what interface do you have ? Because with my old interface a shitty m audio I had to desactivate the plugins to get rid of the latency, but since I have the rme fireface it's ok
I'm assuming you're asking me
I have the Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 (seems focusrite gets alot of love around here :-)).
I don't believe that plugins increasing latency could have anything to do with the interface. That processing takes place inside the computer before the signal is returned to the interface (as long as we're talking monitoring directly through the interface rather than through the software).
Actually, I could imagine that driver issues might screw things up. But otherwise naah...
Also, the problems I've been having only started recently. I'm assuming in connection with one of the recent DAW updates.

Glad ya sorted buddy. Makes me glad I ise ProToolsHD I don't wanna be messing around hearing my guitar through different panels

Glad it's sorted

Still not ideal to track with - whilst it may not have been the route cause of your issue, it's still a latency-inducing plugin. Scroll down a bit and the guy that sells it confirms this to be the case

to be honest I wouldn't track with any native plugin due to latency. VTM is one of the highest latency plugins around

Heh.. Yeah, I had the VTM active on my 2-buss while tracking a couple of times - I recon that what done it there...
Shouldn't the DAW automatically compensate for that, though, when recording? And if not - why the heck not?

The DAW can compensate by pushing the track backward/forwards so they all align when recorded, but it can do it while you record because the plugin needs so many samples to calculate its output. Thats why you hear it late when tracking with native plugins because the plugin is processing what your playing in real time. IIRC VTM has about 1000 sample delay which is alot. This is where DSP recording systems come in to play something like AAX DSP and the good old fashion TDM you can record with loads of plugins on a track and the latency is minimal due to it all being independent of the computer.

yeah, but the problem I've been having hasn't been latency DURING recording (i.e. I use latency free monitoring on my interface) - but when playing back the newly recorded track, the waveform is shifted inside the region I just recorded. So the latency is in the system, so to speak. I would think the DAW should have been able to shift the region's content automatically so it lined up...
-
If the waveform is not in the right place then that is strange. When the DAW compensates for latency it shouldnt move the wave forms around it should just delay the tracks using automatic delay compensation so the are all starting/stopping at the same time according to how many samples a plugin needs to calculate its process

Yeah this is also something I've experienced with Logic, but only with a specific, slow disk, as I wrote earlier in the thread. Not all hard disks were created equal, even when they have the same paper on specs, I might add!
