Rick, I thought you might know the answer to this. In DL 15 I saw a file called EchoEc.Arc. Its supposed to be a module for Soundscape. The "description" stated that the icon worked. Not much of a desrciption, huh? Do you know what it does? Thanks. Barry

Sure. EchoEc.Arc is one of two programs which originated in "Writing a SoundScape Module" by Todor Fay, creator of SoundScape, in V2N5 of Amazing Computing. ECHO takes a MIDI input even and echos that event back out after n milliseconds. I forget exactly how many repeats it does… three, I think. It is intended primarily as a demonstration, but it does work, and is useful in some applications as it stands. Rick P.S. If I recall correctly, "the Icon works" is because the first version had problems with fast memory; the uploader created a new file and re-upped it.
