there are two answers:

1) RTAS plug-ins operate at a lower latency on a native-only system. This is technically because they don't have to stream out of the DSP mixer, into host processing, and back into the DSP mixer. Those two steps each incur one buffer's worth of latency.

2) ADC

Interesting.

So are the sample delays of RTAS in native more similar in number to TDM numbers on HD systems?
