Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
pressure PaMain input. Positive values. 0.02
reference PaOption. Positive values. 0.00002

Calculation method

spl_dB = 20*log10(pressure_Pa/reference_Pa) (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply sound pressure level from rms pressure to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Ideal mathematical audio model with supplied values. Real speakers, rooms, hearing exposure and converter performance are not measured.

Choose the right tool

Choose timing tools for tempo and samples, tuning tools for frequency ratios, and level tools for amplitude or power. Coherent signal addition differs from independent-source addition; acoustic room estimates assume simplified conditions.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Ideal mathematical audio model with supplied values. Real speakers, rooms, hearing exposure and converter performance are not measured.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
