Default Delay compensation problems when using H/W io

While mixing a track my bass and drums have become slightly out of sync. I was using 2 io's, one to a spring reverb and one to a distressor. When I removed them the tracks went back in sync. I'm on an HD native system. I am not seeing any red indicators when I check the delay compensation. I encountered a similar problem sometime back when I was using Waves Bass Rider on a track.

Look for a send that doesn't have an actual complete path. On my rig, this little goof adds almost 2000 samples of random delay compensation.

It seems you're using outboard/hardware effects. Have you calculated the round trip latency and entered that value here?

Setup > I/O

Click the H/W Insert Delay tab

Type a value, in milliseconds, in the field corresponding with the input.

See the Reference Manual on how to determine your hardware's latency.

Thanks for the reply . I should have mentioned that I followed the manual and calculated the latency. It showed no latency.

PTHD with Digilink I/O will compensate automatically.

What's your interface?

Cool, so Avid I/O. You shouldn't have to do anything if it's all set up right.

Post the session (Dropbox etc) without audio so we can try to figure it out.
