Hit Connect Your Sessions & Devices above on any laptop at the mix position. One click creates your session and a QR code per zone — Balcony, Lobby, Stage, anywhere.
Helpers install 1dB Live, open Profile → 1dB Live, and scan the zone QR. A green LIVE banner on the phone confirms it's streaming. Then they just… set the phone down in the zone.
Every zone updates every second — level, LEQ, peak, trend. Set an SPL alert, reset all zones at the top of a song, make a phone beep to find it, even record reports remotely.
Phone mics are fine for trends — for calibrated absolute SPL, plug in the ~$40 iMM-6C calibrated measurement mic. 1dB Live imports its per-serial calibration file: exact sensitivity and a flattened frequency response, automatically applied whenever the mic is connected. The dashboard even shows each zone's calibration status, so you know which numbers to trust. Find it on Amazon →
