A method and an apparatus for minimizing latency in digital signal processing paths. One example is an active noise cancellation device. The system includes a digital closed feedback loop having a forward path and a feedback path. The forward path includes a compensation filter, a digital-to-analog converter, and an output transducer. The feedback path includes an input transducer, a feedback delta-sigma modulator, and a feedback sampling-rate converter. An input signal is processed in one of several ways into a processed digital input signal having a preselected intermediate sampling rate. Through the feedback path, an analog output signal is processed into a digital feedback signal having substantially the same preselected intermediate sampling rate. The processed digital input signal and the digital feedback signal are combined and processed through the forward path to produce an anti disturbance signal that is combined with a disturbance signal to form the analog output signal.
