latency things (was: RE: Sooperlooper or Mobius? Going back to software.)

"Then if you want to be REALLY accurate, you should measure the
distance between your ears and your monitor speakers, calculate the
speed-o-sound delay and add that to your output latency compensation
:-)"

I wrote that article here (http://moinlabs.de/e_lat.htm) about the
concepts of (audio) latency in computer systems, and also addressed
the issue of latency from your speakers to your ears. Basically, with
a speed of sound in the 300 m/s region, a typical nearfield situation
gives you 2.5ms of latency, whereas a more "rehearsal/practice room"
like one (I assumed 3m of distance) gives you 10ms.

So no reason to put a smiley there. You're spot-on with that remark!
