What is Audio Delay?

Audio Delay Feet to Ms is a conversion method used in sound engineering to calculate the time it takes for sound to travel a certain distance. This is important in settings such as live concerts or theater productions where speakers are placed at different distances from the audience. The speed of sound is approximately 1 foot per millisecond, so this conversion helps sound engineers to synchronize the audio output from different speakers, ensuring that all members of the audience hear the sound at the same time, regardless of their position.
