PCM WAV Delay and Echo Generator
Add a bounded train of delayed echoes to a local PCM WAV, with separate dry, first-echo and feedback gains.

How to use PCM WAV Delay and Echo Generator
Create a finite delay effect from the original signal. The first echo uses the wet gain; later echoes multiply that gain by successive powers of feedback. An explicit tail is retained for the requested echo count.
- Select a supported WAV and choose delay plus echo count.
- Choose dry gain, first-echo gain and feedback; negative feedback alternates later echo polarity.
- Run and inspect the actual echo gains and global scale before downloading.
Good to know
- Local ordinary little-endian RIFF/WAVE, signed 16-bit mono or stereo PCM only; compressed, float and extensible WAV are rejected.
- Each input is at most 10 MiB, 120 seconds and 2,880,000 frames. Output is bounded by the same frame/duration limits and 20 MiB; high sample rates reduce available duration.
- Processing uses a local Worker with a 2-second compute deadline. No upload, autoplay, microphone or saved history. Unrelated metadata is omitted from exports.
- This finite feed-forward echo is not an infinite feedback loop, room simulation or reverb model.
- At most 12 echoes and 30 million sample visits across the two output passes; long or high-rate files may need fewer echoes. The tail is included even when a chosen gain is zero.
Common questions
How are successive echo levels calculated?
Echo 1 uses wet. Echo 2 uses wet × feedback. Echo 3 uses wet × feedback², continuing for the chosen count.
Does feedback change the original sound?
The original uses only dry gain. Echo gains and optional global overload scaling are reported separately.
