i clearly understood how the 'recording delay' works in the explanations and is very nice.

i only don't know how to use in a single layout that have 3 stereo players and one recorder with 6 channels.
i'm losing few milliseconds in the beginning of the result even with buffer minimized in Plogue.
i only don't lose if i record 'on line'.
have way to use the 'recording delay' in this single layout?

thanks.

Sounds like you have too much (recording trigger) delay. More won't help. You have one player linked directly to all the others and the recorder?

player1 linked to player2 and player2 linked to player3.
player1 linked to the recorder too.

no, i'm sure in my case as i tested a good number of musics.

more buffer, more loses in the beginning of the result!
adjusting to 32 lose less but still lose!
only if i record 'online' (real time) i don't lose anything no matter the buffer size adjusted.

(thinking loud: seems that i need to delay the recorder to use 'offline processing' as the players are in sincro. ( ??? ) )

I was able to duplicate your issue using a layout with only a player and a recorder. Adding a 0dB gain bidule did not help.

Next I added delay lines between the player and recorder and set up a recording delay group.

With the delays (and recording delay) set to 100 samples, it still cut off some sound, but not as much. I then tried 200 samples and the output file was correct. This was at 44.1 kHz.

I tested a SPEC layout and it does not cut off anything in offline or on-line mode, with a 512 buffer.



I'll post on Plogue.com and maybe we can get this fixed.
