Designed for professionals who need the highest quality recordings, the Wildlife Acoustics Echo Meter Touch 2 Pro features a state-of-the-art ultrasonic microphone capable of sample rates of 256kHz and 384kHz, creating best-in-class, 16-bit full-spectrum recordings.
The Echo Meter Touch app features pro-only options including adjustable gain and advanced trigger settings – and of course, the latest Kaleidoscope Pro auto-ID classifiers for bats species in North America, Europe, the Neotropics and South Africa.
Connect the PRO Ultrasonic Module to your device, and the app will activate advanced software features designed for professional biologists. Choose a sample rate of 256kHz or 384kHz. Control recording amplitude by selecting one of three gain settings. Set specific trigger length, trigger window, trigger sensitivity and auto-trigger time. You can also choose audio division ratio for RTE, heterodyne, and time-expansion listening modes. You can even enable/disable Nightly Sessions Mode and Real-Time ID.
The Echo Meter Touch 2 uses an USB-C plug. To connect the Echo Meter Touch to a phone with a USB micro input, a USB-C to Micro USB adapter is required.
The Echo Meter Touch 2 does not work with a Lightning-socket!

Android device compatibility
These devices are currently compatible with Echo Meter Touch 2 and Echo Meter Touch 2 Pro when running Android versions 8 or higher. Devices on this list (especially older ones) may not work with future versions of the Echo Meter Touch or may become incompatible with the current Echo Meter Touch 2 due to changes in the Android operating system. If a device is not listed, that means that we do not yet have enough information to know if it works correctly with the Echo Meter Touch 2 or not (including many that are running Android 8 or later). Newer devices (i.e. released within the last two years or so) are much more likely to work than older ones.
