Yep. You may be right, and that’s what i thought at first. But with virtual instruments becoming more and more sophisticated & scripted to death, we’ll maybe have more and more of them needing some time to “read” the player’s interpretation. And that’s not as if steinberg had to code it from scratch : the delay is already implemented in cubase’s tracks, they just have to port it on the click. No big deal.
But i have the feeling you’re right : i’ll use my workaround for a loooong time, ahah.
