"DSD on the other hand is more tolerant of clipping. it behaves more like analog tape in this respect."No it doesn't. There is no saturation effect. If the signal clips you end up with large sequences of zero's (or ones).
You're even advised to keep record levels below -6dB.
With pcm you can max out if subsequent processing is done with 32bit or higher accurracy.Frank
