What is dBFS?

dBFS (Decibels Full Scale) is a unit used in digital audio. Given that the maximum value varies depending on the bit depth, 0dBFS represents the maximum signal level for a specific bit depth, illustrating the peak level. To prevent clipping, common reference levels (Rms) are typically set at -18dBFS (for 24 bits or higher) or -12dBFS (for 16 bits).
