6.1. FooBar 

 
To use FooBar with WASAPI under Windows 7 it is necessary to download the DLL for 
WASAPI from the FooBar2000 website and install it in the Components sub-folder inside 
FooBar2000 main folder in your hard disk. The DLL can be found at 

http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_wasapi

 (click on Download). It is a 

zip folder which contains the DLL. Extract it from the zip and copy to the Components 
folder. 
Then, restart FooBar, go to the File/Preferences/Playback/Output window and set 
parameters as in figure 17.
