    Base class for audio processing filters or plugins.

    It is also used by the plugin hosting code as the wrapper around an instance

    Derive your filter class from this base class, and if you're building a plugin,

        When this method is called, the buffer contains a number of channels which is
        at least as great as the maximum number of input and output channels that
        this filter is using. It will be filled with the filter's input data and
        should be replaced with the filter's output.

        So for example if your filter has a total of 2 input channels and 4 output
        channels, then the buffer will contain 4 channels, the first two being filled
        with the input data. Your filter should read these, do its processing, and
        replace the contents of all 4 channels with its output.

        Or if your filter has a total of 5 inputs and 2 outputs, the buffer will have 5
        channels, all filled with data, and your filter should overwrite the first 2 of
        these with its output. But be VERY careful not to write anything to the last 3
        channels, as these might be mapped to memory that the host assumes is read-only!

        If your plug-in has more than one input or output buses then the buffer passed
        to the processBlock methods will contain a bundle of all channels of each bus.
        Use AudiobusLayout::getBusBuffer to obtain an audio buffer for a
        particular bus.

        Note that if you have more outputs than inputs, then only those channels that
        correspond to an input channel are guaranteed to contain sensible data - e.g.
        in the case of 2 inputs and 4 outputs, the first two channels contain the input,
        but the last two channels may contain garbage, so you should be careful not to
        let this pass through without being overwritten or cleared.

        Also note that the buffer may have more channels than are strictly necessary,
        but you should only read/write from the ones that your filter is supposed to
        be using.

        The number of samples in these buffers is NOT guaranteed to be the same for every
        callback, and may be more or less than the estimated value given to prepareToPlay().
        Your code must be able to cope with variable-sized blocks, or you're going to get
        clicks and crashes!

        Also note that some hosts will occasionally decide to pass a buffer containing
        zero samples, so make sure that your algorithm can deal with that!

        If the filter is receiving a midi input, then the midiMessages array will be filled
        with the midi messages for this block. Each message's timestamp will indicate the
        message's time, as a number of samples from the start of the block.

        Any messages left in the midi buffer when this method has finished are assumed to
        be the filter's midi output. This means that your filter should be careful to
        clear any incoming messages from the array if it doesn't want them to be passed-on.

        Be very careful about what you do in this callback - it's going to be called by
        the audio thread, so any kind of interaction with the UI is absolutely
        out of the question. If you change a parameter in here and need to tell your UI to
        update itself, the best way is probably to inherit from a ChangeBroadcaster, let
        the UI components register as listeners, and then call sendChangeMessage() inside the
        processBlock() method to send out an asynchronous message. You could also use
        the AsyncUpdater class in a similar way.

        should be replaced with the filter's output.

        So for example if your filter has a combined total of 2 input channels and
        4 output channels, then the buffer will contain 4 channels, the first two
        being filled with the input data. Your filter should read these, do its
        processing, and replace the contents of all 4 channels with its output.

        Or if your filter has 5 inputs and 2 outputs, the buffer will have 5 channels,
        all filled with data, and your filter should overwrite the first 2 of these

        If your plugin uses buses, then you should use AudiobusLayout::getBusBuffer()

        of the input and output channels correspond to which of the buses.

        The default implementation will simply call isBusesLayoutSupported.

        You only need to override this method if there is a chance that your AudioProcessor
        may not accept a layout although you have previously claimed to support it via the
