#X text 35 327 Amplitudes of audio signals can have any reasonable
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."

#X text 210 164 <-- this shows the linear gain;
#X text 116 204 <-- multiply the sine wave by the gain \, reducing
its amplitude. You can also use the "*~" object to multiply two signals.
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;
