Definition of Reverse echo
Reverse echo and reverse reverb are sound effects created as the result of recording an echo or reverb effect of an audio recording played backwards. The original recording is then played forward, accompanied by the recording of the echoed or reverberated signal, which now precedes the original signal. The process produces a swelling effect preceding and during playback.
