Audio Enhancement
Audio evidence is commonly used in today’s court cases, but poor-quality recordings can limit its usefulness. We can use audio enhancement to reduce and even eliminate noise interference, producing a clearer, more conclusive result.
Make sure your evidence is heard
A huge volume of audio information is recorded every day – some overt, some covert; some purposefully, some accidentally. Its numerous uses include intelligence reports and settlement of disputes.
In many cases, vital evidence can be missed due to poor recording techniques or the accidental recording of environmental sounds. For example, a person’s speech may be unclear because of background noise.
Aequitas Expert Witness Services Ltd uses the very latest software to enhance the most important elements of your recordings, working with a wide range of audio formats. We can offer a free initial assessment of your material and advice on how best to proceed; and also assist with video analysis and CCTV.
