\\ some simple amplitude and db examples, some of these taken from sc docs directly
\\ 0 db is full sc volume...

\\ convert -20 db to raw amplitude, and print out
-20.dbamp.postln

0.ampdb.postln \\ will get negative infinity, since is exponential

0.dbamp.postln \\ note gives amp of one

\\ sin sweeps from -3 db to -40 db
{ FSinOsc.ar(800, Line.kr(-3,-40,10).dbamp) }.scope;

-3.dbamp.postln 0.707946
-40.dbamp.postln 0.01


\\ now listen to a linear amplitude fade using those values
{ FSinOsc.ar(800, Line.kr(0.707946, 0.01, 10)) }.scope;



\\ remember:
\\ plot(ugenGraphFunction, duration, name, bounds)
\\ plot a linear db as amp, show exponential conversion
