  76. When this method is called, the buffer contains a number of channels which is
  77. at least as great as the maximum number of input and output channels that
  78. this filter is using. It will be filled with the filter's input data and
  79. should be replaced with the filter's output.
  80. So for example if your filter has a total of 2 input channels and 4 output
  81. channels, then the buffer will contain 4 channels, the first two being filled
  82. with the input data. Your filter should read these, do its processing, and
  83. replace the contents of all 4 channels with its output.
  84. Or if your filter has a total of 5 inputs and 2 outputs, the buffer will have 5
  85. channels, all filled with data, and your filter should overwrite the first 2 of
  86. these with its output. But be VERY careful not to write anything to the last 3
  87. channels, as these might be mapped to memory that the host assumes is read-only!
  88. If your plug-in has more than one input or output buses then the buffer passed
  89. to the processBlock methods will contain a bundle of all channels of each bus.
  90. Use AudiobusLayout::getBusBuffer to obtain an audio buffer for a
  91. particular bus.
  92. Note that if you have more outputs than inputs, then only those channels that
  93. correspond to an input channel are guaranteed to contain sensible data - e.g.
  94. in the case of 2 inputs and 4 outputs, the first two channels contain the input,
  95. but the last two channels may contain garbage, so you should be careful not to
  96. let this pass through without being overwritten or cleared.
  97. Also note that the buffer may have more channels than are strictly necessary,
  98. but you should only read/write from the ones that your filter is supposed to
  99. be using.
  100. The number of samples in these buffers is NOT guaranteed to be the same for every
  101. callback, and may be more or less than the estimated value given to prepareToPlay().
  102. Your code must be able to cope with variable-sized blocks, or you're going to get
  103. clicks and crashes!
  104. Also note that some hosts will occasionally decide to pass a buffer containing
  105. zero samples, so make sure that your algorithm can deal with that!
  106. If the filter is receiving a midi input, then the midiMessages array will be filled
  107. with the midi messages for this block. Each message's timestamp will indicate the
  108. message's time, as a number of samples from the start of the block.
  109. Any messages left in the midi buffer when this method has finished are assumed to
  110. be the filter's midi output. This means that your filter should be careful to
  111. clear any incoming messages from the array if it doesn't want them to be passed-on.
  112. Be very careful about what you do in this callback - it's going to be called by
  113. the audio thread, so any kind of interaction with the UI is absolutely
  114. out of the question. If you change a parameter in here and need to tell your UI to
  115. update itself, the best way is probably to inherit from a ChangeBroadcaster, let
  116. the UI components register as listeners, and then call sendChangeMessage() inside the
  117. processBlock() method to send out an asynchronous message. You could also use
  118. the AsyncUpdater class in a similar way.
