Latency with the Pitch Shifter Effect?

FMOD Studio
1

So I think I notice quite the latency on with the Pitch Shifter Effect activated. The problem is, that when I apply this to one music layer the latency causes it to fall out of sync with the other layers. Is there any way to compensate for this?

Hi,

The latency is correlated to the FFT Size- setting a lower FFT Size should eliminate the latency.

Alternatively, you can compensate with a Delay Effect (FMOD Engine | 10. Effects Reference | 10.1.5 Delay) to other music layers and tweak the delay value to keep them in sync. For example, I found that by setting the delay value to 2.20 ms can usually ease the latency caused by Pitch Shifter with FFT size set to around 1.02k.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
