WAV file read: int, long, or double

[LiveNathan]

Hi! Why do I need to choose this? How do I make the decision?

Here's an example file I'm reading: https://s3.amazonaws.com/appforest_uf/f1660040393454x716545782075606000/Y12%20ARC-48k.wav

This just selects the datatype that you want to load the data as.

Ah, ok. I'm not super familiar with WAV format, but isn't it natively int values?
Ultimately, I'm going to convert it to double to perform a normalization, so I guess I might as well read it in as doubles.

They are but in case the user needs scaled values as doubles, we can use double to read the file as a 2D array of double size.
