Notes on linear vs log power & units of different parameters / settings

[TomDonoghue]

This is an overview issue to keep track of some ideas about scales and units.

Here, in particular, we will keep track of things we wish to update for the 1.1 release.

Topics / todos:

• [ ] Check through and add some explicit notes about the expectation of linear spaced frequency values (see notes on this from Kenton below)
