Please implement a switch that allows users to revert to versions prior to 3.4.1 in terms of latency. We electronic drummers do not want any additional latency when using the plug-in, even if it is only a little more than a third of a millisecond! (which is the case with v.3.4.1 and which is also completely unnecessary for our purposes!)

Especially those whose latency chain has already reached the acceptable maximum of 10 ms (because of not using the fastests modules and audio interfaces) will not be happy about a further extension of the latency chain.

And there are so many benefits from using the plug-in in a DAW, so please don’t answer “use the standalone”.

So why not let choose users if they want to sacrifice some latency for more security? Just like some audio interfaces provide in their driver settings.

One question though: If I’d run my SD 3.4 with 32 samples buffer and after the update switch to 16 samples. Should latency and performance be about the same as before? Or is the new extra buffer handled somehow different?

Check the reports of your audio stream out latency of your audio interface at 32 and at 16 samples at the native SD3 sample rate 44100 Hz (btw, it’s good to have an audio interface that reports reliably like RME devices) and then add 0.363 ms in case of the 16 samples setting.
