That's it exactly. It's not that I CAN'T deal with the LE latency ie nudging, bussing, ATAing etc...It's just that every other piece of software offers it, so I don't see how it can be all that difficult of a feature to include.
The other issue is I didn't even realize this for several years while I was using PT. I had no clue other DAWs offered this. It also never occurred to me that a few samples of a delay was a big deal because I was 'untrained' and unaware of phase issues. I certainly knew liquid mix was a big delay but that was obvious. I wonder how many of my early mixes could have been significantly enhanced by just a few nudges!
I also can't imagine I'm an exception. Any 'newbie' to recording, starting out in PT, would probably be in the same boat as I was.
I do miss the smart tool though!
