Live
sound mixing – watch those bass frequencies for the
neighbors 
Getting a bass sound you can feel through your whole body
and successfully blending it into the whole mix is a real payday
when mixing live bands. We have noticed a trend in many countries
around the world. The authorities are sitting up and paying
attention to the effect the bass frequencies have on neighborhood
noise. So, you need a sound level meter that not only keeps you
within limits, but allows you to regulate the bass frequencies
too.
The XL2 Sound Level Meter does just the job. To constantly
monitor at the loudest audience position while the sound level meter
is situated at the Front of House, the XL2 allows a correction value
to be recorded for LAeq and, with the XL2 and firmware V3.33 or
higher, now also for LCeq.
This new feature, recently added to the XL2 functions, provides
you with the ability to monitor the C-weighted equivalent level,
LCeq, in the loudest position in the room as an offset to the Front
of House measurement position. C-weighted values emphasis the low
frequencies more than A-weighted values.

Speaker
and Microphone Measurements: Eliminate reflections while testing
Acoustic reflections in rooms, in the form of
reverberation, contribute significantly to the characteristic of
sound. In acoustic measurements for quality testing of loudspeakers
and microphones, however, these reflections can produce inaccurate
results and should therefore be excluded as far as possible. The
measurement results must be reproducible and not significantly
influenced by the room acoustics. Good news: there is a viable
alternative to building a large anechoic chamber; testing can be
done in a reverberant room, and the reverberation can be
electronically removed from the measurement results. The process
involves time-windowing the impulse response.
In some circumstances, reverberation is required. The proverbial
„good acoustics“ of concert halls are created through the deliberate
use of acoustic elements, which guide the sound waves emitted by the
musical instruments to the listener's ear through reflection on
different propagation paths. In communication, such as in
classrooms, attempts are made to reduce but not completely eliminate
the amount of reflections, to improve the intelligibility of
speech.

Allegedly, recently this very old voice recording of a famous
person was found saying,
“I feel a great burden of
responsibility.”
Who can we eliminate from this list as having not recorded
this?
• Sherlock Holmes
• William Shakespeare
