Natalie,

Yes, I was just reading your previous email. We seem to be getting just
enough time lag that some messages are even arriving here out of order.

Unfortunately, I don't know of any software that will do what you want.
The good news is that WAV is a fairly simple format that simply records
the amplitude of each sample. If you can extract the data into an
appropriate format, it shouldn't be too hard to do an FFT to get the
frequency domain information you want. I wouldn't be surprised if
Matlab includes an FFT function. I see that you are at Stanford, so I
suspect there is someone near you who can help with the details.

Then again, there may be some software out there that I don't know
about. Unless someone else here knows about it, you should consider
Google your friend.
