The MedWand is engineered to capture and deliver accurate stethoscope sounds. To make the most of it:

• Use high‑quality headphones (over‑ear or low‑frequency‑response earbuds) for clearer playback.

• Ensure a snug fit so external noise is minimized.

• Recordings themselves are always unaltered, but some device “enhancements” may change how you hear them.

Audio Enhancements: What You Need to Know

Many operating systems include features—Dolby Atmos, sound enhancers, equalizers, UHQ upscalers—that boost volume or tweak frequency response. These do not change the underlying MedWand recording, but they can introduce distortion, mask subtle murmurs, or alter timbre in ways that make clinical interpretation harder. If you notice unexpected artifacts or muffled tones, disabling or adjusting these settings is recommended.
