I have echo meter touch 2, it helps identify species from Europe, Americas or South Africa but if i wanted to identify bat calls for example from Asia i can’t, do u know any online tools or ways to identify bat calls from all around the globe?

Maybe check the Bat Call Library?

Take a look at their ‘resources’ section.

You might also try contacting Merlin Tuttle’s bat conservation organization and asking their advice:

Could you use it to help ID some of my bat recordings (in the US)?

Sorry I don’t know of any tools to identify bat calls globally.

I don’t think I can extract the sound also it is in a different format than from echo touch
