professionalize peak-meters
The peak meter needs to withstand various test-signals
without visual jitter (in particular 1kHz sine) regardless
of settings (period-size, sample-rate, custom fall-off).
This needs to be done in sync (and not by a random non-rt
‘smoothing’ thread).
On the downside this voids the ‘visual smoothing’ particularly
with large buffersizes - but then again exactly this “always
fall-off no matter what [the next real data will be]” is the
problem.
One the upside, there’s one less high-frequency (100Hz) thread
(Yay!) PS. it probably never worked on windows, anyway.
Only peak-meters are affected by his change.
K-meters, IEC I/II and VU were never visually smoothed.
