Results of simulations in which 100 randomly generated noise maskers and multitone maskers were passed through filters of the type specified by Moore and Glasberg (1983). The mean effective masker level is plotted for each masker type across a range of equivalent rectangular bandwidths. Error bars indicate ±1 standard deviation across the 100 randomly generated maskers. At the limit, the functions would reach their broadband levels of 60 (noise) and 70 (multitone) dB SPL.
