I think the yamaha is like my roland, you can set the point at which the meter clips. The roland has a setting of either clip, 3db before clip, or 6db before clip. You may be metering a signal that actually isnt clipping.
Thanks for replying. If the 2816 has that feature, I don't think I have it set that way.
I believe the levels have jumped over zero.
You play a part just the way you want and it really sucks to have to record it over.
