I don't know how fast it *actually* is, but FWIW,
my old Behringer
compressor/limiter has a lowest attack setting of 0.1 ms, and a
lowest release setting of 50 ms.
If those sort of settings are to be available in a software compressor
then we need upsampling as the bandwidth of the sidechain must be at
least 10Khz (and possibly much higher) and the product of a 10Khz
bandwidth sidechain and a 20Khz bandwidth audio stream exceeds 1/2 the
SR for 44.1 and 48Khz.
For slower compression, the possibility of just including a low pass
filter in the sidechain processing just before the final sample * gain
calculation is an alternative.
Good dynamics processing in software is a pig.
