[Table 6] Playback level balances
[Fig. 49] Frequency characteristics of the filters of the sound level meter : A, C, F
[Fig. 50] is a table showing the levels of each 1/3-octave band for pink noise whose all-pass level is 85
dBC. If the all-pass level is 85 dBC, the 1/3-octave levels will be approximately 71 dB. In other words,
when C-weighted filtering is applied to the thirty-one bands (71 dB) and the bands are summed, the all-
pass level will be 85 dBC. Incidentally, all-pass level with F-weighted filtering will be 86 dB (71 dB + 10
log (31 band) = 86dB (F), 86dB (F) - 1dB (energy loss of a C-weighted filter) = 85 dBC). The sound
pressure level displayed by the sound level meter is this “all-pass level (85 dBC),” and an RTA (Real-
Time Analyzer) is required in order to determine the “band level (approximately 71 dB, 1/3 octave)” of
each frequency.
