Product description

Analysis of the bat calls may be required in some situations e.g. in order to positively identify a certain species. The software BatSound is an efficient, high-performance tool for various types of sound analysis. It is suitable for sound analysis in general, but also includes a number of features particularly useful to analyze bat calls recorded from a bat detector or recorded directly with a D500X or D1000X ultrasound detector.

General features

BatSound uses any Windows compatible sound card for sound input and output.
BatSound supports sound formats up to 32 bits with one or two channels (mono/stereo) and sampling frequencies up to 192 kHz (possibly limited by the sound card). The common WAV format is used to store files. It is also possible to open sound files with other formats such as mp3 and wma if the corresponding codecs have been installed on the computer.
Multiple windows with different sound files can be opened at the same time, facilitating comparison of signals and analysis results.
Printing and picture file export through Windows clipboard (BMP and WMF formats).
Wide range zoom function.
Optional time and frequency compensation of time expanded signals to show the original time and frequency.
Play Speed function to implement time expansion playback of high-speed sound files from D500X/D1000X detectors.
Open Next/Previous command makes it easy to scan through all files in a folder. Very useful for browsing files obtained through unattended recording.
Automatic parameter extraction feature, calculates max/min frequency, pulse duration etc.
Optional grid lines in most diagrams.
Clipboard export of analysis results.
In the Virtual Bat Detector mode, sound files of time expanded or high speed recorded sounds are replayed at the original speed, emulating a heterodyne bat detector. Perfect for learning how to identify bats using a heterodyne detector, for classroom demonstrations etc.
The Automatic Recording mode makes it possible to have the computer record sounds automatically. The desired threshold level is selected and the computer will start recording to a sound file as soon as the signal exceeds this level. Many parameters are available to fine-tune this mode, e.g. by setting limits for the minimum pulse length, total recording time, maximum number of pulses to record etc.
Frequency-selective triggering is also available, to avoid recording undesired signals.

System requirements

Intel or AMD 1 GHz or faster processor
RAM: 1 GB minimum (also depends on the operating system)
Windows compatible sound card
>1 GB of free hard disk space
Windows 7/SP2, Windows 8 or Windows 10 operating system

BatSound Highlights

An easy-to-use and powerful tool for analysis of bioacoustic sounds. The low price makes it the perfect choice for anyone interested in advanced sound analysis.
Real-time spectrogram analysis mode with high-quality spectrogram and/or oscillogram running across the screen with simultaneous recording of the signal on the hard disk!
Spectrogram, Power spectrum, Zero-crossing, Pulse interval and Pulse length analyses from recorded sounds.
Supports any Windows compatible sound card.
Digital filtering for improving sound quality of recorded sounds.
Printing or clipboard export of diagrams.
Export of spectrograms and oscillograms as graphics files (bmp, jpg, tif etc.)
Various cursor types for marking and coordinate measurements, text annotation etc.
Time expansion factor to give the true time and frequency scaling in signals from time expansion bat detectors.
Multiple windows can be displayed at the same time to compare different signals or analysis results.
Optional grid lines in oscillograms and spectrograms.
Playback of sound files with time position cursor.
Automatic recording mode – turns the computer into a "voice activated recorder".
Virtual Bat Detector mode to replay time expanded sound files from the hard disk, as heard through a heterodyne bat detector.
User defined spectrogram color mappings. Design virtually any color mapping you wish!
The "Pulse Characteristics Analysis" command enables automatic extraction of many important signal parameters, such as:

Pulse duration
Pulse start time
Pulse end time
Maximum frequency
Minimum frequency
Frequency at maximum amplitude

Reads various file types such as wav, mp3 and wma (requires codec for the desired type).
Play Speed function to implement time expansion playback of D1000X sound files.
Display of embedded data in D500X and D1000X sound files
"File management" function for extraction of embedded file information in D500X/D1000X files, renaming files (to include date/time and selectable prefix/suffix in file name), etc.
Open next/Open previous file command to quickly scan through a folder.
