Is there is a way to identify the exact latency in samples and then compensate? I found a way to do this is another DAW, via a loopback test and then adjust automatically . . . using my Rode AI-1 interface, my latency (64 block size for recording audio) is 460 samples, which is about 9ms.

I'm hoping there's a way to identify and correct this in MuLab, especially when using an interface for both in/out.

right click on the module (that want to figure out) >info
Then you can make it by adding a "latency generator" module and of course turn off "report latency".

I don't know if i was clear enough

Regards.

I think they're talking about IO latency (driver, interface, etc..) rather than plugin/module latency. Helps a lot when recording audio to have it compensated for latency (playing in time doesn't mean an in time recording due to latency).
My Setup.
Now goes by Eurydice(Izzy) - she/her :hug:

Hey Tommy, why don't you use the 'Audio Recording Latency Compensation' and just enter the number of samples?

I'm not sure what the number of samples is with my setup + MuLab.

Ah ok thanks.

There a litle free program called CE Latency Test Utility
It measures the total latency and reports in samples and ms
Sadlly isn't aviable anymore from the oficial web but, i have a copy... maybe... if is against the ToC the mods would delete it....
i don't know

Here's a more current one, and cross-platform.

Yep, that's better in every way. So i remove my attachement now.
Thanks Michael :tu:

Thanks so much!!

I used RTL Utility from Oblique Audio. It warned me that the noise floor was low, but still, have me a reading. I'm hoping I can calculate correctly . . . 405 samples at 48k. I think that would be 405 X 0.0002 = 8.1ms. Can someone confirm? Thx.

hi
rtl utility will give you the input and output latency
but in mutools you need to have input + output latency.
so if RTL give you 405 samples you need to put 202.5 in and 202.5 out in mutools audio latency compensation.
after there's another latency
midi latency and i don't know what value putting in midi output time shift to be in perfect midi audio phase ?
if someone have a tools like RTL but for midi latency ?
