How It Helps
Hear the Room From the Seats
Walk the room during a run-through, or hand the device to someone in the back row, and compare what each spot reads.
See the Shape of a Piece
The 30-minute graph shows a rehearsal’s softest and loudest passages side by side. Drag across it to read any moment.
Readings You Can Compare
Fast and Slow follow IEC 61672-1, so a reading lines up with a real sound level meter set the same way.
Silent During a Concert
Target Range alerts are a border color only, with nothing audible, so the meter can run through a performance.
Settings to Start With
A starting point. Adjust from there for your room.
- ResponseSlow
Steadier through sustained singing.
- Graph30 min
Long enough to see a whole rehearsal block.
- Target RangeOff at first
Watch where your rehearsals land before you pick limits.
How Loud Is Too Loud
NIOSH recommends keeping noise exposure at or below 85 dBA averaged over 8 hours, and every 3 dB louder halves the recommended time: 88 dBA for 4 hours, 91 dBA for 2. It’s a recommendation, not a law.
The app shows the level in the room right now. It doesn’t track anyone’s exposure over a day.
