    How do I present a letter, an SOA, then a tone and collect RT for both?

    I've added some detail to my question
    Here is how I'd like each trial in my dual task dual RT experiment to go

    Black background, white letters
    Fixation +
    Spacebar press
    400 ms delay
    presentation of randomized H O or S at centre of screen make speeded
    response to idenity of letter using j, k, l respectively record RT letter is
    erased after key press SOA from onset of letter of 50, 111, 245, 542, or
    1200 ms Presentation of randomized low or high pitched tone for 250 ms Make
    speeded response to pitch of the tone using letter a or s respectively
    Record RT Must respond to the letter before responding to the tone.

    Note that the SOA is from the onset of the letter, not the response to the letter and thus there must be two events, the SOA and the tone presentation, before the letter response and there must be one event following the presentation of the tone but before the tone response (the letter response). This experiment is demonstrating that tone responses will be delayed by SOA.
