The overall latency (not audio, but the responsiveness, in general) of my Nexus 7 2013 got <i>much</i> worse in Marshmallow. It now takes a second or two after clicking anything to get a response. I&#x27;m not sure what happened, but battery life also dropped immediately after the OTA update to 6.0. I don&#x27;t have a lot of confidence that audio latency has improved, given the overall increased sluggishness of the device. I have a few music apps (Caustic, several DJ things, a couple of classic style trackers), but haven&#x27;t tried them lately...partly because latency has always been such an issue that it wasn&#x27;t worth trying to do stuff on it.<p>Nonetheless, I avoid Apple products on principle, and also enjoy playing with audio stuff (so much so that I started an audiovisual company a few years ago, which I only recently extricated myself from, leaving it in the hands of one of the co-founders), so I&#x27;m pleased to see the issue getting attention. I&#x27;d love to be able to make real music on my tablet. I have a Gameboy that I use for &quot;on the train&quot; music tinkering, because it has an immediacy that is lost in most modern devices (not merely latency...just the general composition process on something so simple it&#x27;s impossible to get bogged down in bullshit like selecting the perfect snare sample or something). It&#x27;s be cool to be able use the Nexus 7 for that purpose.
