Protecting your hearing - harjoittelu

You should always protect your hearing. Musicians must pay attention to both their working environment and the training environment. In small spaces, noise exposure becomes excessive surprisingly fast. You should protect your ears from noise in your free time, too. Before you grab a hammer, drill or a lawnmower, make sure you are wearing ear plugs or muffs.

In long run safe daily exposure in an average sound pressure level of 85 dB is 8 hours. However, if the average level of noise reaches 100 dB, the safe daily limit is reached within 15 minutes.
