Show Clipping: Set # of consecutive samples

[sfought]

I've searched but haven't found a way to change the number of consecutive samples used by the "Show Clipping" feature. Many commercial tracks contain some level of clipping, so it'd be nice to be able to bump the number of samples up.

Thank you for your time.

I moved this from the 1.2 Forum because "Show Clipping" is not in 1.2. Show clipping displays every sample that reaches +/- 0.0 and is not configurable. Analyze > Find Clipping by default produces a label where there is a run of three consecutive clipped samples, which is the same threshold that the VU meters have. The Find Clipping threshold is configurable.

Thanks for moving it.

I understand that 'Find Clipping' is configurable, but I'd still like to see 'Show Clipping' made configurable, since it updates in real time.

Thanks.

I've added this suggestion to the Clipping section of our user-editable Feature Requests page:
