Home Computer Audio Asylum

Music servers and other computer based digital audio technologies.

Why would Windows Audio related services be running at all....

on a machine dedicated to quality audio playback?

Both mentioned registry keys pertain to Multimedia Class Scheduler Service, which is only needed, if one of the following output methods is used:

- DirectSound
- WASAPI

I thought that subject of suitability, or rather lack thereof, of either of those for quality audio reproduction was closed a few years ago, shortly after WASAPI was introduced in Windows 7.

Has anything changed recently?
