Voxengo OVC-128: Hardness 100%, 128x OversamplingĪttached please find the waveform statistics for the original sample.The following were already at their maximum OS setting: Venn Audio V-Clip: Hard Clip, 256x Oversampling - Linear Phase.Tokyo Dawn Labs TDR Limiter 6 GE: Quality - Insane, Clipper only, Mode - Brick wall, Threshold 0.0 dB, Knee 6.0 dB, HQ Rendering.SIR Audio Tools StandardCLIP: Mode: Hard Clip, 256x Oversampling.

LVC-Audio Clipped-MAX: Master module, Hard algorithm, Harmonic 100%, Linear-HQ 128x Oversampling.Kazrog KClip: Single band, Crisp mode, 32x Oversampling.I have re-run the tests for the clippers with oversampling options, selecting the maximum OS setting: Thanks again for doing this! Looking forward to listening soon. Knowing the approximate amount of clipping is important (to me) as various clippers perform differently according to how deep the clipping is. We dont know if the original WAV had 2 or 5dB of headroom, resulting in either 4 or 1dB of clipping respectively. Best foot forward approach.Ģ) You mention the gain/drive at +6dB, but don't tell us the max clip level. So I suggest you allow each plugin to rock their max oversampling settings. Turning that off (if you could) would defeat the reason why the clipper was made in the first place right? To keep the comparison fair, plug-ins with oversampling options were limited to 4x oversampling.Nice work! I will listen tomorrow but I have a few initial comments:ġ) Why cripple oversampling on certain plugins when oversampling is an integral component of what makes a clipper sound good or not?įor example OVC-128 is named after its prized 128x oversampling.

I tested the AU (Audio Units) version of each plug-in below in Logic Pro X: Do clippers change the tonal balance of a mix?
