Last post by ngs428 -Would you be interested in more statistics in the output? Just knowing that samples clip doesn't yet tell how bad it is. Exceeding the full scale by 0.1 dB would not matter at all, but exceeding it by 3 dB could be a problem.
I could for example log how large percentage of clipping exceeded full scale by 1 dB, how much by 2 dB, etc.
After reading this, it got me thinking of what the "Clipping Samples" or "Album Clipping" actually tells us. I have some tracks that show thousands of clips and I have only scanned a handful of tracks, are the clips only 0.1 dB over, hard to say... Understanding how far the clip exceeds full scale by % of clips makes sense. Similar to what you described. % clips >1dB, % clips >2dB, % clips >3dB, etc., would give a user an understating of the impact of the clipping.
Thanks for your continued work on this component! I'm working to digest what all the terms mean!
