Echo

Menu Command: Effect | Echo

Adds echoes to the selection. The number of echoes, delay, volume, and feedback can be set in this window.

Echoes
Sets the number of echoes to create. Each echo gets quieter, depending on the Volume setting below.

Delay
Specifies the time between each echo. The longer the delay, the longer it takes for the echo to bounce back.

Volume
The lower the volume, the quieter the echo will be. Values less than -6dB give good results.

Feedback
Specifies the volume of the regeneration of the echo. This gives the echo more depth or fullness.

Stereo
Makes the echo bounce between the left and right channels in a stereo sound.

Generate tail
To make the echo sound more natural at the end, some silence is added to the end of the selection so that the trailing, fading echoes can be stored. This increases the length of the sound. Turn this setting off if you do not want to change the length of the selection or have any silence inserted. If the option is off, echoes will end abruptly rather than trailing off gradually.
