Warnings
QM-1000 manual
Warning, constant exposure to high ambient
sound pressure levels will cause hearing damage.
Exposure to extremely high noise levels over
long periods of time will cause permanent
hearing loss.
Many countries have Government occupational
safety authorities and the following noise table
is a commonly agreed standard of permissible
noise level exposures a worker can be subjected
to without suffering great hearing loss.

Any exposure in excess of the above permissible
limits could result in some hearing loss.
You will notice a rapid increase in hearing
damage above 103dB. Apart from the sound
pressure level of the sound system, you have
the added effect of people yelling into your
ear to he heard over the volume of the sound
system. Hearing damage can not be reversed so
limit the time you are in loud environments or
buy ear plugs.
Be protected by hearing protection such as ear
plugs. In the case of audio mixing personnel,
remove the plugs when you are mixing and
replace them if you are between music sets.
This will lower your exposure time to high SPL.
