    Sorry, but there isn’t an effective way to remove ambiant room echo … I have had some minor success but at the expense of the audio … It comes down to echo or very bad audio without it, (oh there is always going to be a hint of it even if you can remove some) I think the best option here is to reshoot if possible, if not possible I think you may have to live with it ………….

    Import your video in Sony Vegas. in the audio layer add a “Smooth/Enhance” plugin set it at -3 to -5 and that will reduce dramatically the echo but isn’t perfect. maybe you need to duplicate the original audio layer and reduce it about -15 dB. to recover some ambience sound.

    If you recording with a real stereo mic. (2 heads, not just stereo output) you can try reduce echo. by duplucating de audio and inverting the waves of each channel, and then inverting the channels itself.

    That gonna delete any sound doesn’t comming from the space between the 2 head of your stereo mic. but if the echo is comming from behind of your setereo mic position that doen’t gonna work properlly.
