Hi William,
Hi Joao, you need to find the peak amplitude, max(abs(x)), and divide
all samples by that.
I'm not sure: if I use the amplitudes 1 0.5 0.25, the peak amplitude is 1,
and the wave is clearly outside of the 1/-1 boundaries.
Basically what I'm trying to do is to find out what is the formula that
does the "normalize" function.
Best,
Joao

Hello list,
I was curious about the following math issue: when defining a waveform
using "sinesum 0.8 0.2 0.1", what would be the formula to normalize the
wave to 1?
I tried adding all the values (=1.1 in this case), getting the inverse
value and multiplying the list with that. Although the sum of the
values is 1, the resulting wave isn't normalized to 1 the same way the
"normalize 1" command would do it. So I imagine some higher math is
required?
Also, is the process the same if the wave components are harmonic or
not (that is, multiples of the base frequency)?
Best,
