Re: cmon Avid, it's time for hardware insert bypass
Very rarely 512 is usable, but choir is a good example. 256 (at 48k) is my default setting as most of my sessions are live FOH mixing and cannot risk anything that may stop recording.
I have said over and over again that once you are below threshold of hearing echo, all is well. For me, monitoring at 512 is impossible but 256 is just fine. Rest of it is psychological, so I just test the artist, telling I fixed it with doing nothing, and most of the time -- assuming I have not mistakenly used heavy latency plugins -- the problem goes away by just telling it is fixed. If the artist still complains I go to 128 and having fixed it twice now, it always works.
There has only been one time when the drummer was so good he wanted to go to 64 setting to be happy. One time. And that was in studio so occasional hiccup can be tolerated.
