Someone shall start making funny memes about the latency beholders. Ruso already has a good candidate for the first one
cheer up sleepy Jean. Oh what can it mean?Someone shall start making funny memes about the latency beholders. Ruso already has a good candidate for the first one
I don’t feel latency while playing with the axe only . I was talking “in general”. When I plugged it in the soundcard or whatever there is a very very small delay . But I never complained about the “internal latency”. Don’t feel it .You do realize that FAS modelers have even less 'latency' than their real world analog counterparts right?
Yes, analog components do also collectively introduce latency
I have some, but always regret posting them. Why bother, play guitar, enjoy.Someone shall start making funny memes about the latency beholders. Ruso already has a good candidate for the first one
Do you have any figures for latency induced by analog components in a “typical” guitar amp? Or are you factoring the speed of sound and standing x feet away from a source into your comparison?You do realize that FAS modelers have even less 'latency' than their real world analog counterparts right?

I think enough firmware updates have passed that it’s “normal” for the Factory presets to need updating and for some to not sound great.Factory preset number 16 (Euro) sounds very sharp with the new firmware and no longer harmonious. What do you all mean?
and/or wanna save some CPU, too.and just using the boost type in the amp block (if you are latency sensitive)
I start feeling (but still not hearing it) around 12ms
Reminds me of an experience I had in my early days.....(pre wireless). I made a 50' guitar cord so I could zoom out into the crowd. We were playing highway star and when I got out there, I was really hearing things after the fact....talk beyond latency and into the delay realm. Needless to say, I went scurrying back to the stage. Lesson learned.A completely unscientific, but practical, latency test I once performed consisted of a 25' guitar cord and a 4x12 in a large, open studio.
I'd stand a couple of feet facing the front of the 4x12, play, and walk backwards until I could feel the latency starting to throw me off.
I found that starting around 14 feet is where I'd start to notice a 'disconnect' which is ~12mS.
It was also interesting to note how much a 4x12 'throws' it sound via the same experiment; you start to walk back and at about 7'+ you can really hear the cab open up...any closer then that and the sound was noticeably less 'weighty' and toppy. Gotta get away from the cab to hear those long wavelengths I guess. Similarly, I did the same thing with an Ampeg SVT/8x10 cab; moving closer/away from the cab was very revealing of how huge the perceived changes in sound/tone were in a fairly small overall physical range.
imagine an orchestra spread across 50+ft.! Dunno but I guess the conductor's gestures which arrive to the musician at the speed of light helps with otherwise maybe getting thrown off by the sonic latency of other instruments getting heard x ms later.Reminds me of an experience I had in my early days.....(pre wireless).

That's the one of the reasons an orchestra has a conductor; to "kill" the latency between musicians.imagine an orchestra spread across 50+ft.!

Or huge venue PAs where ancillary speakers in the audience must be delayed to match the main PA speakers depending on the distance between them.
Interesting stuff.
