Using Plugins in the Recording Process

There is almost never a need to use plugins in the recording process.

Many plugins introduce latency, and latency causes audio delays in monitoring.

Also, it’s much better to use plugins in post-production when you have more time and attention to adjust each plugins settings optimally.

Note: This also applies to apps like Sonarworks and others that flatten the frequency response of your monitors because you don’t need to hear perfectly flat playback when you’re recording.
