The ultrasonic sounds of the bats are recorded unaltered and in best audio quality (real-time, full spectrum). The BATLOGGER M can be used for active acoustic monitoring and as bat detector. The integrated live monitoring (heterodyne, with automatic tuning) with speaker or headphones simplify work. A wide range of accessories is available for the BATLOGGER M.
Thanks to its integrated GPS, the BATLOGGER M is the ideal partner for mobile transects and with the Strongbox S the Batlogger M can be used as a static bat detector.
Due to this sophisticated tool the work of the bat observer is made much easier. The built-in live monitoring (mixer, resp. superheterodyne) tunes to the different call frequencies automatically. On detected bat activity the recording can be started automatically or manually and the most important information is displayed directly and clearly.
Different observation situations require different recording settings. Scheduled recording, permanent recording, instant recording and different triggers (for call identification) can be set up. Charts and statistics summarize the recorded data clearly and concisely and can be exported for further processing.
With BATPARS Editor Software it is easy and user-friendly to create and customize the BATLOGGER M settings with your computer (Windows and Mac). So it is a breeze to adjust all parameters according to your wishes, even without searching the manual for the correct values.
We believe the data belongs to the user. Therefore the recordings and metadata are stored in open formats such as WAV and XML. Thus you do not need special software to use the data and can, besides our software, also use other popular audio and bioacoustics programs.
Optional accessories include: microphone extension 2m (waterproof), ultrasonic microphone FG black (save £5 if you add it on this page), microphone tester pulse and Strongbox S.
