What is clipping?

Clipping is the name used to describe the result of a digital recording or mixing system being over loaded by an input or output signal level. Clipping means the the mathematics that represent an audio signal in the digital domain have exceeded. The finite numerical values end at 0dBFS and beyond this point invalid values are recorded or reproduced which produce distortion.
