### Sync (touch pads on each source board)
JBL and Cardo have independent Bluetooth buffering, so one lags the other. Each
source board has an **adjustable delay** (0–200 ms) you trim live, by ear, with two
capacitive-touch pads — raise the delay on whichever speaker is *early* until they
line up. The value is saved to flash (survives power-cycles).
| Touch pad | Pin | Action |
|-----------|-------|--------------------------------|
| **+** | GPIO4 | tap = +5 ms, hold = ramp up |
| **−** | GPIO27 | tap = −5 ms, hold = ramp down |
Attach a short wire or a bit of foil to GPIO4 and GPIO27 on each source board and
touch the end. (There is intentionally **no Wi-Fi/phone UI**: Wi-Fi + Bluetooth +
the audio buffer don't fit in RAM on the classic ESP32 — it starves the Bluetooth
stack — so the control is local touch.)
