hariel1985 a587a43ff9 Initial release — InstaShadow mastering compressor v1.0
Dual-stage compressor (optical + VCA) with output transformer saturation.
- Port-Hamiltonian T4B opto-cell model with implicit trapezoidal integration
- Feed-forward VCA with 7 ratios, 6 attack/release presets, Dual release mode
- 3 transformer types (Nickel/Iron/Steel) with 4x oversampled waveshaping
- Analog-style needle VU meters, horizontal GR meters
- Sidechain HPF, stereo link, independent section bypass
- Full state save/restore, CI/CD for Windows/macOS/Linux
