Any idea as to how to increase the ability of delay compensation? My current set up is:

Apollo 8 and Apollo x4 daisy chained with thunderbolt

Mac Mini 3.2 Ghz 6-Core Intel Core i7
PT 2021.6
Two thoughts

1. Print your VSTs and make them inactive until you want to make more changes.
2. Limiters on the master buss are notorious for greatly increasing DC. Work without them engaged until the end of your mix.

And....
I run 4 external fx processors for reverbs and delay and learned to reduce the number of plugins I use as well as the items above as I move closer to the final mix. Finally, make plugins inactive or delete them if they are not adding to the track. Good Luck
