Provide a facility for automatically normalizing the amplitude of Csound instruments. #6

Ideally, when you write a Csound instrument, it will have a default amplitude correction factor of 1.0. Provide a facility to determine a correction factor for any Csound instrument that wiill produce an amplitude of -6 dBFS for a MIDI velocity of 80.

Perhaps it will be necessary to shell out and run another instance of Csound with the instrument, or something like that.

Upon reflection, I am not going to do this. It seems likely to be a fair amount of work to produce something that might be fragile.
