or you could even just change the +~ object into a [/~ n] object, and put all of the inputs in the first inlet, since all the audio streams on an inlet get summed automatically. except for the [+~ int] usage, the +~ object is usually redundant.
debatable if it "improves readability"... for example, adding 40 audio streams together in a binary tree of [+~] objects probably isn't the most elegant visual representation.
does anyone know which way is more efficient? potentially the "all in one inlet" approach could be (since pd knows more about what is really going on).

mixing them. This is most pronounced when at higher volumes. I thought that I might be overloading my amplifier, but it acts the same if listened to through headphones.
If the sample values going into [dac~] are outside of [-1, 1] then you are clipping the signal... (that's the soundcard clipping not the amp) solution; place before the dac~, [/~ n] for n = the number of signals you've added together.
