Patent ID: 7428188

Claim:
A method for generating a delayed cue signal ( 66 ) that is delayed relative to a cue signal ( 52 ) by a cue delay value ( 38 ) comprising: a. receiving a tachometer input ( 22 ); b. creating a write address ( 40 ); c. creating a read address ( 34 ) that differs from the write address ( 40 ) by the cue delay value ( 38 ); d. writing a cue signal ( 52 ) to a write address ( 40 ) into a memory element ( 51 ); e. verifying that the read address ( 34 ) of the memory element ( 51 ) has previously been written to; f. reading a memory output signal ( 54 ) from the read address ( 34 ) of the memory element ( 51 ); and g. creating a delayed cue signal ( 66 ) from the memory output signal ( 54 ).
