Echo HUD
Echo HUD draws a ring around the crosshair that marks where nearby sounds come from, replacing the subtitles tucked in a corner of the screen.
What it does
Echo HUD shows directional sound indicators around the crosshair in real time, with visual pings that point toward the source of each sound relative to where the player is looking. Sounds are sorted into categories such as hostile, passive, players, blocks, weather and explosions, and each category can be toggled on or off and given its own color. The mod runs on the client alone, so a server does not need it. Fabric API and Mod Menu are required, and the mod is open source under the MIT License, with builds for 1.21.11 and 26.1.

What the author says
EchoHUD brings modern, FPS-style spatial audio visualization to Minecraft. Instead of relying on the vanilla subtitles buried in the corner of your screen, this mod adds a customizable ring around your crosshair that points exactly to where sounds are coming from.
