But if it's something like a compressor used in parallel with ITB channels, you'll get phase issues that can only be resolved by printing the fx back into the DAW and then nudging the new track into sync. Not worth it, in my opinion.

I have heard this yet in my Pro Tools system using an Avid OMNI interface. When I have Automatic Delay Compensation on and the M7 as an insert there is in fact a specific delay reading in that track without me entering anything in the HW Insert Delay window ??? Which would seem to indicate that it is auto compensating .
Goes for both my M7 which is a digital reverb unit using AES I/O
And my 3U analog compressor via analog I/O
