//--------------------`(co.)peak_compression_gain_mono`-------------------
// Mono dynamic range compressor gain computer.
// `peak_compression_gain_mono` is a standard Faust function.
//
// #### Usage
//
// ```
// _ : peak_compression_gain_mono(strength,thresh,att,rel,knee,prePost) : _
// ```
//
// Where:
//
// * `strength`: strength of the compression (0 = no compression, 1 means hard limiting, >1 means over-compression)
// * `thresh`: dB level threshold above which compression kicks in
// * `att`: attack time = time constant (sec) when level & compression going up
// * `rel`: release time = time constant (sec) coming out of compression
// * `knee`: a gradual increase in gain reduction around the threshold:
// Below thresh-(knee/2) there is no gain reduction,
// above thresh+(knee/2) there is the same gain reduction as without a knee,
// and in between there is a gradual increase in gain reduction.
// * `prePost`: places the level detector either at the input or after the gain computer;
// this turns it from a linear return-to-zero detector into a log  domain return-to-threshold detector
//
// It uses a strength parameter instead of the traditional ratio, in order to be able to
// function as a hard limiter.
// For that you'd need a ratio of infinity:1, and you cannot express that in Faust
//
// Sometimes even bigger ratios are useful:
// For example a group recording where one instrument is recorded with both a close microphone and a room microphone,
// and the instrument is loud enough in the room mic when playing loud, but you want to boost it when it is playing soft.

//--------------------`(co.)compressor_lad_mono`-------------------
// Mono dynamic range compressor with lookahead delay.
// `compressor_lad_mono` is a standard Faust function.
//
// #### Usage
//
// ```
// _ : compressor_lad_mono(lad,ratio,thresh,att,rel) : _
// ```
//
// Where:
//
// * `lad`: lookahead delay in seconds (nonnegative) - gets rounded to nearest sample.
//          The effective attack time is a good setting.
// * `ratio`: compression ratio (1 = no compression, >1 means compression)
//            Ratios: 4 is moderate compression, 8 is strong compression,
//            12 is mild limiting, and 20 is pretty hard limiting at the threshold.
// * `thresh`: dB level threshold above which compression kicks in (0 dB = max level)
// * `att`: attack time = time constant (sec) when level & compression are going up
// * `rel`: release time = time constant (sec) coming out of compression

//-----------------------`(co.)limiter_lad_N`---------------------------------
// N-channel lookahead limiter inspired by IOhannes Zmölnig's post, which is 
// in turn based on the thesis by Peter Falkner "Entwicklung eines digitalen
// Stereo-Limiters mit Hilfe des Signalprozessors DSP56001".
// This version of the limiter uses a peak-holder with smoothed
// attack and release based on tau time constant filters.
//
// It is also possible to use a time constant that is 2*PI*tau by dividing 
// the attack and release times by 2*PI. This time constant allows for 
// the amplitude profile to reach 1 - e^(-2pi) of the final 
// peak after the attack time. The input path can be delayed by the same 
// amount as the attack time to synchronise input and amplitude profile, 
// realising a system that is particularly effective as a colourless
// (ideally) brickwall limiter.
//
// Note that the effectiveness of the ceiling settings are dependent on
// the other parameters, especially the time constant used for the
// smoothing filters and the lookahead delay. 
//
// Similarly, the colourless characteristics are also dependent on attack,
// hold, and release times. Since fluctuations above ~15 Hz are
// perceived as timbral effects, [Vassilakis and Kendall 2010] it is
// reasonable to set the attack time to 1/15 seconds for a smooth amplitude
// modulation. On the other hand, the hold time can be set to the
// peak-to-peak period of the expected lowest frequency in the signal,
// which allows for minimal distortion of the low frequencies. The
// release time can then provide a perceptually linear and gradual gain 
// increase determined by the user for any specific application.
//
// The scaling factor for all the channels is determined by the loudest peak 
// between them all, so that amplitude ratios between the signals are kept.
//
// #### Usage
//
// ```
// si.bus(N) : limiter_lad_N(N, LD, ceiling, attack, hold, release) : 
//    si.bus(N);
// ```
//
// Where:
//
// * `N` is the number of channels, known at compile-time.
// * `LD` is the lookahead delay in seconds, known at compile-time.
// * `ceiling` is the linear amplitude output limit.
// * `attack` is the attack time in seconds.
// * `hold` is the hold time in seconds.
// * `release` is the release time in seconds.
//
// Example for a stereo limiter: limiter_lad_N(2, .01, 1, .01, .1, 1);
