Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
Oh man, I've written novels about it. In fact we spent an hour looking into this just yesterday. It's ridiculous.

Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
I'm not using any aux tracks but the rhythm trax slide off the click generated in protools by the end of a 3 minute song. Something is severely wrong with delay comp.

Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
We have been waiting for basic delay compensation issues to be fixed for close to 2 years now. It seems to me that delay compensation is not build into the PT sw architecture (PT did not use to have it contrary to all other DAWs) but it is poorly patched on it, tweak here and another there, hard to keep it all together. Maybe a rewritten PT 13 will fix these rudimental issues finally.

There is a nasty storm going on here, so I've shut down my studio. I will run some more tests when able, probably in a couple days.

Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
2 years? It's not worked properly since its introduction many, MANY years ago.

Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
What you guys are describing is consistent with how ADC works to my knowledge and this is not a bug.
By default, Virtual Instrument tracks have ADC suspended. That allows them to make a sound as soon as the person hits the keyboard. MIDI events always come out immediately. The PT defaults are set up for performance where it is assumed that you want a VI to respond immediately. You can see that Instrument tracks have had ADC suspended because the track delay has been forced to be 0. So as you add plugins anywhere, to any tack, that add long delays, ADC will simply add the delay to all tracks to compensate - except for tracks were ADC has been suspended, which is what happened to your Instrument track. To force delay compensation to be applied to a track where PT has suspended ADC, you do what PT Lover says. By command-ctrl-clicking on the track compensation window you are forcibly applying ADC to that track. This is similar to the OPs problem where ADC had been suspended by PT to keep the tracks at low latency. But then by overriding low latency, ADC was now applied. Just be aware that now that you are using ADC on a Instrument track, you will have latency when tracking if you use long delay plugins anywhere in the session. You can change the default preferences to force ADC on these Instrument tracks so you don't have to chase them all down. Under Preferences/MIDI/Delay Compensation... Check the box next to: MIDI Notes and Controllers

Re: Still experiencing delay compensation bugs in 11.3
DC-Choppah, there are quite a few misconceptions in your post.
Quote:
Forget recording scenarios for now - this is about sync'ed playback, regardless of the complexity of the session, and types of plugins involved. Quote:
If I bypass the delay report on that instrument track, the cmp value jumps up, and tremolator syncs properly to the session tempo. This is a major problem, and a horrible way to work. Another thing is that even though the cmp value can have a value of 0 on the instrument track, and sound fine, then how come the notes play way too early when I bypass it? Bypassing zero compensation shouldn't matter. Something isn't right here. Quote:
If you Ctrl+Cmd+click the cmp value, you are effectively bypassing any delay compensation for that track. It will turn gray, and play back too early. Quote:
The bottom line is that MIDI sync'ed plugins behaves badly, and we're forced to find workarounds to make it work. This is a major problem. We really shouldn't have to think about this at all, in my opinion. It should just work.

When I learned how to work with PT11 and ADC, one source was the book: ProTools 11 Music Production, Recording,Editing and Mixing by Mike Collins. On page 249 he quotes Avid Solution Specialist Simon Sherbourne saying: 'Instrument Tracks and Auxes that contain a virtual instrument with MIDI routed to it always show 0 as their compensation, and MIDI is always kept in time dynamically at the point of playback.' Zero compensation value means that ADC has been suspended during playback. This explains all the symptoms you guys are describing. I am with you that what you are describing is a playback issue, not a recording issue. Very different than what the OP's problem was, which was about low latency monitoring during recording.
