// ── Command budget ──
//
// The audio callback has a hard deadline — 1.45 ms at the default 64 frames,
// 0.73 ms if the device asks for 32 — and applying commands is the one thing
// in it whose size the audio thread does not control. Loading a preset queues
// one command per control, 59 of them on the Odyssey; opening a session
// queues an AddTrack, a SetInstrument and a full parameter block per track,
// plus two commands per clip. Draining all of that in one callback is an
// unbounded amount of work behind a fixed deadline, which is a dropout.
//
// So each callback spends a fixed budget and stops. Nothing is dropped and
// nothing is reordered: what is left stays queued, in order, and the next
// callback continues from there. A burst that does not fit is spread over
// consecutive callbacks — for a session load that is a few milliseconds with
// the transport stopped, and for a preset it is at worst one buffer rendered
// with part of the old panel, which is 1.45 ms.

///
/// * **1** — writes into memory that already exists. Setting a parameter is a

/// * **[`HEAVY_COMMAND`]** — allocates, frees, or both. `SetInstrument` calls
///   `Plugin::init`, which builds a voice array and, on the Juno, a chorus
///   delay line; `AddTrack` allocates two audio buffers; `RemoveTrack` and
///   `UpdateClip` free what they replace.
///
/// Measured in release on a 64-frame callback: four instrument loads take
/// 30 µs against 1.4 µs for four `AddTrack` and 6.8 µs for sixty-four
/// parameter changes, and the callback's own rendering with one instrument on
/// it is 15 µs. So a flat count would be wrong in both directions: sixty-four

/// Design notes:
///
/// * **Stereo-linked.** One gain, computed from `max(|L|, |R|)` and applied

///   across to the other.
/// * **Instant attack.** The gain that a sample needs is applied to that
///   same sample, not `n` samples later, so there is no overshoot to clean
///   up afterwards and no lookahead buffer to pay for. The alternative — a
///   millisecond attack — would let a millisecond of overshoot through, and
