Guys, been struggling for hours and hours, tried al your suggestions. Im running only the VST HALion with some simple piano, couldn’t get the delay to be gone. In the end it turned out to be my wireless headphones. As soon as i plugged in wired earpieces the problem was gone… Can anyone relate to this? Is there a way to get rid of this problem? Or is bluetooth just too slow? ---

This comment saved me days of headaches. I had a few plugins on my master channel in my template to save time from loading them each time. The strange thing is they weren’t even activated and it still created the latency. ---

Disabled. I had to fully delete them to get the latency to go back to normal which sucks, but it’s better than having a huge delay every time I hit the keyboard. I only had 6 plugins on there and I have a M2 Max with 96gb of ram lol and an Evo 16 audio interface lol ---

10 years later - thank you! Ozone elements in bypass mode causes a delay. ---

If you want to disable a plugin and not just bypass it you can hold Alt and click on the plugin. Your settings will still be kept. Easy to detect as the colour is different from the bypass status in the insert slot now. ---
