> This is in production right now as far as I know and adds very little latency.

You're not running 20 different tracks with compression, reverb, chorus, delay + send/return tracks + sub mixes in your app. Your app has absolutely nothing to do with a DAW. You're not taking MIDI input or running virtual instruments either. Try to do that in a browser with a latency < 10ms like Cubase or Logic and see how it goes.

Again, your product has absolutely nothing to do with a DAW and its constraints, so don't try to claim it's an achievement of some sort.

I'm not sure how any of this is relevant with regards to how you build your GUI. If you have special requirements that require you to do your audio processing in native code using low level system sound APIs then there is nothing preventing you from doing so while still building web based GUI on top of it.

I'm not sure how any of your video app doing some light sound processing is relevant to the performance required for a DAW at first place either.
