Echo dialog box

◊

Echo Amplification

determines how loud the echo

will be.

->

50%,

the default setting, is a good setting for most

echos. each echo is at half the volume of the
previous.

->

A Setting of 100, will echo the sound at full
strength.

->

Settings above 100 will make it sound like the echo
is coming toward you. If echoed long or loud
enough, the sound will be clipped.

◊

Echo Interval determines how much of the selected
segment will actually be echoed. Echos are usually
referred to in time intervals:

->

A 1/8 second echo is about equal to the resonance
in a bathroom.

->

A 1/4 second echo is like the echo in a large
hallway.

->

A 1/2 second echo is like the reverberation in a big
auditorium.

->

A 1 second echo is like yelling in a canyon.

Decide how you want your echo to sound, divide the
current playback by 8,4, 2, or 1 and then set

Echo

Interval

to that number.

A couple of things to keep in mind:

->

If you set the echo interval to a number larger than
the selected segment, nothing will happen.

->

On the longer echos, you’ll need to leave some
space for the sound to echo into.
