Hi there, where can I find info about headroom and clipping on Pd. Or can anyone tell me quickly how it goes?
Does it always really clip over a maximum of 1, or is there some headroom? Does it depend on the audiocard or something?
The soundcard will always clip above +1 and below -1, and sometimes even within those limits (if the interpolated waveform between samples goes over the limit). Pd will not clip internally, so you can calculate with larger numbers as long as you scale them back down before listening to them.
