Everyone should hear the person at the front.
A hall with a high roof and hard surfaces keeps every word hanging in the air. Tell Echo what you cannot touch, and see routes that respect it.
Check my hall →Watch the echo fade as the room is treated.
Drag the slider. The bare hall dissolves into a treated one while the trail of sound shortens. It is an illustration of the idea, with sample values, so you can see what a treatment is trying to do.
Loading the 3D hall.
The glowing trail is a picture of sound lingering after a voice stops. Treated surfaces let it fade sooner. Values are samples (2.4s bare, 0.9s treated) to show the idea, not a measurement of any real hall.
Dashed amber line: the bare room. Teal line: with the treatment shown. Level in decibels, relative.
Start with what you can't touch.
Tick what is off limits, such as the timber roof, the arched windows or a listed ceiling, and Echo only offers routes that respect it.
£34.99. One room. No subscription.
A branded report and a one-page supplier brief you can send on.
Your limits go on the brief.
The brief lists the limits you set, so a supplier knows why a route is missing before they quote.
From a tape measure to a brief for your committee.
Describe the hall
Length, width, roof height and the main surfaces. A tape measure and a few minutes are enough.
Say what is off limits
Listed features, the stage, windows you cannot cover, fixings the building will not allow.
See routes that fit
Echo shows treatment routes that respect your limits, with an indicative guide to how much each could help.
Send the brief on
A one-page supplier brief carries your room and your limits, ready for a committee meeting or a quote request.
Find the seats where it is hardest to hear.
In most halls there is a corner where speech gets lost: far from the stage, under the high roof, beside a hard wall. Treatment aims to make that corner easier to sit in.

What Echo does not do
Echo gives an indicative design guide from the room you describe. It does not measure your hall, it makes no promise about the result, and it does not replace advice from a qualified supplier or installer. The 3D hall above is an illustration with sample values, not a model of any real building.
