Lookahead brickwall limiter. A sliding-window maximum (monotonic deque) over

npm install @audio/dynamics-limiter

import limiter from '@audio/dynamics-limiter'

Lookahead brickwall limiter. A sliding-window maximum over the lookahead span drives the envelope, so gain reduction always covers every sample in transit — instant attack lookahead ms before a peak emerges, exponential release after it passes.

import { limiter } from '@audio/dynamics'

limiter(data, { ceiling: -0.3 })
limiter(data, { ceiling: -1, lookahead: 10, release: 100 })

| Param | Default | | |---|---|---| | ceiling | -0.3 | dB (brickwall) | | lookahead | 5 | ms (introduces delay) | | release | 50 | ms |

Use when: master bus ceiling, true-peak safety, preventing inter-sample clipping. Not for: musical dynamics shaping — use compressor. Low-latency paths — use softclip.
