Hello!
I've been having a latency issue in (what appears to be) all of my sessions for a few months it seems like, and the problem's a little something like this:
- Latency on some, but not all MIDI and/or Audio tracks, causing even quantized notes/sounds to not be playing at the same time as the click and other tracks
- Some tracks seem to be delayed, and some seem to be moved BACKWARDS in time? (Is it rushing, or dragging??)
To work around this problem, I've been manually dragging problematic tracks by whatever small interval I need to until they align, but sometimes the latency is small enough that I don't notice until I've already bounced the track, at which point I have to go in and fix the issue, and bounce again.
The sessions I'm working in are large, have multiple hundred MIDI tracks (not all active simultaneously), often times several audio tracks, and have fairly complex routing.
- I'm routing all strings, brass, woodwinds, etc, each to their OWN busses, then to one PRE-OUT bus. I'm also routing all percussion (high, mid, low) to their own buses, and then one ALL PERC bus. All reverb/delay sends are grouped with their respective category; instruments to PRE-OUT, percussion to ALL PERC.
- There are some tracks that are going directly to PRE-OUT (tracks that don't fit in any particular category; mostly synths and things like that), but NONE going directly to stereo out.
I'm running a Mac mini 2018 with 6-core processor, 64GB RAM. Any ideas about this would be greatly appreciated!!
