Device Offsets

Every mobile device has its own audio latency, which is the time delay between the audio and video outputs of the device. This is not a bug, but a consequence of audio processing. Hence, different devices require different audio offsets to synchronise the audio with the video (calibration).
Due to differences in human reaction times, the audio offset may vary slightly between different people using the same device as well.
Arcaea has a fixed time delay between video and note detection, and there is no setting to change it. Hence, adjusting the audio-video offset has the same effect as adjusting the audio-detection offset.
==Offset Listings==
This section lists standard note offsets for different devices. They can be used as an initial setting, then fine-tuned to suit your personal play style. The default offset for all devices is 0 (20 prior to 1.8.1).
If you'd like to add your own but aren't sure how, feel free to add a comment listing your device, OS version, and offset (also if possible, whether the setting is for headphones or speakers).
