Error 2: High Latency / Delay (Plugin isn't "Real-Time")
- Cause: DAW’s buffer is too high (256+ samples) or a conflicting plugin (like Ozone or Linear EQ) is on the same track.
- Fix: Lower buffer to 64. Remove all other plugins from the vocal track. Use the plugin's "Low Latency" mode (small green leaf icon in the Waves toolbar).
Buffer Size Settings
- For tracking (singing): Set your audio interface buffer to 32, 64, or 128 samples.
- For mixing: You can raise it to 1024 samples, but Real-Time is designed for low latency.
For Ableton/Logic/Pro Tools: These usually scan on startup, but if it doesn't show up, ensure your DAW is looking at the standard Waves folder (typically C:\Program Files (x86)\Waves\Plug-Ins V[Version Number]). Step 3: Setting the Stage (Low Latency) Open your DAW Insert Waves Tune Real-Time on
- Develop a UI that allows users to easily configure the real-time tuning parameters (e.g., scale, sensitivity, threshold for correction).
