as been processed, and any audio sent to the Senerella 'return' must wait until the next block of samples to be processed. Since Paris uses block sizes of 2000 samples, this explains the latency values that we are seeing. Note that the sample delays in cases 1,2, and 3 above relate nicely to the early latency readings that I got, but with a twist.
1) for the send on submix 2, and return on submix 1, the latency was 1986 samples. For the opposite (send on submix 1, and return on submix 2) the latency was 14. Conveniently, 1986+14 = 2000.
2)for the send on submix 3 and return on submix 1, the latency was 1988 samples. For the opposite way around the latency was 12. Conveniently, 1988+12 = 2000.
3) For the send on submix 3 and return on submix 2, the latency was 2002 samples. For the opposite, the latency was 2. Conveniently, 2002-2 = 2000.
It's a little puzzling as to why case 3 needs the latency subtracted to equal 2000...but I can think of a couple of theories as to why this happens.
At any rate, to distill this down, what it means to the Senderella user is "Have your returns on higher numbered submixes than your sends".
My whole rationale for investigating this

via SPDIF into a presonus Central Station to monitor in Wavelab.
In Paris, I monitor via 24bit output into Central Station.
Conclusion: Using the same plugins with the same settings, there was a very noticeable enhancement in the image and depth of the all Paris mix compared to the Wavelab mix.
Rob_A Yeah, lots of angst over there...
I really wonder though, if the most important conversion is the AD off the top.
All three files began as a performance captured through the Lynx. Therefore, clocking in particular is uniformly stellar.
Applying the old "whatever is upstream counts the most" reasoning, I really think that if these had been tracked through each of the same three cards at source, there would be much more significant difference.
As it is, all three get to work with a very good source. The DA is only half (maybe even less than half) of the equation IMO.

Hey Rob -
Yeah I think I find the same thing. I'm new to PC, so I've been trying out Wavelab. FWIW, it doesn't seem as open as Peak on the Mac, but that's very subjective. It certainly doesn't have the same depth as Paris in my current set up, but my monitoring chain for the PC needs to be improved a lot.
2 Qs:
on # 7 above, does this mean that you're truncating the 24 bit to 16 bit? Not a big deal, but I'm curious.
As far as the comparison goes, wouldn't monitoring via MEC S/PDIF out to the Central Station be more of an apples to apples comparison?
You can always take both r
