I noticed that there is a delay between my headphones when soloing something and what is coming out of the mains in house. The headphones are before the mains in house, I would assume because the audio going to the mains has a further distance to run. So is there an option to add delay to the headphones audio so that I can line it up with what’s coming out of the mains in house?

I don’t understand why this should be related to the dlive

it’s the wrong place to ask this

In the pafl setting you can delay the headphone to the mains. This feature was already with the gld in the a&h console’s

Mayby it is een option to read the manual?

Here you can find it, maybe you find more features you request.
