Bus Latency Compensation announced for future Logic update

[DevonB]

Just a quick reply to Devon:
I have made a couple of records bringing bounced tracks everywhere (to PT or Cubase studios). No problem.
The annoying thing is that you have to leave some empty measures at the end of the track, to be sure it's not cut. But once you know that, you should have no particular problems.

Yes, if you leave like the first 2 measures at the beginning of the project blank, you're golden. Try that once you've done freeze on your tracks? It ain't happening. I just find it hard to believe that we're up to version 7 and version 4 had this same problem and is STILL doing it. Drives me nuts when I drag a full wav into Cubase to add tracks to it from Logic and I have to drag the wave around to get it to line up.

Devon, you know you can have logic bounce starting at bar 0 or bar -1 right?

Which version has this? Was it 5.5 or before?

oh no idea which version had this first... i'm a relatively new logic user and never owned any pre-7 version.

Discovered it by accident when i was changing my cycle start point from the transport window.

Ah, well that's helpful. Can you do that when you have frozen tracks too out of curiousity? I no longer have Logic, so I can't check.

I've had Logic since 4.7, and this ability has been there since then. Probably well before.

Yep. You can always move the start point backwards. The frozen tracks will just play from the beginning point of the freeze. (which would default to bar 1)

Am I missing something here or is Bus Delay Compensation different than Plug-in Delay Compensation? If they are the same, that's sad. I thought Logic had this before Steinberg introduced it in SX2. If this is all true, I sure am glad I'm a Cubase guy... (except I wish I had some of the plugs that come with Logic... DAMN!)

Bus compensation is a subset of plugin delay compensation.

Basically plugin delay comp means that the sequencer compensates for any delay introduced by any plugin.

Bus Delay compensation means that the sequencer compensates for any delay introduced by any plugin on a bus...

So instead of full PDC, Logic for the longest time had delay compensation only on audio and audio instrument channels.

Logic will soon have Full PDC, which includes the limited delay comp it has now, and the bus delay comp it will soon have.

Now that I'm starting to think about it, I seem to remember Bar 0. I haven't used Logic in about 2 years now (well, besides to check out ES2 and Scupture real quick) so the ol' memory is fading. I'll pass that info along though.

Is it gonna work on hardware Fx too??
