Subjectintuitive volume control?
i see at least three methods of referring to volume in csound.

first amplitude: measured in what?

sound intensity measured in decibels: a bit more intuitive for my purposes,
but different frequencies at the same decibel level do not sound equally
loud. (i've been listening and reading)

f1	0	8192	10	1

is that 1 underneath volume, 100% of a sone, the measured level of
subjective loudness?

hmm. any chance i can use sones to express volume within the envelopes in
my orc?

please explain as simply as possible. but any response would be most
welcome. i seek the surest method to allow my eyes to hear the numbers on
the page.

yours,
