Audio Enhancement starts with the ear. Sound pressure waves are funneled by our outer ear to our ear canal, where they reverberate our tympanic membrane, aka. eardrum, the same as a stick on a drum.

This is likely to be the oldest remaining statement on voice identification. While
We are not sound engineers. We are forensic acoustic and speech scientists with an unrivaled track record.
Adept Forensics will continue to support the scientific community by generating best practices in digital media forensics as the technology and forensic disciplines evolve.
