hm..on second hearing...I'm not sure about that.
The echo is simply not consistent, if it is echo...every shot should be echoed, no ?
edit:
perhaps the gunman changed weapons during the firing. Perhaps that could explain the differences in shot sounds ?

I am having a thought here.
Were the shots loud enough that the sound of them was picked up by microphones at the festival, and amplified, causing the delay and the difference in apparent distance, that some people experienced?
Firing from windows on two different sides of the building, would have echoed differently.

More like what Brit said, the microphones from the stage picked up the sound of the bullets casting it through the speakers.... the difference in sound of ammunition depends on which direction peoples phone cameras were pointing ?

I did not mean delay as in effects delay, that would make no sense at all.
I think of it like this... if your friend fires a shot way away over there some place, and you wait for the sound to hit your ear, it comes in at a certain speed. If your friend fires the same shot, but somewhere off to the left or right, you put a mic and a speaker, the sound which issues from the speaker is going to reach your ear AFTER the sound which issued direct from the gun, even without delay, as an artifact of being passed through the mic, down a wire, into the amplifier, and passing through the process of being blasted out of the speaker cone.

it's not about the difference in sound so much as in the sound pattern. If you shoot bam bam bam...then the echo has to be bam bam bam...if there is one.
When you look at the video...it appears that some shots do not have the supposed echo.

Ah very observant but I don't think the stage mic's would have much of a delay if any at all. No more than 1 second at most because of the 400 yard distance.

Again right..... and still no one is adressing the shots fired at 0.43 which have NO preceding shots to echo from in the first place.
You get a pretty good idea of how the echo react to the gunfire closest to the cab at 1.07, it's not even echoing by 1 second, it's like immediately after he begins to fire.
