Maybe the most stupid question, but maybe I will have luck and somebody has positive answer ?
where did you get those stats? I've always seen higher numbers stated (for guitar, can be noticable starting at 10-15ms) which made sense to me since distance latency is 1ms per foot - not sure most guitarists would hear/feel latency playing their tube amp 10ft in front of them.the average guitar player begins to notice latency by ~7ms, and it starts becoming a problem by 10ms.
... assuming you can get the tampons to STAY in your ears.No - and youd look like you have tampons in your ears - not very Rock and Roll!
There's a IEEE study that was published a couple of years ago measuring the affect of latency on many players of various abilities and instruments. The study was absolutely fascinating. (I am an EE that develops products for musicians, so I needed these stats for a design I was working on). As I mentioned, guitarists begin to feel it by 7ms. By 10-15ms it is beginning to affect your playing. So that may be the difference.where did you get those stats?

Sorry, it was an AEC study, not IEEE. It is called "the Effects of Latency on Live Sound Monitoring" by Michael Lester and Jon Boley. Sorry, I can't share it because I have access through subscription. But, if it is out there, this would be enough to find it.Would love to read the IEEE paper. Have you the publication number or a link? Surprised they would get into something like latency effects on musicians…
