Manual Delay Comp Problem

[WinTaper]

I believe 1 sample offset is correct for digi interfaces. Theoretically you cannot be reading and writing the same sample at once, hence the 1 sample delay.

The problem is difficult to explain and many people are totally unaware that it happens.

FYI. Once you've recorded an overdub, you can change the "user offset" delay at the bottom of mix view strips to -X where X is you offset and all will line up on playback. In my case, its -72.

Don't forget to change it back to 0 before recording on that track again - or you offset will get worse. Negative values push the wav file back when recording. Kinda like what we're asking for - but in the opposite direction!
