In reading about WASAPI, I see a lot of information about DAC's but I don't have one. I do have an M-Audio 24/96 sound card so I'm wondering if WASAPI will work in my setup? Also, I'm terribly sure what "install the plug in" means? Any ideas if I try to use it?

^ Yes WASAPI will work with any DAC you throw at it. You're terribly not sure you mean? You download the WASAPI plug-in from the foobar site, extract place the .dll it in Program Files -> Foobar2000 -> Components, then in Foobar itself go to Library -> Configure -> Playback (in list on left) -> Output and under Device select WASPI -> (Output device you want sound to come out of). That might sound slightly complicated but you should be able to follow those steps and for me its worth it, I'm sure I can tell the difference between WASAPI and DS on my setup.

Thanks for that info and I did mean not sure and I don't even know why I typed terribly. I was mostly asleep so I'll blame it on that.

Under the original configuration this was my output source, "DS: Line 1/2 (M-Audio Delta Audiophile)"  After following the directions I chose, "WASAPI Line 1/2 (M-Audio Delta Audiophile)".  When I attempted to play something I got this message, "Unrecoverable playback error: Device in use (0x8889000A)"  Any ideas?

I don't think WASAPI has as much to do with the DAC as it does the sound card, os and drivers in your computer.  I am using J River and am using WASAPI Event.
 
If you are getting this device in use error, try to find a checkbox for the driver that allows a program to take exclusive use of the driver.
