LD G4 Utility

Let G4 Upgrade Your
Sound Measurement Experience

All Sound Level Meter rentals from The Modal Shop include free use of Larson Davis’ G4 LD Utility Software. If you haven’t had a chance to try it, you can find the free download at Larson Davis’ website.

We’ve put together a quick intro to using G4 with our newest meters, SoundExpert® and Spartan™ Sound Level Meters. Many of the concepts in the video apply to all Larson Davis Sound Level Meters, so you’ll want to check it out.

End of year sale

Holiday Treasures from The Modal Shop

It’s time for our annual Ode to Used Rental Stock, but this year we asked AI to write for us. We think it did a pretty good job – what do you think? See our special end-of-year Sale Used Pricelist and the rest of this “creation” at our website.

In the quiet hum of December's cheer,
A treasure trove waits, year after year.
Amid the carols and jingling chimes,
The Shop holds gifts of another kind.

Not baubles, nor tinsel, nor sparkling lights,
But tools that measure mechanical might.
Old microphones, their stories untold,
And vibration sensors, both subtle and bold.

Outdoor Noise Monitoring

Long Term Outdoor Noise Monitoring

Did you know that our Rental Team has a wide array of customizable, weatherproof outdoor noise monitoring kits available for immediate rental? Built around the SoundAdvisor™ Sound Level Meter, NMS044 and NMS-831C kits are ideal for short- to long-term noise monitoring. Whether you need sound recording, remote connectivity, octave bands, alert and alarm notifications, solar power, or some combination of those features, our experienced team can help you select exactly the right fit for your project.

The NMS044 kit rental includes a solar panel, but if you need long-term unattended monitoring without remote access, select KNMS048-SLA or an NMS-831C kit and add the EPS044-UPG solar power upgrade.

Noise and Vibration Safety in the News

The effects of excessive noise and vibration from hand tools and other industrial equipment can be debilitating, but these issues don’t seem to get as much attention as we think they deserve. We liked this recent article from AIHA’s The Synergist that makes the case for considering factors like noise and vibration when making buying decisions.
