One recording
A representative WAV file showing the real encoding and channel count.
Recorder and sensor data
Bring acoustic and environmental data into one project.
Analyze works from standard recording and export formats rather than locking a project to one equipment manufacturer. The exact import route depends on the WAV encoding, channel layout, calibration metadata and CTD export structure.

Important compatibility note
A product name is not a certification.
Smart hydrophones, acoustic recorders and CTD devices below are included because their exported data can support Analyze workflows. Compatibility must be confirmed from an actual export, its metadata and units. A listing does not imply endorsement, partnership or testing of every firmware and configuration.
Smart hydrophones
Bring exported recordings into Analyze.
Compatibility scope: the listings below describe an Analyze data route, not manufacturer certification. Firmware, export settings, WAV encoding, calibration metadata and channel layout can affect compatibility. A representative export should be checked before project deployment.
| Manufacturer | Product families | Typical Analyze data route | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ocean Sonics | icListen HF, icListen AF and related icListen smart-hydrophone configurations | Exported WAV recordings with the applicable calibration, timing and deployment metadata | File compatibility—confirm with a representative export |
Using another smart hydrophone? Send a representative WAV and calibration record so the import route can be confirmed.
Acoustic recorders
Work with recordings from multiple manufacturers.
Compatibility scope: these are file-based workflows rather than direct hardware integrations. Recorder settings, WAV encoding, channel layout, clock data and calibration records must be preserved and checked from a representative export.
| Manufacturer | Product families | Typical Analyze data route | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ocean Instruments | SoundTrap ST400 and ST600 series acoustic recorders | Exported WAV recordings with recorder configuration, timing and hydrophone calibration metadata | File compatibility—confirm with a representative export |
| Loggerhead Instruments | Snap, LS1/LS2, LS1X-Al/LS2X-Al and ML4 acoustic recorders | WAV recordings with the applicable hydrophone sensitivity, gain, schedule and timing metadata | File compatibility—confirm with a representative export |
| JASCO Applied Sciences | AMAR G4 autonomous acoustic recorder | WAV and associated CSV data with channel definitions, timing and hydrophone calibration metadata | File compatibility—confirm with a representative export |
| Turbulent Research | PORPOISE family, PORPOISE Pod and TR-ORCA acoustic recorders | Exported acoustic recordings with channel configuration, gain, timing and hydrophone calibration metadata | File compatibility—confirm with a representative export |
Using a different recorder? Send a representative WAV and its metadata so the file structure and calibration route can be checked.
CTD and water-column equipment
Environmental profiles for acoustic context.
| Manufacturer | Product families | Typical Analyze data route |
|---|---|---|
| AML Oceanographic | AML-1; AML-3 LGR, RTS and XC; AML-6; X2change conductivity-temperature and pressure sensors | Exported CTD profile containing depth or pressure, temperature and salinity or conductivity |
| Sea-Bird Scientific | SBE 911plus, SBE 19plus V2 SeaCAT, SBE 25plus Sealogger, SBE 16plus V2 SeaCAT, SBE 37 MicroCAT, SBE 49 FastCAT and SBE 52-MP | Processed or exported profile table with identifiable physical units |
| RBR | RBRduo³, RBRconcerto³ C.T.D/C.T.D+/C.T.D++ and RBRmaestro³ multiparameter loggers | Ruskin-exported profile data or a normalised CSV table |
| Teledyne Valeport | SWiFT CTD, SWiFT Deep CTD, SWiFT CTDplus, MIDAS CTD, MIDAS CTD+, rapidPro CTD and miniCTD | Valeport Ocean or DataLog export normalised to a CTD profile table |
| SonTek / YSI | CastAway-CTD handheld profiler | CSV profile with position, conductivity, temperature, pressure/depth and calculated values |
| JFE Advantech | RINKO-Profiler, ASTD-3XTU deep-sea CTD and AAQ-RINKO water-quality profiler | Exported profile table with CTD and optional dissolved oxygen or turbidity data |
| Star-Oddi | DST CTD salinity logger | Exported time-series or profile data converted to a supported table |
What to send
A small sample is enough to confirm the route.
Channel description
Which channels represent pressure, voltage, X/Y/Z direction or other sensors.
Calibration
Sensitivity curve, scalar sensitivity, recorder gain and units where applicable.
CTD export
A representative profile with column names, units and device export settings.
GPS sample
A track or fixed position with time zone and clock information.
Desired output
The SPL, DIFAR, mapping or propagation result the project must produce.
