It's a big deal when recording. Low latency drivers for lower-end
audio interfaces are a constant source of problems, and it's
common to run out of time in the prescribed latency (defined by
buffer size and the sample rate) to do the audio processing you
want, leading to having to render things offline or use less cpu
intensive plugins.
Digital mixers of the sort that are ubiqitous at modern gigs have
had a lot of work put in to them to achieve as much as possible
at as low a latency as possible.
