Automatic Delay Compensation?
Greetings,
I am considering cross-grading from PT LE 8 to 9. As I understand it, PT 9 has "Automatic Delay Compensation", but I have had this explained to me two ways...that this means it will compensate for plug-ins which create delay issues, like Drumagog, or that this will prevent latency issues when playing along with a session. Does automatic delay compensation fix one or both of these issues? My primary objective was to simplify the use of drumagog, but I didn't know if I was correct in my understanding. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! -Dax |

Re: Automatic Delay Compensation?
I'm not a pro tools user (yet) but here is how delay compensation works.
When you insert a plugin, there will always be latency as the audio has to go through the plugin and out again. As far as I know, the previous versions of Pro Tools didn't "automatically compensate" for this. And so you had to adjust the delay to get everything in sync again. With ADC you don't have to do this anymore, Pro Tools will automatically do this. I may be wrong, but that's what I know. |

Thanks for your interest in Drumagog in PT. Yes, Pro Tools 9 LE added plugin delay compensation for plugins. If you turn this on and set it to "Long", Drumagog will playback in time with your project and you will not have to drag/nudge your track back manually. Depending on how many plugins your track is compensating for, check your delay indicator next to the track. It is compensating for delay if the indicator is green. It will turn red when it has gone over the allotted amount of delay and will not compensate for any delay. Cheers, Jack |

Re: Automatic Delay Compensation?
Yes indeed, BUT, not all interfaces offer LLM(Low Latency Monitoring), and does LLM compensate for Plugin latency, or only buffer latency?

Re: Automatic Delay Compensation?
the operative detail here, is that when a track is record enabled in LLM mode it's sends and inserts are automatically put into bypass, since they can't be used in this mode.

Re: Automatic Delay Compensation?
That's not accurate. You can leave on all the plugins on all tracks except the stereo master in Samplitude, Cubase/Nuendo, Logic and there is no such issue when tracking.

Re: Automatic Delay Compensation?
There's something I don't understand about delay compensation when tracking.
When I record-enable a track and record on it, ADC turns off on this track to avoid extra latency and allows me to play in sync with my mix. So if I record my track perfectly in time, then when I will disable the record button on my track, ADC will turn on again on this track. And then apply the delay compensation my sessions requires to this track. Then my "well-synced" recorded audio track will be delayed, and then be too late?! And what if I record a track which go thru a bus? Then it's the bus which is delayed. Then when I record my track, the bus will stay delayed. Then what have I to do? Please..... Can anyone explain it to me please? Much appreciated... |
