Chris Lowis suggests that a negative value for the Audio Gain Node would be useful. Chris Rogers agrees.

To add some detail around this suggestion: allowing a negative gain allows developers to create a "phase-inversion", which is a very useful feature, *not-limited* to the following uses: in music production - helping add clarity by positioning sounds in the stereo field, for noise reduction - cleaning up signals that have too much echo, and for use in general surround sound signal processing.
