Hi Izmar, You are very welcome to the OpenJDK team! And thank you for sharing your ideas on how to improve JavaSound. Before you start, could you tell us more about WASAPI(shared)? What are the advantages over DirectSound? I am not sure we can use WASAPI(exclusive) and block everything else on the system.

I recently joined OpenJDK after concluding that the Java Sound API seems to have no way to speak WASAPI. In the OpenJDK sources that I checked I was only able to find PLATFORM_API_WinOS_DirectSound.cpp and no WASAPI variant of a similar file. To my knowledge WASAPI should give us much lower latency than DirectSound, regardless of whether shared or exclusive WASAPI mode is used. Additionally DirectSound has been deprecated for quite some time. If the only impediment to have WASAPI is that someone should build it, I would like to work on this.
