Hi,
AFAIK, ASIO is the name that Windows' low latency audio technology is
getting. Linux features a similar approach via ALSA (as for low latency
functionality). A hardware manufacturer stating that a particular product is
compliant with ASIO means there's an ASIO driver (Windows) available for
this product.
Cheers,
Alex
