The strobe also controls the start of play of the next segment. Start of play can be selected
immediately after the current segment has been completed or on the falling edge of the
strobe signal. This is a notional Trigger Hold-Off control and provides a means of strobing
in the next segment index and then waiting for the length (pulse-width) of the strobe
signal before beginning to play the next segment.
