I just set up my Mac Pro to send system audio via Optical/SPDIF and I am getting clipping on the inputs of the OMNI when I play mastered tracks from Quicktime. Is there a way to trim these? Seems that lowering the volume in the hardware mixer window is just that: volume only. I have "Sample Rate Conversion" checked... am I missing something?
Surely I can reduce the volume in Quicktime/iTunes etc, but that seems a bit ghetto
