Latency issue with effect automations

[DJNEO]

Hi guys,
perhaps someone can help me with this:

for example I try to automate the volume parameter of an utility effect that cuts the volume every twice 16th bar, I wonder why it isn't synchronized with the track... now I change my global latency to an high amount and its causing the automation to be delayed..... in other words, when i put the latencies to the smallest amount my automation is synchron with the beat, but when i higher the latencies it's not!

so automation-curves depend on the latency, which is a hugh problem for precise work.... you know what i mean?

I have just discovered this automation timing issue.

I had every snare hit with an automated send to rverb. When I changed the latency settings to 1024 the automation did not "catch" the snare!

Is there any light that can be shed on this? I hate to think everything can sounds so drastically different by changing the latency?

I thought Live COMPENSATED for latency?????

Bump,anyone? help? please?

thought i'd bring this topic up again.
i have the same problem -- at higher latency rates the automation is not in sync and it's quite hard to arrange tight parameter changes like that.
-- especially as this delay changes anytime i change the latency.
i made the latency rate now part of my project names
but it would be nice if it worked the way it should?

ah yes, and i do have latency compensation switched on

nice idea to name the project files with the latency amount....

But it seems there's no solution for this, I think the problem lays in the core programming of live, but it's somehow embarrassing for such a brilliant program

Live only does plugin delay compensation for audio, not midi or automation. It sucks, the Abe's know it sucks and it's on the to do list (it's a looooong list though).
If you do a search, there's a big thread about it somewhere.
