db is the RMS across the band's bins — NOT the loudest one — so a single transient bin cannot
paint a whole band hot. peakDb keeps that loudest bin anyway, because "this band is loud" and
"something in this band hit full scale" are different signals and only the second is a clip.
One log-spaced band.
