+Demonstrates how to apply an effect to sounds using the high level engine API.
+
+This example will load a file from the command line and apply an echo/delay effect to it. It will
+show you how to manage `ma_sound` objects and how to insert an effect into the graph.
+
+The `ma_engine` object is a node graph and is compatible with the `ma_node_graph` API. The
+`ma_sound` object is a node within the node and is compatible with the `ma_node` API. This means
+that applying an effect is as simple as inserting an effect node into the node graph and plugging
+in the sound's output into the effect's input. See the "node_graph" example for how to use the
+node graph API.
+
+This example is playing only a single sound at a time which means only a single `ma_sound` object
+it being used. If you want to play multiple sounds at the same time, even if they're for the same
+sound file, you need multiple `ma_sound` objects.
