11. The Normalized Output File should have the following characteristics:
a. Silence is removed from the beginning and end of the recording. This allows for
the audio to start up quickly after the PLAY button is pressed on the MP3 player
used with the LRAD.
b. The level of the recording is increased (normalized), so it will sound louder than
the original recording when played back if the original recording was not loud
enough.
c. The recording is equalized to remove low frequency content that cannot be
reproduced by the LRAD.
12. The “About” tab of the application shows the current software version.
