Re: A Second Take on some audio
That's called clipping for producing waveforms that look like somebody took scissors to the top and bottom. It's actually overload and it could have been either analog (plugging a sound mixer wrong into a PC laptop) or digital (mismanagement of audio gain tools).
This is the buildup to me saying the show, if it's all like that, is trash. There is software that can mask damage caused by very brief, light overload that happens once every 20 minutes, but when every cycle of every sound waveform is damaged, you're dead.
