Dynamic range soundcard tablet #260

For the APEX audiometry experiment on tablet, there seems to be a problem with the dynamic range of the tablet. This results in the softest sounds (20dB to -10dB) to be played at the same loudness, no audible difference.

Calculating dynamic range: wav file + calib = 80dB, then recalculate to lower intensities

This is probably due to the sound card being used in 16 bit mode (portaudio has a similar issue on windows) If possible we should change this to 24bit
