I've never noticed a problem with clipping while using the Delay 
effects on the AN1x.  That said - the AN1x OS v1.04 ROM from Yamaha 
reportedly addressed an issue where clipping could occur specific to 
using the Sync Delay effect.

On the AN1x, one of the Delay effects is for synchronizing to the 
internal Arp/Seq or incoming MIDI Clock (the AN1x does not transmit 
MIDI Clock.) The other Delay effecrs require the user to calculate 
the correct ms of the note division you wish to match for the tempo 
of your song.
