Has anyone noticed that PT LE 6.7 seems to autocompensate for pluginsand when going da/ad thru an outboard piece? I must have missed the memo. I take a tone in a track, insert Autotune 4, bus it to another track and record it and it is only 38 samples late, less than 1 ms. It used to take 2000 samples! Had a client who wanted to sing through autotune, so I went to demonstrate why it wouldn't do it and was a bit dumbfounded to find we could. Brought him in thru an aux with autotune inserted and bused it to a record track. Weird!
Odder yet, with the H/W buffer set at 1024, routing a tone out the hardware and back in results in only 88 samples delay (2 ms)! This I thought would take 1024 samples at least. Am I missing something?
