Headroom and clipping
In this lesson we cover headroom and clipping as part of Gain staging theory. The video walks through the concept on a bench rig first, then applies it in a demonstration vehicle using the DSP + Amplifiers.
Key takeaway: make one change at a time, measure, and document it in your commissioning notes — vetting engineers look for a repeatable process, not just a good result.
