  • Page 24 "Audacity" is a recommended program for editing wave files: you can download it for free at http://www.audacityteam.org/. Note: Before wave files are transmitted to the EK 533 plus 2.0, they are filtered based on whether they are for release, flashing release or orientation. This is to protect the speakers. Filtering sometimes slightly reduces the tone quality of the sound emitted by the device compared with playing it on the PC.
