Diagnose an echo heard by live viewers
Diagnose an echo heard by live viewers: a practical process, a clearly illustrated example and checks to use before the next live session.
A practical process
- Check whether the same audio source reaches the mix through two routes.
- Mute one suspected route at a time while repeating a short spoken sample.
- Test whether speakers are feeding broadcast sound back into an open microphone.
Worked example
An assistant voice captured directly and again through room speakers can create a delayed duplicate. Temporarily removing one path reveals whether it is the cause. Do not change several filters at once, because that makes the actual source of the echo harder to identify.
