Xiaowenn Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Is there still a latency in the track of the Cake Walk Sonar after the plugin is closed (only closed, not deleted)? Does Cakewalk sonar have a plugin sleep function similar to other DAWs, which means that there will be no delay when the plugin is closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 @Xiaowenn if you have effectively disabled a plugin by turning it off, if that is what you mean by closed, then it is not active, therefore not contributing any processing load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msmcleod Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Delay compensation is still in place when you bypass a plugin, otherwise you'd get glitches every time you toggle bypass/enable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But PDC gets recalculated when playback is restarted, and the contribution of any plugin that's disabled in the bin will be eliminated at that point. 8 hours ago, Xiaowenn said: Does Cakewalk sonar have a plugin sleep function similar to other DAWs, which means that there will be no delay when the plugin is closed In addition to disabling the plugin, Sonar has a PDC [Override] button in the Mix module that will override PDC on input-monitored tracks so long as the PDC-inducing plugin(s) is/are not on that track or in its path to the ouput. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, if the plug-in is bypassed, the pdc is eliminated once you restart playback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Vogel Posted Monday at 12:16 PM Share Posted Monday at 12:16 PM The OP said “after the plugin is closed (only closed, not deleted)” which is just closing the User Interface - under that condition the plugin is still processing audio data..

I think it's just badly translated - the plugin is clearly disabled in the screenshot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
