Echo
Echo
How do i create an echo with the standard effects Ableton has? I know a delay is similar but it's not the same and i can't find any effect like a proper echo here.

say for example if i want to have an echo on the end of a spoken sample for instance, i dulicate the clip the sample is in and then use a volume envelope to silence the sample until just after the first letter of the last word is spoken.
then i just put delay on that clip and mess around with the settings until it sounds right.
then i just play both clips together...

thats an echo, if in doubt

You want to achieve something both specifically artistic and technical, and you have thought of a way to achieve it.
Well done - that thinking outside the box.
Have you tried it - if you are wrong and it doesn't work - you've lost nothing.
unlinking the clip envelope and using a volume envelope you should be able to make a clip loop and on each loop more and more of the first part of the sample will be cut off.
probably easiest to just do it by hand with volume envelopes.

this is funny.
you know - a 'real echo' might be more properly termed 'reverb'. It's just a case of what the space is like if it gives you distinct echoes or a big traditional sounding smear.
the reason the initial 'syllable' is truncated is because the first part is getting scattered across the many similar surfaces the first 'delay' comes back in a cloud. soft vowels don't reveal this as much as hard consonants.
a real reverberant space that would give you an 'echo', like a cave, could be crudely modeled by racking delays and reverbs set to blur the transients.
