Hi,

Have your delay comp set to long!
delay comp is influenced a lot by the hardware buffer setting!! the higher the buffer setting, the longer the delay caused by plugs. its a balance between the right buffer setting for your needs and whether the plugins that you use can operate on lower buffer settings, some of the high processing plugs don't like or won't work on very low buffer settings. i use 512 buffer setting and it works fine for most things. If i am programming or playing in live parts i will lower the setting or disable delay comp on just the track i'm playing.

Its a very complicated subject and you need to read the entire section of the manual relating to delay comp. then read it again
