Audio Filters for Clipping

[Lobalobo]

To record a piano recital, I bought a Canon Vixia R70 consumer camcorder and the accompanying WM-V1 wireless receiver/mic set. I placed the mic (in its windscreen, for what that might be worth) in the body of the piano and monitored the audio level, adjusting where necessary using the receiver's volume control button; I successfully limited peaks to about -12db (at least according to the camcorder's monitor). In general, this inexpensive setup worked better than I could have hoped, with one exception: on intensely loud portions of some pieces, the recorded sound includes a sort of vibration or buzz of a kind heard when volume is pushed past a speaker's limit (thought that is not the case as the sound occurs on playback at any volume). Perhaps these portions went beyond -12db despite my monitoring and clipped, though I'm not sure how. In any case, I'm looking for a way to fix the recording.

The "Audio Filters" function of Video Studio (I use X8) seemed promising. But I wonder whether any of the listed filters would solve this "clipping" problem (if that's what it is) without otherwise reducing the sound quality. Advice on this question or any solution the problem would be more than welcome. Thanks in advance.

You can split the audio from the video and create an independent audio file in "Share". The audio file can then be edited in an audio editor such as Audacity and returned to VS in the normal way.
