*CONVERT COMPLEX CURVE TO DB*
=============================

Converts a complex (pressure) curve to decibels (dB) by applying a pressure scaling factor. Use this worker when you need to express pressure-based frequency or time-domain curves in logarithmic dB scale for acoustics or NVH analysis.

     - Complex (pressure) curve to be converted to dB; expects a vector of pressure values over time or frequency — leave unconnected if the curve will be supplied at runtime.
