Abstract
Abstract An electronic echo apparatus comprising an input amplifier, an output amplifier connected thereto through a transmission channel, a delay device connected in parallel to said channel, and a feedback path connected in parallel to said delay device, characterized in that said feedback path includes a control means, and in that there is connected to the output of the output amplifier a means for measuring the output signal of said output amplifier, comparing said output signal to a predetermined threshold value and, when said output signal reaches said threshold value, supplying a control signal to said control means for terminating the feedback.
