VOCAL SIMILARITIES BETWEEN YOWIE AND SASQUATCH?
Posted: Wed Nov 22, 2017 5:20 pm
The anomalous vocal recording I captured at Jolley's Lookout (in the Queensland ranges) this year has bugged me since I recorded it.
I've heard screams, growls and grunts but nothing that resembled anything like structured speech.
Locating a legitimate recording of Yowie "speech" for comparative purposes has been like wandering through a minefield of fakes and low quality maybe's.
By chance I was re-watching a Survivorman: Bigfoot episode and remembered American researcher Scott Nelson's
alleged recording of a reputed argument between two Sasquatch.
So I sampled the cleanest audio snippet and converted it into a usable wave file, then did the same to
my recording. After clipping 1.5 seconds of ambient bush noise, (situated between the initial and assumed"female sound" and the far deeper vocal response) I was pretty amazed at the visual similarity between the two waveforms.
The two files sound NOTHING alike, but the waveform structure looks close enough ( to me) to warrant reaching out and asking the audio boys for their experienced opinion.
As I have just about zero experience in this area (thanks for the initial assistance of converting the video file Rusty, cheers mate) I did a bunch of hours learning basic use of AUDIOSONIC and this is what has come of it.

Here are a couple of simple observations I made between the two files...
