[linux-audio-dev] TAP Scaling Limiter - how's it work?

[Paul Winkler]

Hi folks, and Tom if you're listening,

The description of the TAP Scaling Limiter is
very interesting - http://tap-plugins.sourceforge.net/#limiter
I'm just curious, having done no real DSP coding - 
it must do some internal buffering, right? 

So how does it deal with half-cycles that fall on the edge of a 
buffer? It seems to me that you can't process the final 
half-cycle without refilling the buffer, but you can't refill the 
buffer until you've processed all its data - or can you?
