MDA — MultiDimensionalArray cross-track compressor
==================================================

MDA is a two-plugin system:

  MDA Send   Insert one on every source track. Each Send applies the shared
             compressor law to its own track.

  MDA Sum    Put one on a blank track. It owns the compressor settings, observes
             all matching Sends, and publishes the shared control information.
             It intentionally produces no audio of its own.

Both plugins are required and must use the same Bus number.

Supported release formats
-------------------------

  Windows   VST3, CLAP, AAX
  macOS     VST3, CLAP, AU, AAX (universal arm64 + x86_64)
  Linux     VST3, CLAP

AU is an Apple-only format. AAX is released only for Windows and macOS because
the Avid SDK/PACE signing toolchain is not available as a Linux plugin target.

Standard install locations
--------------------------

Windows:

  VST3  C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
  CLAP  C:\Program Files\Common Files\CLAP
  AAX   C:\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins

macOS:

  VST3  /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3
  CLAP  /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/CLAP
  AU    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
  AAX   /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins

Linux:

  Extract MDA-<version>-Linux.tar.gz, then run:

    ./install.sh
    ./install.sh --system
    ./install.sh --uninstall
    ./install.sh --uninstall --system

  The default per-user destinations are ~/.vst3 and ~/.clap. System-wide
  installation uses /usr/lib/vst3 and /usr/lib/clap.

  For a manual install, copy both .vst3 bundle directories to ~/.vst3 and both
  .clap files to ~/.clap.
