Abstract: A system for adjusting a delay setting based on user input is configured to control playback of an audio segment (51) and control a light source to render a light effect (67). The audio segment comprises a spoken description (54) of the light effect. The audio segment is played back at a playback moment (83). The light effect is rendered at a rendering moment.
