASIO device through their native Windows audio interface. But the HiFi Cable also works with the ASIO Bridge, allowing to route these virtual i/o into an ASIO Device. All incoming signals to the Cable input (Playback Device) go out to the Cable Output (Recording Device). Like the VB-Cable, HiFi Cable is a virtual audio driver (MME, DX, WDM, KS, WASAPI) working as a “Virtual Audio Cable” to connect audio applications together. VB-Audio has announced the release of Hi-Fi Cable & ASIO Bridge, a virtual audio device made to manage high resolution audio streams.Īudio Applications using regular audio devices can now use ASIO Devices through the Hi-Fi Virtual Audio Cable and ASIO Bridge.
