▶ MY FREE PLUGINS 🔗 ▶ MIXING COURSES 🔗 ▶ BEST RETAILER USA 🔗 ▶ BEST RETAILER EU 🔗 This is part two of the clipper scam video series. In part one, I establish that clipping isn't the best tool in the toolbox for mixing, despite its popularity, that it takes only one or two lines of code to write a clamp function and that the term “soft clipping“ is poorly defined. This is because “clipping“ is identical to clamping and clamping is by definition not soft. Whereas what many people are actually referring to when they use the term “soft clipping“ is actually saturation, the latter being the superior term to describe the process. In part one I state how many of the terms thrown about all just mean distortion and its better just to call it what it is, distortion, and if you want to be specific, rather than using some marketing hype term, you should refer to it by its correct mathematic or electronic term. We are supposed to be engineers. Engineers use accurate terminology, not marketing buzz language. In part 2, we see how clipping doesnt make stuff loud in the real world, how it can damage speakers and how saturation is still the better choice over clipping.
