Audio Effects
Nuendo comes with a number of included effect plug-ins that you can use to process audio, group, instrument, and ReWire channels.
Insert Effects and Send Effects
You can apply effects to audio channels by using insert effects or send effects.
Plug-In Delay Compensation
Some audio effects, especially dynamics processors that feature a look-ahead functionality, may take a brief time to process the audio fed into them. As a result, the output audio is slightly delayed. To compensate for this, Nuendo provides plug-in delay compensation.

Plug-In Delay Compensation

Some audio effects, especially dynamics processors that feature a look-ahead functionality, may take a brief time to process the audio fed into them. As a result, the output audio is slightly delayed. To compensate for this, Nuendo provides plug-in delay compensation.

Plug-in delay compensation is featured throughout the entire audio path maintaining the sync and timing of all audio channels.

VST 3 dynamics plug-ins with look-ahead functionality feature a Live button that allows you to disengage the look-ahead. This minimizes latency during real-time recording. For details, see the separate document Plug-in Reference.

To avoid latency during real-time recording or real-time playback of VST instruments, you can also use Constrain Delay Compensation.
