Imagine what mess you'd get when each and every plugin would *not* report it's own latency to the program which needs this info to compensate for this delay. > > Christian But this is exactly what Spectral plugs are not doing! If they did what you are talking about, then when activated, the track they are being used on should not change timing wrt the rest of the tracks...But they *do* change the timing (at least in LAMP)! When I insert a spectral plug (or autotune) there is suddenly a delay on that track which needs to have *manually* set delay compensation....i.e. I do it by ear. :-( So you are right, but I don't have to imagine it...it *is* a mess. -Dan
