[LAU] ArdourVST - Latency Management

Well, I don't know if we mean the same, but I just put the desired 
effects into the ardour-track in the mixer window. Nothing special.
Check out this mixer strip:

The plugins "Barry's Sa....", "Allpass de..." and "AM pitcha..." are the 
plugins. And that is where you can load, unload, bypass, etc. the plugins.

Hi.

I did what Lars suggested, I tried inserting the "Artificial latency" 
plugin from the swh-plugins package after the VSTs. I understood "After 
the VSTs..." as loading it into the same channel strip right after the 
VST plugins. The channel routing is now:

Audio -> Stereo Bus -> VST plugins -> swh artificial intelligence -> 
Ardour Fader/Panning ... -> Master Out.

Then I tried to change the delay value of the swh plugin. The Swh plugin 
itself doesn't produce any effect. The VSTs are still delaying the 
channel without getting compensated.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Best,
Sebastian.
