UK - Smart Sound Direct has announced the availability of Galaxy Audio's new trio of Check Mate meters, ideal for monitoring SPLs and to ensure that, wherever possible, they're not exceeded. The CM-130 has a dynamic range of 30dB and frequency range of 125Hz-8KHz, while those of the CM-140 and CM-150 are 50dB and 31.5Hz-8KHz respectively. All are fitted with an electret condenser microphone and are battery operated.

The top-of-the-line CM-150 also comes with an AC adaptor and RS-232 interface. The latter feature allows current SPL readings to be monitored, plus logging of SPL events over a period of time, with the information stored on a computer for future reference. The meters are ideal for councils, sound engineers, bands, DJs, club owners, theatres, schools and houses of worship, say the company.
