SPL3

However, the SPL3 works like the SPL2 by using a measurement microphone: a microcontroller continuously measures the input level and adjusts the output level as soon as the maximum allowable value is exceeded.

Description

The microcontroller in the limiter continuously measures the input signal and attenuates the output as much as necessary to keep the maximum sound pressure below a preset value. Because the SPL limiters are not peak limiters, the dynamics of the music are not affected. As on the SPL2, both input sensitivity (threshold) and output attenuation (output level) can be set. All connectors and controls can be sealed after installation, so they cannot be adjusted afterwards.

The SPL3 has another function. It has a measuring microphone so that the sound pressure of a live band, for example, can also be measured. This makes the SPL3 ideally suited for live performances where the band brings its own equipment. If in live mode the sound pressure level exceeds the preset value, the limiter can give a warning to the band (a flashing light). If the sound pressure level remains too high the limiter will issue a penalty. It is possible to turn off the mains power through this sanction.
