Even out a voice with Voice Leveler, and echo the last word with Echo Throw

Applies to 0.11Updated 6 Nov 20261 min read

Voice Leveler rides a voice to an even level and leaves pauses alone. Echo Throw puts an echo only on the last word of each phrase. A Pro feature.

On this page

Drop either effect on a sound clip and set it in Effect Controls.

Voice Leveler

Effects › Audio Effects › Dynamics › Voice Leveler

It rides the voice to an even level. Quiet words go up, loud ones go down, and pauses are left alone.

  • Target Level, Most It Raises and Most It Lowers
  • Reaction Time
  • Leave Alone Below
  • Peak Ceiling

The peak guard is a soft clip at the ceiling, not a look-ahead limiter. For broadcast, put Limiter after it.

Echo Throw

Effects › Audio Effects › Delay and Reverb › Echo Throw

An echo only on the last word of each phrase, never during continuous speech.

  • Echo Time, Repeats and Echo Level
  • Last Word Length
  • Phrase Ends After
  • Speech Above

The first echo lands one pause plus one echo time after the word, because the end of a phrase is only known once the pause has lasted.

Included in Pro and in the 3-day free trial. On Creator it carries the PRO badge.
