Why is there a delay when I put Ping-Pong delay on in Ableto

Ok I'm not talking about the delay that the ping-pong puts on. Hopefully I'm not that dumb...I'm talking about when I turn the device from off to on via automation, there is roughly a second gap before the audio reaches a similar level to when it was off. Anyone had this problem before?

title made me lol.
Running any plugins causes some amount of latency. Some tutorial on youtube talked about this. This is important in parallel compression. When doubling up a channel and whacking a compressor on, you want to the same on the unaffected channel but turn the compressor off.
You may want to automate the wet/dry instead of the on/off.

try using a different time mode by right clicking the device titlr and selecting another one
