[NOTE: this is a question for film and TV mixers - not related to music]

Hi, I see that some people mention plugins with big latency being a problem when using the faders.... I'm personally not able to play a music instrument with more than 128 samples of latency, but for riding the faders, I can't really tell..... I don't think I'd mind a whole frame (40ms), or even two, as I'm not that quick to react to sudden changes in level anyway, so I use trim mode and do several passes if I don't get it right the first time.....

So, at what latency does it get too much for your taste?
