warehouse echo

I recorded audio from a scene for a movie in a warehouse using a boom mic (Rode NGT 2) and on a Zoom H5. The audio person I used was not very good and now my audio has a strong echo throughout the recording. I have attached a link from my Dropbox as a sample. I would like to fix this in Audition if someone can explain how.

The DeReverb seems to work but the gain option is not highlighted and so It will not allow me to use it. I just updated to cc2019 last night.

If it's the HUD on-screen gain control you're missing (that's what I used first) then you can enable it in View>Show HUD.

That's not an echo - that's actually reasonably clean reverberation (as far as I can tell on this laptop...) I boosted the gain and tried Audition's DeReverb on it with a pretty high setting, and it improves it a lot, although you'll never remove all of it, as it will have influenced the direct sound too.

Effects>Noise Reduction/Restoration>DeReverb is where you will find it.
