A Revolutionary Approach to Workplace Noise Sampling
Over the years, various types of Sound Level and Octave Band Meters have been used by
Industrial Hygienists and Safety Professionals for monitoring workplace noise, most
requiring significant operator training and producing varying degrees of effectiveness. At
Larson Davis, we believe this is because until now, Sound Level Meters were designed
primarily for use by Acoustical Engineers, not for Safety and Health professionals.
The SoundTrack LxT
®
Sound Level Meter was developed to meet the unique needs of
those involved in workplace noise exposure assessment and plant noise surveys. It is
fully compliant with IEC and ANSI standards for Class 1 or Class 2 sound level meters. In
addition, LXT files are fully compatible with the ISO 9612:2009 measurement strategies
for task or job-based measurements.
With its sleek ergonomic design to its exceptional exposure data presentations, the
SoundTrack LxT®is the perfect tool for gathering, analyzing, and presenting detailed noise
environment data quickly, easily and concisely. New and better ways to organize your
sampling methodology and annotate noise survey data save incredible amounts of time and
provide better results – all at a price that won't consume your entire instrumentation budget.

SoundTrack LxT
Easy to Use, Yet Powerful!
With its superior ergonomics and rugged compact design, SoundTrack LxT®allows you to
capture the data you need while keeping one hand free – invaluable for juggling multiple tasks
in hard-to reach locations. Once a test starts, LxT automatically performs all the necessary
calculations of workplace exposure - to multiple compliance standards. With the ability to
‘hide’ display screens that are not relevant to your sampling strategy, the LxT is configurable
for maximum utility and ease-of use. Add in the “Store when Stable (Leq)” feature and selective
keypad lockout, and you can comfortably hand off the SoundTrack LxT
technicians with assurance of a positive outcome. No more skipped locations, questionable
results and missing data points.
Digital Voice Annotation
Now you can record your own observations about the environment, the worker and tasks
performed, or even whether proper hearing protection is worn – all at the push of a button,
using the Digital Voice Note Recording option and included headset microphone. At the end of
the day, recorded notes can be played back right from your PC – they are digitally stored with
related noise data and exposure calculations for future reference.

Available Real-Time Octave Band Frequency Analysis
With optional 1/1 or 1/3 Real-Time Octave Band Frequency Analysis, the SoundTrack LxT
quickly captures frequency band data, because all Octave (or 1/3 Octave) measurements are
performed simultaneously. No more tedious “stepping through” each Octave Band, as in the
past – all data are captured from virtually the same point in time; which is vital for maximum
accuracy in a varying noise environment. What's more, you'll save significant amounts of time
performing Octave Band measurements, which are an important part of determining
effectiveness of Engineering Controls or selecting proper hearing protection devices (HPD's).
