adminandClaude Opus 5.5 25084f8576 Refactoring round 10: split SoundLibrary, fold sound duplicates (#85)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 4m3s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 14m52s
Refactoring round 10 covers everything since round 9 (808e1ee): 110
commits with about 47 000 new lines, nearly all of them sound, sound
FX, instruments, patterns and songs. Behaviour is unchanged.

Duplicate code (jscpd over src, 50 tokens, TypeScript only, measured
on 808e1ee and here alike: 47 clones / 426 lines before, 33 / 245
after; round 9 itself ended at 22 / 160 by this count):

- PreviewParams (new, editor/soundfx) is the header's parameter bar
  of the Sound FX and the Instrument tab: values, defaults, fields
  and the voices a moved field reaches. Both tabs had it line for
  line.
- fxWorklet: an Effect base runs the bit crusher, phaser, flanger,
  limiter, LFO and bus shifter, a Source base the pitch player and
  the Chip. Start is the one wait for a voice's first sample, which
  four processors wrote out each.
- nodes/shared has checkPort, detachedPort, fxParamsPort and
  letRingPort. The Play and Stop nodes of sounds, notes, patterns and
  songs spelled each port out, up to five times.
- parameterValues builds both Sound FX parameters and Instrument
  parameters, which differed in name and text only.
- SetLoopCommand sets the ruler loop of a pattern or a song. It
  replaces SetPatternLoopCommand and SetSongLoopCommand.
- addLink in music/routing is the one rule for a link that both the
  song routing and the Master routing keep.
- eqCurves works out each band and their sum for the EQ tab, which
  did that in its drawing code. It replaces eqCurveDb, which only a
  test called.
- Smaller ones: the eight neighbour directions of a tile cell, and
  drawFloatingBox for the shadowed box of Popup and FloatWindow.
- Left on purpose: Play pattern and Play song stay two parallel node
  definitions, and the smaller clones under ten lines stay.

Architecture:

- SoundLibrary.ts goes from 2897 to 2188 lines. What a stage of a
  sound FX becomes as Web Audio nodes, and how the knobs of a playing
  voice move, is now viewport/fxNodes.ts. None of it keeps state of
  the library.

Dead code (TS language service, references per export and member):

- soundRefIds, LFO_SHAPE_INDEX, TREMOLO_ROWS, VIBRATO_ROWS and
  REVERB_ROWS had no reader. The four routing node defs are
  registered without an unused exported name.
- soundFileOf and portTypeOf were called by tests only. The tests
  now ask findSound and portOf, which the editor uses. DRY moves
  from src into the one test that uses it.
- 51 values used only in their own file lose their `export`. Types
  and the node catalogues stay exported.
- Kept on purpose: neighboursOf is the cell by cell reading the
  indexed neighboursIn is checked against, and PitchShifter.latency
  is the test's one view of how late the shifter is.

Comments and docs:

- Seven comments told history ("no longer", "any more", "as
  before", "of before #354"). Nine comment blocks ran far past the
  line width. Proof that this changed no code: the bundle was md5
  identical, and the touched tests and e2e modules were identical
  after esbuild.
- README: sound FX, instrument, pattern, song and bus in the asset
  list, the pages Instruments, Patterns and Songs, 1919 checks.
- Wiki: see its own commit.

Tests:

  Gate (melektaus-atx)    274 files, 4236 tests, CHECK EXIT 0
  e2e 34, 64, 65          ALL PASSED, 180 checks
  Unit, touched areas     16 files, 804 tests

No check was added, the e2e sum stays at 1919. Counter-checks, each
put back by copy and compared with cmp:

- addLink without the loop rule: 2 tests fail, one per routing.
- eqCurves with the sum of the last band only: 1 test fails.
- Start in the worklet never waiting: e2e 34 fails in exactly the
  four checks that hang on a voice's first sample (Flanger, Tremolo,
  Chip, a pitched note planned ahead).

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 8891f027db Pick a pattern's sign in one row, as a song's (#364)
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m52s
game-maker / suite (push) Successful in 15m0s
A pattern had two rows for its meter, Beats per bar and Beat, while a
song has had one row Sign since #363. Both now pick from the same list.

- The list of signs and how a sign becomes a meter moved to time.ts.
  Song and pattern share it.
- A pattern keeps its meter in `sign`. The fields `beats` and `beat`
  are gone, a sign that is not in the list counts as 4/4.
- Create pattern in a song hands the song's sign to the new pattern.
- The four patterns of cbbf160bb7e8 were moved to `sign` by hand
  (three 4/4, one 3/4). The other projects only had 4/4, which stays
  the default.

Tests:
- Unit pattern/embedded: 30 green (1 new, 2 rewritten), the
  counter-test reading `beats` again turns 2 red
- e2e 64 + 65 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 85 checks
- Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 272 files, 4215 tests

adminandClaude Opus 5.5 4ea752feef Draw notes for an instrument in a piano roll and loop them #333
game-maker / gate (push) Successful in 3m22s
game-maker / suite (push) Failing after 13m18s
Notes could only be played one at a time, by a key or a behavior. A
pattern is a stretch of notes for one instrument, drawn in a piano
roll and played in time through the scheduler of #332. Songs (#334)
will lay patterns out on tracks.

- New asset type pattern under the heading Patterns. Instruments are
  listed under Instruments now, since a heading is one per type.
- Notes are a start and a length in ticks, a note number and a
  velocity, kept to their rules on load and in every command. The
  instrument, the length in bars, the grid, the meter and the tempo
  are rows in the inspector. The loop is the asset's own data, the
  whole pattern while none is set.
- Grids from 1/1 to 1/32 and the triplets 1/4T to 1/32T, all whole
  ticks. The meter only moves the bar lines, the notes stay put.
- The tab shows the keys down the left, a ruler with bars, beats,
  loop and start along the top, the notes between them and a
  velocity lane below. Keys the instrument plays nothing for are
  grey, the names of a drum kit stand on its keys.
- A click draws a note on the grid line before the pointer, as long
  as the last one drawn or lengthened and as hard as the last
  velocity set. The body moves a note, the right end lengthens it,
  Alt leaves the grid. A drag on empty grid picks with a band, Shift
  adds, a right-click deletes.
- Keys: Space plays, Delete, Ctrl+C/V/D/A, the arrows by a semitone
  or a grid step and with Shift by an octave or a bar. A paste lands
  where playing starts. Every gesture is one undo step.
- A click on the ruler sets where playing starts, a drag the loop or
  one of its ends, its menu loops a bar or the whole pattern.
- The wheel scrolls, Shift across, on the ruler or with Alt it zooms.
  Ctrl+wheel stays with the browser, Pixi listens passively.
- Play runs the loop through the scheduler. An edit goes to it on
  the next window without a restart, a new loop or tempo counts from
  what is planned. Another pattern shown or a project opened stops it.
- The time axis and the ruler are their own pieces in editor/music
  for the song tab. The rules of the roll are pure functions in
  rollView and rollEdit.

Findings:
- Music.play could start after a stop that came while it was still
  loading its files. A run counter makes the late start give up.
  Music.edit now loads what a new note needs as well.
- A click on an end of the loop would have set the loop again. A
  press there only moves the end once it is dragged.

Tests:
- pattern.test.ts (new, 9) and piano-roll.test.ts (new, 16): model,
  grids, meter, held notes, sequence, commands, loop, round trip,
  drum names, time lines, rows, hits, bands, lane, edit rules.
- e2e 64 (new) on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 20 checks. e2e 4 with
  29 asset types: ALL PASSED, 62 checks.
- Gate on melektaus-atx: CHECK EXIT 0, 247 test files, 3839 tests.
- Counter-checks: the move without its clamp, the sequence without
  the end of the pattern, the duplicate offset without whole grid
  steps each fail 1 test. Without passing edits to the scheduler the
  e2e check for a note drawn while playing fails, the rest passes.
- Probe on stein2: the tab with a drum kit, before and while playing,
  looked at in two screenshots.
