The programs I used were not the free one discussed here, (you would expect a paid version to be better than my experience) however, after several other things came to light from my investigation, I unloaded the software from my system and will never use it again. The training was webinar style which from other companies is usually excellent. In addition, I will not even spend the time to put it through validation like I did for Biosonic and Sound Assistant. I try not to reward what in my opinion is bad behavior by investing time or resources. There are far too many great pieces of software from folks who operate their business in a manner that attracts practitioners.
Be well and I wish you every success with your work. For a free (and quite accurate) program for recording up to 192,000 samples per second, try PRAAT from Amsterdam. It is a free download and works extremely well. http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/praat/
For a paid program that has the ability to deliver frequency with a .wav file, Biosonic does a great job.

Is it that bad? I just played with it a little bit. Sounds like a bad experience, though. So you went through the training there? How bad was it?

My opinion is thus;
If I recall correctly, it had a Trojan virus in it that was not a false positive. You might want to use malwarebytes, Black Ice or another utility to check your system. I have purchased and used software from this group in the past and it was VERY disappointing. The database was incomplete. When I called in to the company, I was told they had no plans to finish the software by one of their employees. The training I received was nothing more or less than an absolute embarrassment. At one point, I asked for some examples of waveforms that should have been included, and the owner of the company who was doing the training was so unprepared, she could not even find the file. She seemed alot more concerned with advertising her other more expensive programs, than anything else.When I began to smell a rat, I spoke with several of their software users and found NONE with anything positive to say. More investigation showed law suits and claims that they owned publicly available information. To my way of thinking, THAT is rather dishonest. I hope no one was hurt by being given the wrong frequencies from databases. That could (through discovery) generate quite a class action suit. A deposition or three from past employees would probably reveal quite a bit.
