We're proud to present to you the brand new AnalogXAi Prism Series 2 ADC Clipper profiles. Used by the professionals to glean that additional couple of dB of loudness on tracks, busses, stems and master bus.
It's a fairly simple process and a common practice amongst mix and mastering engineers for a long time, so if you haven't tried it yet, you should definitely give it a try! It can be thought of as an alternative to limiting and in some cases, saturation.
Analog-to-digital clipping, often referred to as digital clipping, occurs when the input signal surpasses the maximum level that can be accurately represented in the digital domain. While it is generally advisable to avoid clipping, there are instances in both mixing and mastering where intentional clipping can be used for creative purposes.
It's important to note that while intentional clipping can be a powerful tool, it should be used judiciously and with an understanding of its impact on the overall sound. Excessive clipping can lead to unpleasant artifacts and compromise the integrity of the audio signal. As with any audio processing technique, it's recommended to rely on your ears and carefully monitor the results to achieve the desired sonic outcome.
