Description
Sometimes Ableton generates wrong latency compensation. In these cases, Ableton pulls back the recording too much, meaning it's positioned earlier than it should be.
This tool generates a simple channel delay that can correct this.
This tool has the advantage over Ableton's onboard options that it can be saved in individual track templates (e.g., a template for recording a specific hardware synthesizer) or in an audio rack. Ableton itself always "forgets" the settings when loading or copying saved templates in its onboard settings.
This tool has the advantage over Ableton's onboard options that it can be saved in individual track templates (e.g., a template for recording a specific hardware synthesizer) or in an audio rack.
Instructions: Audio tracks must always record via a second track (e.g., a hardware synthesizer inputs to track 1 (where the tool must be placed) and then sends the signal to track 2, there the corrected audio can recorded).
It is not possible to record latency-corrected audio on the same track as the device runs.
Note: This tool is designed for static use; dynamic modulation will result in dropouts.
