hi to understand you right, are you talking about realtime audio processing or Real Audio-playback of a RealPlayer? to test latency of Pd you probably will want to know also the latency of the soundcard, which is "before and behind" pd. you can use a stereo signal (of a dat-player or minidisc...) from outside the computer and split one channel directly to the datŽs inlet and send the other through your computer. the time difference of the two signals gives you the latency. "synchronisation" would be another problem ... sme.

I've been trying to think of a way to determine real audio latency using a pd patch. This is for my brother's and my project to control 5 computers from 1 workstation using pd. I'm kind of at a loss as to how one might do this, or if its even possible. If any of you have any suggestions as to how this might be done, I'd really appriciate it.
thanks again,
Josh
