A low-pass filter codec compression scheme; now that sounds like genuine snake
oil to me!

On a serious note, this may already be employed in hardware samplers. I
couldn’t find much info on it. SNES and Playstation store samples in a
compressed ADPCM format.

Right, it's not linear, because probably there are quantization
differences for absolute volume differences, and surely, frequency
components are approximated, and there is a maximum in information that
it can put in the encoded output,
Lossy encoding wouldn't necessarily be non-linear in all cases.
Of course it is non-linear. Lossy encoding does not satisfy the
conditions of linearity:
f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b)
f(a.b) = a.f(b)

BTW, what does linearity have to do with implementing compressed audio into
samplers? Why not just include a decoder upon playback?

Now we consider the linearity of the
