WASAPI is a newer Windows audio interface that is more superior and less latency than MME, which is an older and legacy audio driver. ASIO is a third-party audio protocol, also alternative and provides much less latency than WASAPI. Both WASAPI and ASIO have "exclusive mode", which bypasses the main system's audio interface but also mutes other program/application at the time.

so it just gives even lower latency than wasapi right?

Is there a noticeable difference
