Redlining in the DAW for maximum loudness - an analysis (Patreon)

Posted this on socials and figured you'd find it interesting here as well.

There's this trend I keep seeing coming up about driving Ableton into the red, I've even seen some people claim as far as it being a hidden "secret" for loudness the pros are using, and it's simply not true.

Here is an explanation for it - this actually racked my brain for a minute because it even had me wondering if there was some hidden loudness to be found in there. Turns out, there isn't - but there's some cool knowledge to have here.
