Default Automatic Delay Compensation not working like it should

We have recorded a piano track, and inserted a pitch shifter plugin that adjust pitch and timbre in real-time..... unfortunately it is delaying our track by just over 7000 samples. Now, the automatic delay compensation in the playback window has 3 settings: OFF, Short, and Long. I think short says 1024 samples and long says 4024 samples?? something like that. Anyways, we set it on LONG and the track was still very much off from the rest of the song. I don't understand......does LONG mean that the delay you are getting has to be around 4000 samples for it to work?? I've read in the pro Tools manual that setting this to ON (meaning setting it to short or long?) will compensate for all delay, but it doesn't say much more than that......and it doesn't seem to be compensating our delay of about 7000 samples. Will we have to fix this manually??

Thank you!!
