? VST Latency-compensation vs. different GP3 instances run at the same time?

I´m in progress to rearrange things.
i have the urge to begin to split my “Gigs” into running 2 or more instances of GP3 in parallel.
…which will become very workloady and “combersome to manage”, so i´d like to understand as much upfront as possible.

it seems within my current GP3 patch that there is a sort of latency compensation to be going on.
The Q: what happens in this regard when running several GP3 instances in parallel ?
are they all completly independent in that regard ?..which i would expect, …and hoping for that it is so.

means:
i would run a specific buffer setting,
i guess that buffer setting will apply to all GP3 instances, right ? (NO separate settings possible i guess)
but if i run VSTs that suck down the latency timing anyway in one GP3 instance, would it NOT affect another GP3 instance, right ?
( which would be here my prefered situation)

i might begin to create own VST instrument Racks/Gigs,
and send them thru own FX-only Racks/Gigs,
probably even sending the instrument-gig thru several FX-Gigs in parallel.
(…need to make things first up in my mind, to get a clear picture, how to organise this all)

Each instance of Gig Performer has its own settings.
So the latency of one instance does not influence the other instance.
On Windows be sure to use a so called Multi Client Asio Driver.
On Mac it is working out of the box.

I did a test with Blue3 in both instances.
In the 1st instance sample buffer 192 and in the 2nd instance 1792.
Panning fully left in the 1st instance and fully right in the 2ns instance.
When I play I note I can clearly hear the note on the left immediately and on the rigtht delayed.

Great news ! Thanks for the effort

i just tryed to work with two instances ( mac) but i failed.
guess i make a new thread since its another topic.
i might help others too

Did you create a new instance?

yup, a new instance was created

And you could open the new instance?

yup, see the other thread with screenshots :wink:
