Struggling to use Sonitus Delay plugin! Is there an easier way?!!

I'm trying apply a little bit of delay to the last syllable of a word but just can't get my head round the instructions that come up when I click on the help button.
 
Can anyone explain it in more simple terms please?

    create a bus
    add the delay
    add a send to the track to the bus
    create an input gain envelope on the bus
    pull the whole envelope to zero
    adjust the envelope to correct amount above zero for the bits you want to delay
    envelope back to zero right after

    jm24's first suggestion is how I do it when using the Sonitus delay. It's the easiest method for that particular plugin.
     
     


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

    Another way:
     
    Clone the track.
    Cut out the portion you don't want delayed
    Nudge the remainder along the timeline where you want to hear it delayed
    Repeat the last step for multiple delays
     
    No plugins involved

    Not mentioned yet. IMO the fastest way:
    Cut the syllable you want effected so it is a clip of its own. Insert delay as Clip FX.

    SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

    That's what I do. The one caution is the delay (or reverb, or any time-based effect with a "tail") will stop when the clip stops. I extend the length of the clip to create silence that's as long as I want the delay to last.

    The first 3 books in "The Musician's Guide to Home Recording" series are available from Hal Leonard and http://www.reverb.com. Listen to my music on http://www.YouTube.com/thecraiganderton, and visit http://www.craiganderton.com. Thanks!

    Variation on JM24's first suggestion
     Add a send envelope to the track and send just the bit to delay
    And then if you need to do it again the bus is ready and waiting and willing

    If you're feeling adventurous you could put a compressor on the delay bus (after the delay plugin) and side chain it to the vocal track. Set the threshold and ratio so that the delayed vocal is squashed while the vocalist is singing, but comes back up when the singing stops. This way, you'll only hear the delays in between vocal phrases, not during. You have to play with the attack and release to make it sound smooth. Very quick and easy to set up and saves you having to draw envelopes.
