[QUOTE="Nick Davis, post: 109111, member: 1713"] Re: X32 Discussion - Latency FWIW - did these rough tests a few weeks ago "out of interest just did some rudimentary latency tests using reaper as the in and out - and these should not be taken as fact - as simply reading off the offsets by eye Recorded a sine wave to a reaper track and then played back through x32 and recorded on new track in reaper ( note output from x32 was via the P16's to allow x32 processing and inserts to be included in the rerecorded track - don't know if this routing would make any significant difference suspect not). First With the reaper automatic audio driver reported latency adjustment turned OFF ( out of interest and to see how good the reaper auto latency adjustment is). the rerecorded sine wave was offset by a approximately 57.4ms - this could be card / usb / driver etc adding to the X32 processing time -see below. Measuring relative to this offset: With standard dynamics and EQ the latency was the same as without these ( as expected). With an insert effect - waves - the latency increased by approximately 1.5Ms ( but see below) With an insert GEQ the latency was less about 0.8ms. As expected with two inserts in line - i.e. via a bus ( in this case two waves) offset doubled. Repeated the above with the reaper using the reaper reported driver latency adj turned ON - to see how this impacted With no processing - the offset of the recorded sine wave was 0.6 ms ( this would ally with Behringers stated 0.7ms as the accuracy I could read off needs a little give and take). And with standard dynamics and EQ was the same. With the waves insert I got a slightly better figure than the first test about 1.2 ms but again the accuracy of my reading would need to be better and maybe do again. With the Geq - 0.8ms. Have not looked at any of the other inserts but suppose there will be some variation in the processing overhead and latency. Finally doing a test with direct output then i.e Card in and card direct out - i.e. recording back to reaper with no x32 eq/ dynamic processing/effects without reaper latency adjustment for drivers offset is 57.1 ms So the drivers etc have a latency of about 57ms With driver reported latency adjustment turned ON no offset" [/QUOTE]
