I'm in favour of moving the "Latency" panel into Devices Preferences, then the two values in the Latency panel would depend on host. This would have the advantage of making clear that Audio to buffer affects playback as well as recording, which is currently a very important issue on Mac O...

As far as I know, in Audacity WASAPI only works in Loopback mode where you are recording the output from your soundcard. That's for recording streaming audio or internal computer sounds (i.e. "What-You-Hear" from your computer speakers.) Actually it depends on you computer and drivers. My...
