Hola Andres,

Here's what's happening:  I'm using a midi controlled instrument so somewhere inside the code I have the following statement:
iamp   ampmidi  15000
If I try to record the output like this it results in a distorted file.
Now if I set 0dbfs = 1  and change the above statement to iamp ampmidi 1 (or some value between 0 and 1 excluding 0) it records fine with no distortion.  Any other setup results in a distorted file.

If I try to write 0dbfs = 0 like you suggested I get the followng error message.....  bad value for 0dbfs: must be positive.
Let me know if you'd like me to send you the code so you can try it. 

Cheers,

Nicolás
