Sound levels for event venues
Keep an eye on event volume. From your phone.
For wedding venues and event centers that host outside DJs and bands. Live Sound Levels measures the room during every event and keeps the numbers, so you can manage the sound while you manage the event.
In development. The waitlist is free and commits you to nothing.
How loud is it? Is it over our limit? How loud did it get?
Simple questions for whoever is running the event. Staff have a hundred other things to do, and nobody can stand beside a meter all night.
Live Sound Levels puts the number on your phone and keeps it afterward.
How loud is it right now?
Check from the kitchen, the front door or the bridal suite. Your phone shows what the room’s microphone is reading, so you don’t have to walk back to the dance floor to find out.
If your venue has set a limit, Live shows where you stand against it. Alerts that reach your phone are planned.
One reading can’t tell you how loud it was.
A level reading shows you the moment. Live Sound Levels also adds it up for you, over the last minute, the last 15 minutes and the whole event, so nobody has to watch a meter or do the math.
- Right now
- How loud is it this second?
- Last minute
- How loud is this song?
- Last 15 minutes
- How loud has this set been?
- This event
- How loud was the whole night?
Working with outside DJs and bands
One number you can both look at.
“Too loud” is hard to talk about when all anyone has is how it feels. A shared reading gives your staff and the DJ the same place to start.
It measures the room, not the DJ’s work. They keep every fader, and you decide what your venue’s rules are.
How did Saturday compare?
Every event is saved as numbers, beside the ones before it. One look shows whether last night ran louder than usual, and by how much.
That makes it easier to hold every event to the same expectations, whoever is playing.
The difference is what matters, not the raw number. 1 dB is hard to hear. 3 dB is small but clear. 5 dB is a change most people in the room would notice.

Compared with this sample venue’s six-month average of 90 dBA.
What it won’t do.
Prove you met a noise rule.
It isn’t a certified meter, and its record isn’t compliance evidence.
Tell you what the neighbors hear.
The microphone measures one spot inside the room. It won’t prevent complaints.
Turn the music down.
It shows the level. Your staff and the DJ decide what to do about it.
Record your events.
The pilot keeps levels only. No audio, no conversations, no music.
What it takes.
- A measurement microphonePlaced in the room.
- A computer running the meterIt sends readings up during the event.
- A phone or browserFor anyone your venue invites.
Built to run on its own. Once the microphone is placed and calibrated, there is nothing for your staff to start, watch or close on event night.
What it costs.
- The subscription
- $59 a month
- Live levels and every event saved, for anyone your venue invites.
- The equipment
- $499 one time
- Paid once, when you start.
That’s $558 to start, then $59 a month.
Fair questions.
What kind of venue is this for?
Indoor wedding venues and event centers that host outside DJs and bands, and already have some kind of sound rule. If your main concern is sound outdoors or at a property line, this isn’t built for that yet.
Our staff already carry a meter. Why would we need this?
A handheld meter helps the person holding it, in that moment. This one reaches whoever you invite and remembers every event. If your meter already does all that, keep it.
Will it tell us when we go over a limit?
Live shows where you stand against any limit your venue sets. It’s off by default. Alerts that reach people on their phones are planned.
Can we use it to answer a noise complaint or a citation?
It can show what the room’s microphone read and when. It isn’t a certified meter, it doesn’t measure outside your building and it isn’t legal evidence.
Who can see the readings?
Only the people your venue invites. Readings describe the room over time. They don’t evaluate the DJ or your staff.
What equipment should we plan for?
The equipment is a one-time $499. You’ll get the supported hardware, placement and calibration requirements before you decide. There’s no need to buy anything to join the waitlist.
When can we start, and what will it cost?
It’s $59 a month, plus a one-time $499 for the equipment. Pilot dates aren’t set yet. You’ll have them before you decide anything.
