How to correct latency for Altiverb in Logic

[PlatinumCity]

If one was using Altiverb or SD or any latency inducing reverb plugin, how do you compensate for the time delay between the dry and wet track during mixdown as to experience a tight reverb. Does PDC do this, or do you have to manually realign the dry track? I'm not talking about aligning with other tracks, just the dry and wet. For example,

Logic 8: I have altiverb on an AUX. I send track 1 guitar track to the AUX (via aux send). The wet signal will be delayed on playback.. therefore, do I need to delay the wet track or will PDC do this automatically?

Thanks

I think this is a common VST issue. Most of the time people manually align the signals or add a duplicate VST to the dry signal (with it's settings turned down) to duplicate the delay too.

Sorry, don't get it.

You are saying: PDC can't delay the dry signal to match with the delayed reverb signal, correct? I assume b/c the dry signal feeds the reverb with the aux send

You are saying you need to take the dry signal and make it 100% wet by using the aux send
Then duplicte the dry signal on another track which will then be delayed to match the wet track by PDC. Then you controll the reverb ammount by the volume on the wet track...is this right?

Just about all impulses will have some pe-delay
