The ProDriver audio system supplys you with the most reliable tools for almost any audio application, in the moment, right when you need it.

Mixer control panel(Windows) There are two different audio drivers including “WDM” (Windows Driver Model) and “ASIO” (Audio Stream Input and Output) within the ICON ProAudio audio interface driver. WDM are widely used for daily software such as media player and ASIO is mainly being used for most of the recording software such as LogicPro. The advantage of ASIO is that it has much lower latency than WDM and this is very important when you are doing recording with load of plugins.
