Hey guys, sorry maybe I used the wrong term. I mean consistent perceived 
volume from a waveform mixing section. So lets say there's 3 different 
waves (triangle, sine, square). If you're running the triangle alone, it 
sounds exactly the same volume as 'triangle with a bit of square', which 
sounds exactly the same volume as 'full triangle, full sine, full square'.
