With Ableton and the default ASIO configuration on my Scarlett I get 96 ms combined input+output latency without any processing in between, so that's probably what made my ears bleed before. Tweaking the sample rate and buffer size gets me indeed single digit latencies in Ableton. So I'm definitely going to adjust the section about latency, thanks for this!
I'm a bit on the fence about what this means for the difficult latency calibration routine in the application. Ideally I could throw the calibration routine away, but then I require that users have ASIO installed, while the app now also works with non-ASIO drivers. And indeed Python itself might become a bottleneck (making this work in Python has been half the fun).
