About Plug-in Latency (Delay Compensation) with BIAS products.
Some users may experience “extra” samples being applied after processing with Sound Soap and/or Sound Soap Pro when using it as a plug-in within some host programs.
Many plugins will produce latency after processing which is a natural byproduct of the DSP process. This latency information is published to the host program after processing. Its dependent on the host program whether or not it will receive this information and compensate for it. Some host programs will choose to ignore this information all together. Other host programs may have a way to manually compensate for latency.
For example: Pro Tools LE does not provide automatic delay (latency) compensation to RTAS plugins. Such a feature is available to RTAS plugins in the ‘full’ version of Pro Tools when using TDM hardware. If you are using Sound Soap Pro or Sound Soap 2 within Peak, there is a way to compensate for this delay.
We should note that SoundSoap Pro 1.1 and SoundSoap 2.02 will compensate for latency when used as an Audio Suite plug-in within Pro Tools. Registered users of Sound Soap Pro and SoundSoap 2 can download a free update.
A Windows update will follow shortly.
