You will recall that I have said previously: "... or you're possibly using the term incorrectly." I believe you are using the term incorrectly. There is a subtle difference between "clipping" and compression/limiting. Raw clipping is bad. Compression/limiting is used to increase the apparent loudness of tracks (see Loudness wars [1]), which I personally thinks is almost as bad! > Your right, I was correcting the "increase in dynamic range" in that > post when you replied.

I actually read the forum via the mailing list interface so I only get to see your first posting, not subsequent edits. > There is at least 1/2 dozen folks that replied to this thread staeing > keeping Transporter/SB at full scale is critical.

There *are* at least 1/2 dozen folks who have stated that it is important to keep the Transporter *near* full-scale for well-understood reasons. I think you are the only person who is stating that it should be kept *at* full-scale. R.
