The latency for USB3 is ~30 μS.

I don't think it's a USB protocol problem but rather a driver/manufacturer problem.

If I recall correctly MIDI itself had a typical latency several milliseconds on classic-era dedicated hardware.

Usually the software using the interface (pro tools / ableton) has settings to tweak audio latency via buffer size for audio. I have not had issue with this or midi, and I record a fair amount. Motu makes a good cheap audio usb-c interface.
