i just think the ASIO2 modules are newer than the ASIO or ASIO1, hopefully some one can explain the technical benefits as i don't know.

from a news page back in 2001

ASIO2 brings what Steinberg calls Direct Monitoring and Positioning Protocol to the party. Direct Monitoring delivers low-latency monitoring by sending the audio signal from the monitored input directly back to a specified output on your audio hardware. This means the signal doesn't pass through the program, so there's virtually no latency when monitoring the audio. Positioning Protocol provides sample-accurate synchronization between Cubase VST/32 and external devices. Of course, your computer's audio interface must have an ASIO2 driver in order to take advantage of these features.

I use ASIO1 because I want to record and playback 32-bit integer. The two drivers seem to perform different. ASIO1 performing better. I don't need the features ASIO2 deliver, not when it reduces quality.

Recording 32-bit int via ASIO1 equals VDAT at 32-bit.

ASIO2 Has the high-light features as follows:
1> VSTi
2> MIDI Event Processing
3> Offline Processing
4> Virtual Speakers Arrangement (Surround sound))
5> Panlaw setting (V2.3)
6> Others (GUI/Editor/Automation Host <--> Plug, Etc)
Hope this helps,
