Re: Limiter issue? Recorded files being capped?
Clipping can occur anywhere within the signal chain. For example, some 12" singles are recorded so loud that they can overload normal consumer record players. Once the audio is clipped, the clipped signal will continue through to the analog/digital converter, into the computer, through the computer sound system, into Audacity and written to disk. To solve clipping problems, you need to trace the signal path from the sound source and check that at each step it does not clip.

I'm sorry. I believe the issue is with a setting in Audacity. I'm getting clipping on version 2.3.2 on Windows 10 laptop. When using old Vista desktop with version 2.0.2, I am not getting clipping.

Pleas tell us about your hardware setup.
Audacity doesn't mess-with the digital audio stream like that. It simply "captures" the digital audio from Windows. But, there are a couple of Windows settings that can mess-up the sound before it's recorded.I'm sorry. I believe the issue is with a setting in Audacity

yes, I understand its most likely a Windows issue. I'm not sure what you need for hardware. I'm using Toshiba Satellite laptop, intel i7-26700QM, 6GB ram, Windows 10 'Home' build 19041.685, 64 bit os
Re: Limiter issue? Recorded files being capped?
What are you recording? Are you recording from an analog microphone plugged into your computer? A USB microphone? A USB turntable, etc.?I'm not sure what you need for hardware.
Or are you recording streaming audio with no additional hardware?
