FR: Display accumulated latency in the modular view for every module

Because latency always is an issue - especially in live situations - it is important to know how much latency is added by which element.

It would be cool if there was a switch to enable monitoring the accumulated latency per module in the modular view.

So there could be two modes: one shows the full latency at the given module (accumulated, including the latency of all other following modules in the chain). An the second one just tells the latency that each module add on its own. Color coding could help to quicky see the impact of each module. Green = 0ms, yellow = 1..5 ms, orange = 6..20 ms, red = 21..n ms. These ranges should be editable.

The value for latency could be a little text box with the latency value in ms at a corner of the module.

Would be wonderful!

Great idea! With maybe a project wide total too?

Quick tip: Right-click any module -> Info.
This info pane includes the input latency, process latency and output latency for that module.

That's nice 😊
Eventually you could still allow a direct display of any of these values directly at the module and for all modules at once. With additional color coding this quickly gives an overview where the drivers for the overall latency are. Because you might want to reduce latency and don't know where it comes from. Having a direct visualisation (as a mode that can be enabled and disabled) will help to sort out the culprits.

Surely good ideas.

Another quick tip: You can assign a shortcut key to that "Info" function, that way it's much faster to inspect the latencies of a module.

Hi Jo, maybe instead of this:

Add this to your signature:
It may save you repeating this over and over again ;)

Thx for the suggestion but i prefer to explicitly link to it at relevant times only.
