What “software layer inbetween” does ALSA have?This is technically not possible. At Windows ASIO drivers operates very close to the hardware in a way that is not possible for ALSA. ALSA has a software layer inbetween already. And is slower in any case. Everything on top of ALSA, Jack or Pipewire, adds even more latency.I use Alsa with very low latency (less than in Windows!)
The curious part is that ALSA with Jack can be faster than pure ALSA. But it cannot be faster than the fastest mode of ALSA plus the Latency that comes with Jack, which is in any case slower than ASIO.
Let's say it is enough for your needs
