Reported: the TRAX bar moves, but its sampling looks far slower than the mic meter.
Cause: the TRAX number was a raw instantaneous peak per metering block — a stutter sampled by the UI
timer, with no smoothing. The mic looks fluid because it is smoothed at audio-callback rate.
Fix: the player now smooths its measured level with the SAME curve the mic uses
(MeterScale.NextLevel: fast attack, gentle decay), and the dock's meter clock runs at ~30 Hz instead
of 20. Two ladders that move alike, because they are the same ballistics.
Guard: MeterScaleTests pins the attack/decay behaviour alongside peak-hold.
