How to adjust gain without clipping
Check the available headroom first
The current peak shows how far the file is below 0 dBFS. Use that headroom as the upper limit for added gain.
Watch the predicted peak
Adjust gain while keeping the predicted peak at or below 0 dBFS. Crossing that ceiling would clip samples when the file is exported.
Leave room for later processing
If the track will still pass through EQ, effects, or mixing, stop below the maximum and preserve some headroom for those stages.
Audio gain FAQ
Use the peak and waveform as the limit. Increase gain until the track reaches the level you need, but keep the predicted peak at or below 0 dBFS to avoid sample clipping.
Gain only changes level. It does not restore detail, change dynamics, or make a poor source higher quality.
Peak level measures the highest sample, not average or perceived loudness. Tracks with different dynamics can share the same peak and still feel very different.
Processing runs on your device, so export time mainly depends on CPU performance, available memory, and track length; long tracks and lower-powered devices take longer. If export fails, close memory-heavy tabs or apps and try again with the latest browser version. If it still fails, use a computer with more available memory.
