Re: Do you interpret "required SPL" on riders as A or C weighting?


It's a bullshit, arbitrary number so A or C don't stinkin' matter.


There, I feel better now.


Really, it's a way of saying "bring Enough Rig for the Gig® and we'll be cool".  Cover the audience areas with enough SPL to get over the band's stage level and you'll be fine.  How much that needs to be is a matter of the guys on stage and what levels they're accustomed to.


Feel free to X out the rider stuff you don't agree to.  The band will play the show anyway just to sell their merch.
