processing_function()

void MayaFlux::Buffers::FinalLimiterProcessor::processing_function ( const std::shared_ptr< Buffer > &  buffer )

overridevirtual

Processes a buffer by enforcing boundary conditions.

Parameters

buffer

Buffer to process

This method applies a non-linear boundary enforcement algorithm to ensure all values stay within the valid range (typically -1.0 to 1.0) before being transmitted to hardware interfaces, while preserving the perceptual characteristics of the original signal.

Implements MayaFlux::Buffers::BufferProcessor.
