how to add echo to my voice while recording
I know its better to add effects like echo after my voice is recorded, but I learned that I sing better with echo; it allows me to hear the depth of my voice.

Does anyone know how I can sing with echo while recording?

ciao :D
I'm a little inexperienced at this method, but I belive you could.....

Out of your board from mic input (we'll call it 1), auxillary bus your vocals to an echo or reverb processor, return your effected vocals to a different channel (we'll say 2), but don't have it assigned to any tracks. Only monitor Channel 2, which will have the effect, and record from channel 1 which will be a clean vocal.

I believe it is as simple as that, but if anyone can correct me, I'd appreciate as well, the whole concept is pretty new to me.

You can also use EAX effects if you have an Audigy or SB Live.

Several ways to do this but I would need to know what gear are working with.
I am at a learning stage--I dont' own anything other than a fairly new computer and a useless mic.

The kind of system I am thinking of though is for demo making;
software sequencer and mixer
mic and a soundcard for audio interface and preamp and MIDI interface. And maybe a nearfield monitor. That's about it. Thanks.
