If you're tight for memory (cast size or otherwise)
and you don't want to carry around a bunch of blank
sounds you can also the following simple tricks:
1. One 500ms castmember that you can either
(a) queue multiple times or
(b) define a #loopCount for the duration you need.
(c) Use #startTime & #endTime to get smaller time slices. Then use
(a or b).
2. One long silent sound that you slice using #startTime & #endTime
Personally, I like the first approach because you really
only need one 500ms member that you can add or slice to
come up with the duration you require.

add a sound with empty space in it between each item in the queue
-- WARNING UNTESTED
repeat with f = 1 to 32
sound(4).queue([#member: member( f, "sounds")])
sound(4).queue([#member: member( "1_sec_space", "sounds")])
end repeat
sound(4).play()
if you have a sound member with 1 second of blank space in it, this should
put that between each item in the queue you are constructing.

have different size space sound members that you use based on the users'
choice.
i.e "1_sec_space", "500_msec_space", "2_sec_space", etc.
