Certainly, and more than one way to do it at that.
I really suggest you have a look at the `CONTROL ENVELOPE SETUP' section
of the ecasound man page, but here's a quick example:
$ ecasound -i:stereofile.wav [bunch_of_effects] -eac:100,2 -kl2:1,100,0,180,10 -o:/dev/dsp
This would cause a ten seconds fadeout of the right chanel after three
minutes. But note that it's just a very dumb example, you can do much
much more...
Hope this helps,
