Is your recording format int16 or floating point?
It's floating point. That's what's hard-coded into Server-record.
It's not hard coded, it's just the default. You can change it by
setting recSampleFormat. Read the Server help.
If floating point, then the signal in the file isn't
really clipped.
So, if it's floating point it will wrap instead of clip? That doesn't
make
sense. Integers wrap, not floats.
What's strange is Audacity both displays and plays the aiff properly,
i.e.
clipped. Why doesn't Quicktime?
I could be wrong, but I seem to recall that QT doesn't support FP. FP
is a sensible default however, as it means no loss.
