Interesting, yes, but of only limited value because it just gives sound
*levels* in dB. That doesn't tell you much because you don't know the frequency
components of the sound output and this makes a *big* difference in how
noticable the sound is. Given certain frequency components, a very quiet
sound can stand out much more than a relatively loud sound. Think "fingernails
on a black board" for an example.

What we need here are time/frequency/amplitude maps ;-)
