Input Clip Margin and Output Clip Margin These options set the
level, relative to the maximum (full scale) level, at which a clip
is reported on a channel. When a clip is detected, the entire
channel meter turns red.
To set Input or Output clip margin:
Click in the "dB Below Max" edit box for Input Clip Margin
1
or Output Clip Margin.
Enter a value or drag to change the value and press Enter.

The entered value is interpreted as a relative dB value from the
maximum (where "Max" is considered +20 dBVU). For exam-
ple, with the Input Clip Margin set to 6 dB below max (the de-
fault), peak levels within 6 dB of maximum level will trigger a
clip indication
Clip Hold Time and Peak Hold Time These options specify how
long clips and peaks are held. Default is 2 seconds for both
Clip and Peak hold.
