I've started using the TC powercore, and find it has a quite notable latency. I've tried to tick the Plugin delay compensation (or whatever it's called) in the audio preferences, but apparently, this has no effect, not even after restarting. Any ideas? For the record: G4 800 All the ram it can take MOTU 2408 AMT8 LAP 4.8.1 thanx in advance regards monsdrum

The latency caused by the powercore was about 40 - 50 ms in my setup ( G4 Dual 450, Audiowerk 2 / Hammerfall). Logic's new plugin- delay- compensation apparently is not working for the busses or outs, only for the tracks. Insert the tc- plugin into a track and it works. If you insert the desired tc- plugin into a bus (or output object), you have to compensate in a different way.... You could run all the other tracks via a bus, into which you insert the compensation plugin, that comes with the powercore. This compensates for the latency by delaying all the other tracks. You even can even fine tune it. And then there are the midi- tracks.... This is one of the nice features that made me return the powercore to the dealer..;-) Another one was a frequent crickle and crackle just before the first start of the first audio region going to the powercore....

So you're lucky... a friend of mine who has logic and a G4 400 mac and a motu 2408 experiences the same crickle and crackle. But he doesn't care, because it's only during the count in... he always has a "dummy" region there.... To him the advantages (extra dsp, good plugins) count more than that. I can understand that, the plugins aren't bad at all indeed ..... Matthias

Very nice to know. Perhaps the UAD-1 will be a better bet once the Mac support is sorted... -- ==/==/==/==/==/==/==/==/= Paul Najar Jaminajar Music Production http://www.jaminajar.com.au

In fairnes to the Powercore, it should be pointed out that the latency problem applies to other cards as well (including the UAD-1) and the problem with noise before the first audio region were actually first reported on the UAD. As you say, there are workarounds, and the companies involved will want to get this right as quickly as possible. And besides, the sound is great from both cards. For Logic users, there is the possible bonus that the Powercore will have versions of the more resource hungry Logic plugs written for it by emagic. If it happens. cheers tomr --- In logic-users@y..., <submix@g...> wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "monsdrum" <monsdrum@m...> > To: <logic-users@y...> > Sent: Friday, February 01, 2002 8:21 PM > Subject: Re: [LUG] LAMP: Powercore latency > > > > > > Another one was a frequent crickle and crackle just before the > > first start of the first > > > audio region going to the powercore.... > > > Haven't had that problem at all with the MOTU setup... > > > So you're lucky... a friend of mine who has logic and a G4 400 mac and a motu 2408 > experiences the same crickle and crackle.
