I talked to the main-devs (was it steve harris) one or several times. As far 
as I remember the 10ms delay is because of the math in either the EQ or the X-
over for the compressors, don't remember exactly which. And there is probably 
no way to cirumvent that.

Hmm, maybe DSP-expert Fons has something in his toolbox?

Well, I have seen people use a three-band studio compressor from the 
mastering-rack on tour for foh. And everyone uses a 31band EQ live (or at 
least should). So I actually tried to use jamin as master-effect once. Worked 
okay from the sound-perspective but the musicians and speakers complained 
about the delay (was a rather small room).

For me too!

But that doesn't let me stop dreaming. :-)

Have fun,
