Default Re: RTAS in realtime monitoring latency?

I am running 96 voices @ 64 samples on a 8 core. The lowest setting possible.

Many thanks tk.
Hi,

ADC is disabled on tracks that are in record mode. so you will get the latency of the plugin/s processing time. TDM plugs have almost negligible latency on audio tracks but some RTAS plugs can be quite high and unfortunately you have to put the rtas plug after TDM (otherwise it will go into mute!) so the latency is increased.

you could probably play chords ok but i doubt you could play a guitar solo with such latency, but also depends on how low you can get your buffer and which RTAS plugs you use, you might get just 40-80 samples delay which is livable, but some plugs give a lot more and 4000 samples wouldn't be livable.
