Mixer Delay Compensation

Summary

Mixer Delay Compensation offers a choice between:
Full
Off
This choice is made in the All Settings > Project > Mixer > Mixer Settings page along with a switch to turn Auto-
matic Compensation on or off and a slider to set the Maximum Mixer Delay Compensation .

Delay Compensation Switching

As detailed above, Compensation can be selected in the All Settings menu. It can also be toggled On/Off in the
Mixer context menu. Right click and select Settings then click on Enable Delay Compensation to toggle On or
Off.
1. Input strip set as a (normal) Input: no compensation. If a Delay is applied manually the output signal of this
strip will be delayed by the applied value.
2. Input strip used as a Bus return, i.e. patched to an Internal Bus and set as a bus return (see Input Strip Mode
on page 214 ): all other Output Strips are automatically delayed by the amount equal to the Bus internal pro-
cessing delay.
3. Input strip used as a Bus return, i.e. where the bus signal is sent outside the workstation and returned to a
physical Input: All other Strips are automatically delayed by the amount equal to the Bus internal processing
delay providing the Input is set as a Bus (see Input Strip Mode on page 214 ). If a Delay is applied manually,
for example to compensate for the delay in an external processor, the signal of all other output strips will be
further delayed, according to the value entered.
When Full is selected, Plug-in effects that correctly report their latency will also have their delay compensated.
Further, this delay will be maintained when the plug-in is in bypass mode.

Delay Compensation Indicator
A small button labeled D on the right-hand side of the mixer adjacent to the Fader line indicates the current state
of delay compensation in the mixer:
A stable green

Stable indicates that delays are not compensated.
red
Blinking indicates that you need to adjust the maximum length of delay that can be compensated in order to
achieve proper compensation.
indicates that delays are compensated.
