Go to the DELL audio driver for Realtek download (The description should say ‘Added the support for Audio Stream Input/Output (ASIO) driver protocol’).

Installing 3rd party drivers is experimental and always at your own risk. How to download & install Realtek ASIO drivers:Īttention: Before installing I recommend to make a full backup of your computer system. The ASIO driver is more or less an “add-on”, which enables direct access for professional audio/video-software to the device.

The installed Realtek HD Audio driver is not replaced. Of course I had some doubts in the first place but turned out the ASIO driver also works like a charm on my HP and on other computers such as ASUS etc. Sidenote: ASIO is a professional audio standard (similar to Apple Core Audio) and enables media software to have direct access to the audio hardware.Īfter a lot more research I finally found a dedicated ASIO driver for Realtek in a driver pack for DELL laptops. None of them really improved the audio performance of my system. 🙂 Then of course I tried generic ASIO drivers such as ASIO4ALL and the FL Studio ASIO driver. Since it wasn’t really handy to always use an USB audio, I started to try a few things: At first I contacted Realtek and HP if they can provide an official ASIO driver but turned out that support staff did not even understand what an ASIO driver is. So it was pretty obvious: The problem was caused by my integrated Realtek HD audio device, which didn’t have a native ASIO driver. Whenever I used an USB audio interface with ASIO support, the performance was like 10x better.

Since I got my HP ProBook I was pretty happy except for one problem: Multimedia apps such as Premiere Pro, FL Studio, Cubase or Studio One always had serious performance problems (high latency, CPU spikes and dropouts). ASIO is usually available for professional studio hardware only, but also for Realtek integrated sound devices aka. For music production and video editing an ASIO driver can boost your system’s performance.
