Is there delay compensation in Mixcraft?

[cactus-head]

...The daw uses the measurements to automatically adjust to compensate for this and the results should reflect this when you overdubs audio.

This is what you've been saying. Then I was indeed misunderstanding your point.

I couldn't fathom how you could think there could possibly be a .7ms latency in a system where the minimum latency was already 2.7ms. It is just physically not possible. You're talking about a computation by the DAW to adjust the position of the recording backwards by N number of milliseconds based on the true latency reading of the audio driver. ...and the ability to turn on and off such functionality. I didn't think you were talking about delay compensation but were saying that Mixcraft had higher latency than any other DAW (which isn't true).

Mixcraft, Waveform and Harrison don’t seem to have the ASIO information or adjustments.

Micraft has this unless you're talking about something else:

Did test again:

Focusrite solo 4th gen USB ASIO
tempo 120 / sample rate 48kHz / buffer 256
roundtrip latency 25,9ms / 1242 samples (safe mode)

cabled RTL test, heaphones to line in.
used acoustica studio drums (kick sound)
got 3 different latencies 5ms / 11ms / 21ms as on pic.
seems that different recording takes give different latencies which is strange. Mostly its 5ms but sometimes can be those others.
If this RTL test is accurate to test delay compensation and all those should be under 1ms latency, then question mark arises.

Testing again:
Addictive Drums 2 as instrument, tempo 100
Pro Tools Intro: delay compesation ON 10ms OFF 13ms
Mixcraft test on pic, having various results on different takes.

Cactus Head. Look closely at my screen shots of the other Daw’s. The show you your input and your output as well as some the total of the two. This is what is called reported round trip latency.
This is what your Daw will use to adjust the synchronization of overdubbed audio to place it correctly on the timeline.

Mixcraft , Waveform and Harrison do not show this information on the Audio driver screens. Sonar, Next, Cubase and Studio one do. Those are the daw’s Im currently evaluating.

The loop back test reveals that only Mixcraft was late by an abnormal amount. It is normal for the test to reveal that your drivers figures are out by a few samples. But they definitely should not be wrong by the amount revealed by Mixcraft.

Passionpasi- have you tried your test using a different Daw? Waveform is free. And there’s lots of demos available for all the others.

Having Mixcraft and Pro Tools Intro on my older laptop for testing purposes.

Primary computer has only Mixcraft.

Pro Tools Intro: delay compesation ON 10ms OFF 13ms and they didnt change on different takes.
