To avoid clipping, you need to check the input level before recording:
1. Click the “In” button above the level meters (next to the fader on the mixer channel strip).
When the “In” button is lit, the level meter will show the input level (as opposed to the level of
the playback signal).
2. Activate your audio source.
You will see the level meters reacting.
3. Adjust the output level of your audio source so that the meters go as high as possible
without activating the red Clip indicator above the meters.
If the Clip indicator lights up, the input level is too high. Reset the Clip indicator by clicking on it,
lower the output level of the audio source and try again.
