ritBuffer
ritBuffer is a data structure commonly encountered in real-time audio processing and digital signal processing. It is essentially a circular buffer, also known as a ring buffer. This data structure is characterized by its fixed size and its ability to overwrite old data with new data when the buffer becomes full. This makes it highly efficient for managing continuous streams of data, such as audio samples.
The circular nature of ritBuffer means that when the write pointer reaches the end of the buffer,
ritBuffer is frequently used in applications like audio playback, recording, effects processing, and buffering for network
