Your audio is peaking. Nothing is broken.

Try turning your mic line volume down a bit. If it is at 100% try 90% ish.

 

Turn your mic down and/or step back from it.

Clipping is the distortion you get from digital recordings when the input it too loud.

 

This is basically what I look like when doing voice hits but my setup is prob a lot fancier than most turker's setups.

Me too. Hi! Professional video/audio guy here. Nice to meet you.

 

I need to get a better mic dac/amp but meh what I have is already waaaay overkill for mturk lol.

You prob have a better setup than me though =p

 

Isn't this kind of the same as just having foam over a headset mic?
