EQ perhaps causing Latency and doesn't seem to be compensated

[mattyc]

ok so now i bought it to see if that would make a difference (foolish i know) and still no joy
any ideas ??

[mattyc]

also my latency seems to be 3840, more than other peoples, if anyone is reading this

Apologies for the late reply--I was in hospital last week.

The first thing to check would be how much latency Cubase thinks that Redline EQ introduces--you can get this information from Devices > Plug-in Information and then check the value of the "Latency" column.  This shd read 3840--if it doesn't try hitting the Update button and/or uncheck and re-check the checkmark in front of the Redline EQ row.

And report back here if it doesn't solve it!

No problem, hope everything was ok !
Cubase indeed has 3840 latency, what should i do next ?
it seems slighty better but i still notice if i for example duplicate an 8th note hihat and put the plugin on one and not on the other, there is a slight phasing effect
from playing around with the track offset in cubase 5 it seems to be around +8 out

That is pretty strange... just a silly hunch but could you verify that the Constrain Delay Compensation button (the 2nd at the top of the Cubase project window) is not lit?

If that's not it either, any chance you could render a short song segment with the duplicate tracks, one track w/o Redline and panned hard left, the other w/ Redline and panned hard right?  Oh, and send that to me of course.

Thanks,

Thanks for that!  Am I correct in my assumption that the R channel is the one with Redline EQ on it?

[mattyc]

yep
sorry about posting the email addy btw

[dj!]

No problem!  Just one qn for now: what host buffersize are you running at?

-- dj!

[mattyc]

today was just running a session at 2048 bufersize, same problems

[dj!]

Just for diagnostic purposes, could you try a session at 256 and see what happens?  FYI I can reproduce something similar here so there is definitely a problem with the EQ and not your setup.

Thanks,

[mattyc]

at 256 its fine here
i usually need my latency up higher by the time it comes to mixdown though

[dj!]

Great, thanks for trying that--a fix is in the make!

Take care,

[mattyc]

more developers shold be like you mate !!

Hello. I'm having the same latency problem with Logic 8.0.2 and Redline EQ 1.0.2. Could you please look into this?

Thanks!
