function soundsc(varargin)
%SOUNDSC Autoscale and play vector as sound.
%   SOUNDSC(Y,...) is the same as SOUND(Y,...) except the data is
%   scaled so that the sound is played as loud as possible without
%   clipping.  The mean of the data is removed.
%
%   SOUNDSC(Y,...,SLIM) where SLIM = [SLOW SHIGH] linearly scales
%   values in Y in the range [SLOW, SHIGH] to [-1, 1].  Values
%   outside this range are not clipped.  By default, SLIM is
%   [MIN(Y) MAX(Y)].

% Determine scaling vector, SLIM:
%
x = varargin{1};
xmin = min(x(:));

if user_scale,
    slim = varargin{end};
    varargin = varargin(1:end-1);  % remove SLIM from arg list
else

% SLIM are scaled to the range [-1 +1]
%

    % Protect against divide-by-zero errors:
