Default Re: PT 2024.3 NEW issue MIDI LATENCY

thanks for the clarification, maybe i''l try it one more time in 2024.10.1.
but not one avid tech (of the 6 i've dealt with on this issue) has mentioned this option. my video example shows a situation where the drum beat is played in time while recording, but the midi notes are recorded late and thus playback late. i have a feeling its something else, but i will let you know after i do some tests.

In Green Mode (MIDI Delay Compensation OFF), Audio Delay Compensation is suspended for the Instrument track when its Record Enable and/or Input Monitor buttons are engaged, so that you are able to play without thousands of samples of latency, for example, when other plugins are present in the session. This behavior is identical to that of an Audio track, where engaging Record Enable and/or Input Monitoring causes Delay Compensation to be suspended for that track.

So you being able to “overdub midi VI's on songs PACKED with PLUGINS for decades” is because of this behavior. Now it is just equates to the default state and the “Green” Input Monitor button since another mode was added. So it’s not a workaround, it’s the logical default for an Instrument track.

In Blue Mode (MIDI Delay compensation ON), Audio Delay Compensation ALWAYS stays enabled for the Instrument track even when it has its Record Enable and/or Input Monitor buttons engaged. This makes it possible to trigger loops from samplers and have them play in time with the rest of the session during recording or just monitoring while playing along. This is a much more specific use case than typical VI recording. I have not found another case when this mode is useful.

I hope that makes some sense and if not I’m happy to clarify! When you open a session and create an Instrument track to use a drum VI to trigger one shots as I see in your Dropbox videos demonstrating your issue, Record enabling the track and recording in its default Green Mode (MIDI Delay Compensation OFF) should be working correctly, but it sounds like you are faced with the same issue when using any PT version after 2023.12.1.

You can toggle from Green to Blue by Control+Command+Clicking the Input Monitor button on an Instrument track, instead of having to open the track context menu and checking or unchecking it.

To clarify further, the MIDI Delay Compensation modes only affects what is monitored during recording and NOT how the MIDI notes are placed.
