Media: jpbackwards_ECE301Fall2008mboutin.wav

This file is at the original sampling frequency.

Media: jpbackwards70sampling_ECE301Fall2008mboutin.wav

This is at 70% the original sampling frequency. The message is a bit more clear.

Message

The message is a bit difficult to make out, but I believe he is saying I took my life.

wavwrite(backward,fs*.7,'jpbackwards70psampling.wav'); 
%Play the backwards file at 70% original sampling frequency.
