Voice comparison, or speaker recognition, is the process that compares a known voice sample to an unknown voice sample. This comparison determines if the speakers are the same or if they are different. A forensic voice comparison investigation requires critical listening, frequency/waveform analysis, exemplar sample and voice biometric testing. These ensure that the investigation has an accurate outcome.

Each person is different, these characteristics can create a set of data for each voice to be used in the comparison.
