"In contrast to analogue equipment, digital systems are always subject to latencies induced by buers in the signal chain. While they are of no importance when simply capturing all signals at once, they become crucial when doing overdubs, that is, recording additional tracks to already recorded material, e.g., to capture vocals while playing back the previously recorded instruments. Without proper buer compensation, the resulting vocal tracks would be misaligned, thus causing audible osets and nally breaking the rhythm."
