Need help with Echo effect

[Attan]

Hey! What is the easies way of creating an echo effect to some specific sounds when the player is in certain areas?

[Joshtek]

Sound editing software such as Audacity.

So there is no extension that can make "echo" with an event or something like that? Is the only way to make one normal version for each sound, and one echo-version, and then place invisible actives and play the echo version if the player is overlaping them. I thaught that there might be an easier way.

That is the easiest way. A lot of modern games do this, or they use EAX, which iirc you need to purchase a license to use.

The only other possibility is playing the sound again after a certain delay (at lower volume), but this produces bad results compared to a proper echo, and I'm not sure if you can do it in MMF.
