I've been tracking records for 45 years, never compressed drums and only compressed vocals just enough that compressing in the mix off tape wouldn't be excessively noisy. I don't recall ever tracking with a plug-in on the input channel.
What input buffer setting do you use on your HDX system? The studiorack completely bypasses the Pro Tools input buffer which means it is not 40 samples in addition to the Pro Tools buffer, it is only 40 samples. That's only .1 ms more than an HDX system and .16 ms less than a HD Accel system! That's mighty impressive if you ask me, especially for native users.
