Does Vegas have auto compensation for plug-in caused latencies?

Good question and I don't have the answer.

Let's bump this one back up the list and see if Sony might have an answer.

I believe that the way that look-ahead is implemented is part of the latency compensation process... but I'm not sure how it functions.

Here's a quote from Peter on the topic a while back;

So...does use of plug-ins put Audio and video out of sync or not?

Yes, apparently it does, but probably not by more than a few samples. This will never be noticable. Besides, it will always make the audio late and we humans deal with that every day. We are used to seeing something happen before we hear it since light travels MUCH faster that sound through air. The generally accepted "standard" threshold of perception is that the audio should be no more than 1 frame early and no more than two frames late with respect to the video.
