Some effects introduce a delay which can cause tracks to go out of sync.Automatic Delay Compensation (often called Plugin Delay Compensation or PDC) automatically compensates for the effect's delay.

Automatic Delay Compensation is available in:

  • Tracks that are in playback mode. The delay is compensated if it is 10 ms or more.
  • Group and Master sections. The delay is compensated if it is 1 ms or more.
  • Effect Return sections. There is no minimum delay here.
  • Multi Effects, Stereo Effects, Parallel Effects, and Mid/Side Effects loaded in the aforementioned mixer sections. There is no minimum delay here.
  • MultitrackStudio Instruments (in playback mode).
  • The Output mixer of VST/AU plugins with multiple outputs.

Delay Compensation is NOT available in:

  • The Sidechain box of sidechaining effects (Dynamics etc.).
  • The instruments in the Multi Instrument (the effects do have PDC).
