Question: One of the biggest drawbacks of digital audio processors is latency, which can delay a signal just enough to keep a ham from pouncing at the right moment during a pileup. It's especially pronounced when the processing is being done on a general purpose CPU (in this case, an ARM), which has the compute power to do the work but needs to introduce buffering to compensate for nondeterministic execution times. What's the latency on the WolfWave?
