AUDIO HEADROOM
In digital audio systems, signal levels exceeding allowable values are clipped (uniformly assigned
the maximum value), inevitably entailing audible issues. TriCaster’s Record Configuration panel
provides an Audio Headroom setting that lets you choose an offset value (in decibels) between
0dB FS (the maximum allowable digital level) and the benchmark ‘alignment level’.
