Level control in events
- Environmental impact study - Measurement of levels to comply with environmental impact study - Installation of limiters to control sound systems - Analysis and reporting of the evolution of the event - Analysis and reporting of the evolution of the event
In recent times, due to the number of concerts and shows taking place in open spaces, both organisers and authorities have become increasingly aware of the impact of noise pollution on nearby areas, especially homes, hospitals, schools….
The most effective tool is prevention and the most important tool is a prior environmental impact study, which will indicate the most appropriate location, installation and levels to avoid nuisance to these areas and sanctions by the authorities.
The steps to be taken to achieve these objectives are as follows
- Project definition: describe the project in detail, including its location, size and technical characteristics.
- Identification of impacts: Assess the potential environmental, social and economic impacts of the project.
- Analysis of alternatives: consider different alternatives for the project and assess which has the least environmental impact.
- Mitigation measures: propose measures to minimise the negative impacts identified.
- Public consultation: involve the community and stakeholders to gather their views and concerns.
- Final report: compiling all the information into a detailed report for review by the relevant parties.
This process ensures that all potential impacts are considered before the project is implemented, promoting more sustainable development.
Electroacoustic study.
By means of a study carried out with the EASE software, the sound sources are modelled with the directivity and coverage set in the audience area.
The sound sources are modelled with the directivity and coverage adjusted in the audience area to obtain the most accurate assessment of the levels to be applied.
This study allows us to adjust the levels and coverage in order to obtain the lowest noise emission in nearby dwellings.
Environmental Studies
Using the proven CadnaA software, the environmental impact study is carried out in nearby residential areas in order to comply with the applicable noise regulations.
Monitoring and measurement:
Measurements are taken in the auditorium and on nearby facades during the event and while the sound systems are being adjusted.
We use our own measurement systems to make continuous recordings to monitor the situation and take any necessary corrective action.
Source limitation
The installation of approved limiters to control the sound systems to the permitted levels, with the registration of these as a certificate of compliance.
Analysis and report.
Analysis of measurement data and recordings to evaluate the overall development of the event.
Preparation of a report for appeal in the event of sanctions.
