==== Clamping vs. Clipping ====<br />
FYI, ''clamping'' is used on [[Levels]], and throughout the site, where ''clipping'' is the more correct term.<br />
*In electronics, a '''Clamper''' circuit sets a certain DC level.<br />
::[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clamper_%28electronics%29 Clamper] (wikipedia)<br />

*A '''Clipper''' restricts amplitude to a certain range.<br />

...maybe ''clamping'' is used here because it sounds less destructive than ''clipping''. <br><br />
The intended meaning is clear enough; there's no need to change it, I think.<br><br />
I'm curious if this usage of ''clamping'' is seen elsewhere. --[[User:Raffriff42|Raffriff42]] 13:16, 19 January 2016 (CET)</div>Raffriff42
