Re: echo on audacity???
You can't hear real-time effects while recording, if that's what you're asking. All the Audacity effects will only work on a track that's already been recorded. In other words, you can only record "dry" tracks at first.
But once the track is in there, it's a simple matter of highlighting the signal and using the effects menu.
But here's where you might run into a problem. What people usually call an "Echo" in the audio world is actually a "Delay" effect (I don't like the Delay name either).
Most Echo effects won't allow you to set the number of reflections, just the echo Time and the Decay factor (this is exactly what Audacity provides for it's Echo effect).
But a Delay works a little differently and allows you to set the Time, Decay, and the number of reflections. It takes more time to compute, but neither Echo nor Delay are very complicated so you probably won't notice a difference.
The LADSPA effects pack includes a Delay effect, I can't remember if it's included by default with Audacity.
