If you listen what it sounds like when a sound is above 0dB on something FL Studio or voicemeeter, it sounds different when the principle is the same, and on FL it sometimes makes it sound better
In: Technology
* There could be a few things at play here.
* The software could be handling the clipping.
* Your hardware could be handling the clipping.
* A combination of both.
* When the hardware handles the clipping, you’ll get a certain type of sound.
* This has to do with how the digital-to-analog-converter (DAC) is designed.
* Some software will simply pass a clipped signal along to the output hardware (DAC etc) and that’s that.
* Some software will detect a clip and attempt to process it to sound more like analog equipment that clips.
* In analog gear, the clipping is more rounded off and doesn’t sound as harsh.
