Hi,

Ideally the SPL meter's mic should be pointing vertical up towards the ceiling and should be firmly mounted, not handheld.

I use short boom mic stand to support my SPL meter a camera tripod can also work.

Also if possible try increasing the sensitivity of the G68 mic input (it can be done on an 861, not sure about G68).

Regards,
Carl
