To view the latency introduced by plug-ins go to the bottom left hand corner of the Mix view, click on the small black/grey box and select ‘Delay Compensation’.

Here you will find 2 values; ‘dly’ is the amount of latency introduced by the plug-ins on that channel and ‘cmp’ is the number of samples Pro Tools is delaying the other channels by. If the ‘dly’ value is less than the 4095 set in the Delay Compensation box then you don’t need to worry and everything will be compensated for.

As you can see in the picture above the ‘kc merged’ channel has 1 Duende channel strip loaded onto it, therefore Pro Tools is automatically delaying the other channels by that amount (1028 samples) to ensure all audio is kept in sync.

If the total latency on a channel exceeds this maximum value the text will be red indicating that Pro Tools cannot compensate for this much latency. In this scenario the additional latency which Pro Tools cannot compensate for will have to be dealt with manually.

The value of this will be the maximum latency minus maximum latency Pro Tools can compensate for, ie 4095 samples. In this case it is:

4108 (shown in red) – 4095 (Pro Tools maximum) = 13 samples

Please refer to the ‘Compensating for latency in Pro Tools LE and M-Powered’ found in this manual for information on how to do this manually.
