Smaart Online Lab: SPL Applications (Level 1)

Smaart Online Lab: SPL Applications.
This is a Level 1 session, hosted by Rational Acoustics and taught by Michael Lawrence.

CLASS DESCRIPTION

This session is a deeper dive into Smaart’s SPL toolset, and will examine the use of multiple SPL metrics concurrently to gain more context about a signal’s characteristics, along with techniques to allow a mix engineer to mix with impact and dynamic range, even in the face of SPL restrictions.

SPL measurement is becoming an increasingly important part of the live audio measurement toolset, both for purposes of information and consistency, and for compliance with sound exposure and noise pollution legislation. But the “dB Police” don’t have to be a mix engineer’s nemesis, and SPL measurement can be more than just an enforcement tool.

Prior to joining the lab attendees are recommended to review:
Smaart SPL Quick Start Guide pp. 7 - 19 – What Is SPL?
Smaart Operator Fundamentals Online (SOFO) Session 6: All About SPL
