3.4 Leveler Section
A leveler is used to maintain constant levels over long segments of audio. Essentially, a leveler is a compressor set to very long attack
and release times. A leveler can also be viewed as an RMS compressor. The leveler smoothly and transparently gain-rides any signal
that exceeds its threshold, bringing it back down as close as possible to the desired target level (the threshold).
