I know it is not a cheap solution, but with an RME
Multiface you're able to use multiple clients with ASIO, MME or GSIF (even
mixed!).
i think this is now also possible with
WDM.
however, there are also some
limitations:
- all clients need to work on the same sample
rate
- the clients need to play/record from different channels.
the same channel can not be used by different clients, but you're able to route
any channel to any channel you want (on the dsp of the
multiface).

Is there anything like SoundFlower for
windows?
EMU soundcards use a driver that includes a mixer that can route
inputs to outputs. Both in and out may be real (as in jacks on your hardware)
or virtual (to connect programs to). I think you are still stuck with
one ASIO client max but I find it quite convenient. You route at will between
normal Windows audio clients.
Hardly a general purpose solution but it
could be worthwhile to keep in mind when picking a card should you be in the
market for one.
Sadly open/free programs like ChucK can't use Rewire
and I'm not sure I like Rewire's master-slave architecture.
I hear good
things about Reaper, a audio editor that can create virtual devices for
routing, it might be worth a look is that would suit your
needs.
Yours,
Kas.
