We all love a high energy show
but a lot of the time we think volume = energy in a show
Everybody’s experience of what loud sounds like is different, and it’s not always safe.
In this video we’ll cover why that is
We’ll talk about why we should be measuring our shows
The facts around volume level and hearing damage
As well as how to measure it and when we can trust that data.
By the end you should have a better idea of what a healthy volume level is for a concert
And how you can stay under that level but still mix a show with high energy
As a little bonus I’ll show you how I’ve been doing it wrong in the past.
