I haven't used QuteCsounds output to disk option but I use fout all
the time in my instruments. It's very simple to use.

Hola Nicolás,

This sounds like a bug... Can you try using 0dbfs = 0 to see if it
works properly?

One thing I've noticed is that currently QuteCsound will wrap clipped
values, making clipping a lot worse than it originally was... Is this
what you are seeing?

Cheers,
Andrés

Hola,

Sorry,I meant 0dbfs = 1... You would also need to adjust all the
amplitudes in your orc... I'll try this when I get the chance.

Cheers,
Andrés
