+range \, but when you output a signal via the dac~ object \, the samples
+should range between -1 and +1. Values out of that range will be "clipped."

+The "0" argument here instructs it that we'll just send it messages
+to set the multiplier.;
+#X text 35 396 Here we calculate a gain for the multiplier (*~) using
+a "dbtorms" object (acronym for "dB to RMS"). 100 dB is normalized
+to one \, and zero dB artificially outputs a true 0;
