Full-Spectrum Recording Files

Acoustic recordings and full-spectrum ultrasonic recordings are saved as .wav files. This is an uncompressed audio format that is widely supported across many kinds of audio playback and analysis software.

Full-spectrum files record audio of all frequencies up to half the sample rate. Most commonplace audio files, like music or voice recordings, are full-spectrum files. If you open a full-spectrum file in Kaleidoscope Pro or another spectrogram viewer, you can see all components of the audio file across the recorded frequency spectrum.
