Latency showed up in project

Hey all,
Weird problem started occuring with a new project I made. My input monitoring is giving me a ton of delay.. I don't know why it showed up since all other projects there is no latency and this project was fine until yesterday.. I needed to go back and redo a few guitar parts and there was some serious latency when trying to record some new parts. I am using Guitar Rig 4 to lay down guitar tracks, and before I even enable the vst, the input monitoring has major delay.

Like I said.. yesterday it was fine..today, a mess.  All other projects are fine. 
PC specs:

Intel I7 930 dual quad
8gb ram
M-audio profire 2626
running 48khz 24bit
ASIO reported latency 1.3

Any ideas?

*EDIT*  - Resolved this.  Ozone4 was the culprit. Disabling it made the latency go away so I can record successfully.

    I nearly pulled my hair out yesterday with the same problem.  I was running Guitar Rig 4 on several tracks.  I inserted Cakewalk's Linear Phase equalizer in two tracks.  I know I could have used ProChannel but I wanted to hear how the Linear Phase equalizer sounded.
     
    My next guitar track started off with what sounded like 500mS of delay.  Wondering if the problem was Guitar Rig I tried to delete an instance of it.  X1 crashed.  Restarted X1 and this time deleted Linear Phase.
     
    Problem solved.  Went back to ProChannel for EQ.  Good sounding results with no weirdness.
     
    Guitar Rig 4 just doesn't play well with others sometimes.

    Couple of guitars, a bass, bunch of plugins, not enough time....

    Both Guitar Rig and LP-64 use extra audio buffers that require plug-in delay compensation. In the case of GR, I think it depends on the patch - some need PDC, and some don't - I haven't used it enough to know which components need it, or how much. And, of course, some GR patches have delay in them, so if you went 100% wet, you could have what seems like latency.

    LP-64 is intended to be mastering plug-in and should not be used during tracking.

    Yes - LP-64 should not be used for tracking.
    You could try Freezing the tracks that you are using Guitar Rig on.

    The LPs and Ozone do indeed use a look ahead and thus add latency to the project. Most limiters do, too. The TS-64 Transient Shaper does as well. These plugins are all great but are best used during the mixing and/ or mastering stage, not while tracking.

    Disabling Ozone 4 resolved this issue. I usually do not record guitars with mastering tools enabled so I can make sure I'm getting a good sound going in.
