Default Latency compensation when bypass (AAX and other)

Hi wdl people !

I think I've found a problem and the solution.

Steps to reproduce:
Using Protools (on Mac OS)
- open Protools and bounce without plugin inserted
- insert a plugin that makes a latency of 3072 samples
- bypass the plugin and bounce
=> the two bounces are shifted in time

Solution:
In the class NChanDelayLine, in the method ProcessBlock(), replace

signed long readAddress = mWriteAddress - mDTSamples;

by

signed long readAddress = mWriteAddress + 1;

The problem should be here for other formats that use a delay line when the plugin is bypassed.
It seems that if the plugin latency is 2048 samples for example, there is no such problem.

Hope this helps

Nicolas

I found an issue with this function as well. It did not pass a signal due to the array being written to before being read from. It was also more complicated and confusing than it needed to be. It's a simple rotating buffer - read then write then increment. The corrected code is below:
Code:
  void ProcessBlock(double** inputs, double** outputs, int nFrames)
  {
    double* buffer = mBuffer.Get();
    
    for (int s = 0 ; s < nFrames; ++s)
    {

      for (int chan = 0; chan < mNumInChans; chan++) 
      {
        if (chan < mNumOutChans)
        {
		  double input = inputs[chan][s];
		  int offset = chan * mDTSamples;
		  outputs[chan][s] = buffer[offset + mWriteAddress];
		  buffer[offset + mWriteAddress] = input;
		}
      }
      
      mWriteAddress++;
      mWriteAddress %= mDTSamples;
    }
  }

Where's the "like" button in this darn thing? Thanks, I just ran into that quite literally today when I changed a plugin's latency from 2048 to 2047 and couldn't figure out why bypass was suddenly screwed up.
