Can anyone tell me who has/is using either Stage Research SFX or Sound Cue, that when using multiple out, can you delay one channel. I dont mean a timed delay. In regards to playing a sound of say someone clicking their fingers, and two pairs of speakings, one immediate FOH and say one thats a bit further up, to get that sound syncd. Or are we having to relay on individual delay hardware for each channel?

With SFX just create two cues with a wait (however long you need to delay) between them. Assign each one to a different group or patch and your good to go.

Thanks, kinda what i figured I may need to do, just wondered if anyone had found an easier way. Next step I guess is actually get an external delay unit.

At the moment, its a mini disk to mixer to amp to speakers.
Unfortunatly its been done this way for many years prior to me. I would like to use computer. However the FOH speakers are hard wired/fixed to the roof of this village hall, somewhere above the front row.
Going to add some at the rear of the stage and try and fill the sound out a bit. If need be i will ignore the FOH because of their position and just go with whats hiding on stage.
Either going to use SoundCue or SFX on a laptop with a firewire box, probably a m-audio 4 output. May even splurge and get prosonus firepod so i can record my band as well in 'other' spare time!
