% Part 2 - Subliminal Message

% In the original file, the phrase 'Number Nine' seems to be repeated.

[beatles, fs] = wavread('Beatles.wav'); sublim = flipud(beatles); sound(15 * sublim, fs) wavwrite(sublim, fs, 32, 'beatles_message')

% However, the reversed file seems to say 'Turn me on Desmond'.
