What is Mellowmuse ATA, and how does it work?
ATA or Auto Time Adjuster is an RTAS plug-in for Pro Tools LE, designed to ease your workflow when using plug-ins that generate latency. Currently to compensate for plug-in latency you have to either move individual audio tracks backwards/forwards, or use the included Time Adjuster plug-in to adjust the delay of each track in turn. One plug-in change can mean a lot of tweaks every time you change a plug-in in a large project. Auto Time Adjuster uses audio pinging to automatically calculate and compensate for insert latency on your audio and aux tracks with the click of a button. When you add or remove a plug-in on a track all you need to do is click the ping button on the master ATA to calculate all current latency and synchronize your tracks, even when using hardware inserts. To understand the workflow and see the ATA in action view the overview video.
