Re: [LAU] ArdourVST - Latency Management

Hi. I am pretty sure, that VST's have a build-in method to report their latency. I remember such a thing in the VST- SDK a long time ago and Paul Davis stated the following comment in the Ardour forum..... "reuben, actually VST has the [latency reporting] mechanism, and its LADSPA that sort of doesn’t. Steve Harris and I came up with a kludge solution for LADSPA (an output control port called “latency”), and a few other LADSPA developers supported it. in VST, its a host->plugin callback called getInitialDelay()." (source: http://ardour.org/node/761) mhmmm... that doesn't work. However, the latency of the swh plugin gets compensated like it should be. I tried several VST- plugins and always had the same problem. So it seems not to be a problem of a certain plugin. best, sebastian.
