Delay Compensation and AudioPlayHead::CurrentPositionInfo.ppqPosition

Audio Plugins
1

Hi all,

I try to find a way to calculate the applied delay compensation on the channel where my plug-in is instantiated. According to this thread

getCurrentPosition in AAX_wrapper reports ppqPosition without delay compensation

GetCurrentTickPosition() and GetCustomTickPosition() in the AAX Wrapper should give me a delay compensated and a non-delay compensated position of the actual playhead. I edited the juce_AAX_Wrapper and AudioPlayhead::CurrentPositionInfo to store both values but when I compare them while playing back, they are identical although there is a delay compensation applied on my audio track.
Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? Or has anybody a better idea how to retrieve the applied delay comp before the audio is hitting my plugin?

Thanks
Stefan

Yeah, good old Profools.

Would love to see this solved one day in a brighter future…
