15.5. DEVICE DELAY COMPENSATION 213
15.5 Device Delay Compensation
Live automatically compensates for delays caused by Live and plug-in instruments and
effects, including those on the return tracks. These delays can arise from the time taken by
devices to process an input signal and output a result. The compensation algorithm keeps
all of Live's tracks in sync, regardless of what their devices are doing, while minimizing delay
between the player's actions and the audible result.
Device delay compensation is on by default and does not normally have to be adjusted in
any way. However, Live Sets that were created with older versions of Live will open without
device delay compensation. To manually turn latency compensation on (or off), use the
Delay Compensation option in the Options menu.
Unusually high individual track delays or reported latencies from plug-ins may cause no-
ticeable sluggishness in the software. If you are having latency-related difculties while
recording and playing back instruments, you may want to try turning off device delay com-
pensation, however this is not normally recommended. You may also nd that adjusting the
individual track delays is useful in these cases.
Note that device delay compensation can, depending on the number of tracks and devices
in use, increase the CPU load.
