Anything digital is always behind real time. Due to the way it is
sampled.

You won't find much delay in the telephone network due to sampling.

You get delays when its being encoded and/or compressed like on mobile
phones or VoIP.

The telephone system uses a straight 8KHz sample rate with no additional
delays due to correction or compression.

Even digital microphones, compared to analogue ones. Which makes it
impossible to use a mix of the two. Hence there are very few around -
the
exception being some radio mics.

And any processing after that initial sampling may slow things down
further.

The thing that will slow it down is bitstream D/A convertors if someone
uses them because they are cheaper than the alternative ladder
convertors. But only by a few milliseconds.
you cannot afford to let the ADC take milliseconds. because there is a new
sample coming in - you would have to sample and hold multiple samples if
you had slower ADCs

Once more you display real ignorance of the subject you say you had a
profession in...

There we have the classic "I don't know the difference between D/A
convertors and AtoD convertors" that is typical of TNP.
Tells me I am wrong by talking about something unrelated.
Now wait for the other people that can't read to join in.
