What does the dB represent? What is its reference?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibels
It is a "dimensionless unit", relative to some 0 dB reference.
Why not use the dBfs scale (0dB is the clipping ceiling and everything below is measured negative) if we're running digital?
What dB value in PD is equivalent to unity gain?
100dB is unity gain in PD: http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/node17.html -- Marc
