On the other hand, everyone here uses audio and to have each track have a different amount of delay depending on which plugs are on which tracks is a COMPLETELY CHAOTIC situation!! The only solution I see, is to bounce everything track by track, and then open the audio files and make sure the first down beat is on time with sample editing. I don't know if Emagic listened to me, but I suggested this feature five years ago. And I don't think it should be that LOOK AHEAD is really LOOK AT THE PRESENT BUT DELAY EVERYTHING ELSE. You just load a buffer with 1 millisecond in advance, but play the present audio but measure off of the buffer. They can fix this if they wanted.
