I am new to digital recording and I could not find an answer to the following question:

Target: Recording multiple tracks with direct monitoring.

Settings:

I enable the "direct monitoring" switch on my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2.

I turn of track listening for the new recorded track to avoid flanging/chorus/delay effekts due internal latency.

My Question:

In this situation there are 3 different timing latencies:

1) ~0ms from the direct monitoring (heard while recording)

2) Output latency + instrument latency of the already recorded tracks during playback.(heard while recording)

3) Input processing latency of the new recorded guitar track (muted while recording)

My Question:

Does Studio One do the necessary timing offests to sync the new recorded track to the existing tracks without any lags?
