Ah, here we go, the "my dick is bigger than your dick" reply. Rising above that, I can see where carefully applied compression might be beneficial to reduce the dynamic range of a track to enable the overall level to be increased, albeit at the expense of SNR as any increase in signal level would also increase noise level. See, when I use the term "clipping", I mean this [1] or this [2], depending on context. Is that what you mean by "clipping"? Or did you mean "compression" ? R.
