	Sample rate in Hz (set during initialization)

float	envelope
	Current envelope follower state (linear, 0-1)

Detailed Description

Dynamic range compressor settings and state.

Implements professional-quality dynamic range compression to prevent clipping and maintain consistent output levels. Uses sidechain input for gain reduction calculation.

COMPRESSION BEHAVIOR:

Acts above threshold_dB (no compression below threshold)
Applies compression ratio (e.g., 4:1 reduces 4dB above threshold to 1dB)
Soft knee provides smooth compression curve transition
Independent attack/release times for natural sound
Makeup gain compensates for gain reduction

Note: All time-based parameters (attack_ms, release_ms) are converted to coefficients internally for sample-by-sample processing.
