Hey Cybo,
Indeed, if you don’t need low latency, don’t get BBP ASIO!
Also, it’s not really an upgrade — it’s a different product. To be an upgrade, BBP ASIO would have to support all features that BBP does.. It doesn’t! BBP ASIO cannot use standard sound devices other than for the RDS/SYNC input — it only supports ASIO drivers.
BBP ASIO *does* however have the full-latency maximum quality back-end from standard BBP as well, so that you can get that on the air while enjoying ultra low latency monitoring, with a single sound card, and single program. To accomplish this, it actually runs TWO completely separate breakaway cores internally.. One in phase linear mode (100ms latency just for the crossovers) for air, and one in low latency mode for the studio output!
BBP -> BBP ASIO was NOT an easy code change to make, I guarantee it. Those 4 letters took an incredible amount of time. 🙂
Best,
