Echo and Reverb - Sound - Science, Class 8 Video Lecture

does anyone know what reverb and echo
are no tell us mister audio when you
stand on the rim of a canyon and yell
hello and you hear your word a second or
so later that's an example of echo
essentially it's the sound that's
reflected back to the listener there can
be multiple reflections as sound bounces
off walls floors ceilings and other hard
objects when these reflections arrive
very close together the listener no
longer hears a distinct echo this then
is reverb short for reverberation it's
what people hear when they sing in the
shower at one time studios had rooms
called echo chambers a misnomer since
they actually were creating reverb they
had a speaker that played back the sound
and a mic to pick up the reflections
from the room later Springs and also
metal plate reverb were used in studios
tape recorders were typically used to
create actual echo the studio term for
this was slapback today both reverb and
echo can be created digitally when used
properly they can add a live quality to
the recording and help in getting a
better performance thanks miss for more
