Description

This tool can manualy correct wrong calculations of Ableton "delay compensation". Somehow Ableton compensation equal wrong and the recorded audio is placed befor the right grid point. This tool generates a simple midi delay, to correct this (manualy)

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 midi/instrument rack. Ableton itself always "forgets" the settings when loading or copying saved templates in its onboard settings. I also had some problems with the Ableton tools (external audio or external instrument) that generate some wired, unpredictable additional latency.

Instructions: The tool is placed on a midi track. All following actions (send to hardware, send to a audio recording track, send to another midi track) than are corrected. Midi recordings (on the same track of tool) are not affected.

It only works if you switch the "delay compansation" ON (at the Ableton options)

Note: This tool is designed for static use; dynamic modulation will result in dropouts.
