Rebuild the Acid node after the acid voice of nodeseq (#421)
The first Acid hardly squelched. Its tanh ate the resonance, and its sweep fell evenly in octaves. The user pointed at the acid tone of nodeseq.com/studio, so the node now follows how that voice is built from Web Audio parts. - The filter is a two-pole 12 dB low-pass with Q in dB up to 17.5, like a BiquadFilterNode. The ladder and its tanh are gone. - One ADSR drives both the volume and the filter. The sweep falls back in Hz, fast from the top and long at the bottom. - Every note glides from the one before. A new note cuts the last one off, and the node plays its release itself. - Knobs: cutoff, reso, env, attack, decay, sustain, release and glide. The defaults are the acid preset of nodeseq. - Accent, slide, drive and tuning are dropped. Old projects were not kept, the user had only placed the node for a try. - A hook __gm.acid.compare renders a line offline through our worklet and through the nodeseq graph, for e2e 34. Found on the way: in Chrome an oscillator that starts inside a render block runs its first samples at 440 Hz. The comparison evens this out. Tests: - tsc, eslint, Prettier clean - Unit: acid.test.ts rewritten with 12 tests. chip-presets and sound-library follow the new node. - e2e 34 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 148 checks. Against nodeseq the loudness per 10 ms window is at most 0.14 dB apart, and 95 to 97 % of the windows are equally bright. - With a linear Q instead of Q in dB the comparison is red. - Gate on melektaus-atx: green, 306 files, 4752 tests. That is 4754 less the 14 old and plus the 12 new Acid tests. - Not checked: the sound by ear, the master chain of nodeseq, the keyboard and a bake with the new node.

Add an Acid instrument node for TB-303 style bass lines (#421)
The instruments could only come near a 303 with a Chip, a Filter and two envelopes. The biquad filter does not saturate, every note strikes anew, and there was no slide and no accent. - Acid is a new instrument node that plays a saw or a square through a four-pole ladder low-pass with tanh saturation, oversampled twice. Knobs: cutoff, resonance, env mod, decay, accent, tuning and slide time. - An accent comes from the velocity, from 0.9 on. It is louder, opens the filter further with a shorter decay, and accents close behind each other build up. - Two notes that touch or overlap slide. Each note stays a voice of its own, so the scheduler is unchanged. The notes of a line share one synth in the worklet, and the new voice takes it over from its first sample on. - The node sets its own volume, so it needs no envelope behind it. - The graph shows it as a device with the filter curve at rest and at the top of the sweep. - A preset Acid Bass puts an Acid in front of a short echo. Tests: - tsc, eslint, Prettier clean - Unit: 14 new tests in acid.test.ts for pitch, low-pass, resonance, sweep, accent, slide and the handover between two voices. - e2e 34 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 148 checks (3 new). The handover sits on sample 4800 and jumps by 0.0012, of three notes only the second slides. - Without the handover, or with a slide that strikes anew, the unit tests are red. - Gate on melektaus-atx: tsc, eslint, Prettier clean, 4753 of 4754 tests green. The red one was sound-library.test.ts, which did not know the new slid count in the stats. Fixed, and the file alone is green again with 128 tests. No second full gate. - Not checked: the sound by ear, slide at the keyboard, a bake with Acid, the CPU load of many notes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Show Tremolo, Vibrato, Phaser and Flanger as devices that swing (#398)
The four effects that swing were still drawn as rows of numbers. Like
the Delay, the Saturation and the Limiter, each node now shows a device
of a fixed size. Its screen draws what it does over the first seconds
of a sound, and a light plays that in real time, over and over.
- One device for all four (ModulationPanel, ModulationFace and
modulationView), as KnobPanel is for Gain, Pitch, Mix and Pan. A short
description gives each its title, plate, buttons and knobs.
- Tremolo, 640x280 in cream: a wave its volume shapes, the volume as
its outline. It says DOWN TO 50%, EVERY 200 ms and DIPS -6 dB.
- Vibrato, 640x280 in plum: the pitch in semitones, cool below and warm
above. Under a wet below 1 the dry pitch stands beside it. It says
how late the voice is (LATE 0.93 ms).
- Phaser, 760x280 in mustard, and Flanger, 680x280 in steel blue: the
response from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, and under it a lane of the turn or the
delay over time. The response is drawn where the light is, so the
notches swirl and the comb jets. A comb finer than a column fills it.
- The light loops over 1, 2, 4 or 8 s, two LFO swings at least, for a
Flanger as long as its sweep takes to reach 20 ms. The face only
keeps the editor drawing while something swings and is heard.
- A Rate lamp beside each name goes from dark to lit with the swing.
- Nothing is listened to. The pictures use the worklets' own numbers:
lfoAt, vibratoSpeedUp (now exported from lfo.ts), the allpass chain
with its feedback, and the comb, reckoned at 48 kHz.
- Phaser and Flanger take 4 preset columns. Phased Pad was looked at
in a picture, nothing overlaps.
- Exported from nodes.ts: LFO_SHAPE, lfoShapeOf, TREMOLO_ROWS,
VIBRATO_ROWS, PHASER_STAGE_ROW and phaserStagesOf. FLANGER_MAX_MS is
exported from phaser.ts.
Decided here, as the request left the look open:
- A notch counts where the response falls below -3 dB, not some dB
under the loudest point. Feedback rings peaks far above 0 dB, and the
first rule counted 7 notches on a Phaser of 12 stages.
- Rate and Depth of Tremolo and Vibrato are big knobs, Wet is small.
Tests:
Unit modulation-view (stein2): 22 tests, new. Phaser and Flanger
give the dB of their worklets on a sine within 0.005 dB, the
Tremolo its samples, the Vibrato the pitch it reads at.
Counter-check: with the sign of the Phaser's feedback flipped in one
place, exactly the worklet test fails.
e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 142 checks, 4 new. Each device has its
size, its ports outside, a light that runs by itself, and a button
and a knob as one undo step each. Picking 8 stages on the Phaser
draws 4 notches.
Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 291 files, 4467 tests.

Show a Limiter node as a device that holds what it took away (#397)
A Limiter only said what it does in rows of numbers. How much it took away, and when, could not be seen at all, and a short sound is over before any needle could show it. Now the node is a device of its own size, and its screen catches the reduction from the moment a sound starts and holds it once the sound ends. - LimiterPanel draws a 720x280 plate of brushed brick. The threshold knob is large, ceiling and release are small beside it, auto-gain is a lever. A LIMIT lamp lights while it takes something away. - The screen hangs the reduction down from the top, 0 to 24 dB by the square root like the Compressor's meter. The level coming in runs along the bottom, orange above the limit. Time runs from the start of the sound over 1, 2, 4 or 8 s, and a longer sound rolls. - ReductionCapture in limiterView holds the capture after 0.4 s of silence, without the silence, until the next sound. It writes the most taken away and when, and NOW or LASTED on the right. - The Limiter is tapped now, like the Compressor. The face reads the loudest sample since the last frame on both sides. - SpectrumTaps.levels takes a lateBy. The side in front is read 5 ms earlier, so a peak going in is met by what it became. - limiterReduction leaves the auto-gain out and solves Wet's blend for the limited part. Less than 0.2 dB counts as none. - A capture is also held when the node leaves the picture. Changing a knob or the lever leaves it as it is. - Hook __gm.limiter.panel(id) for the sound FX and instrument graphs. Decided myself: - The capture stays held until the next sound, not for a fixed time. - The screen has no wet knob, as the Compressor's has none. - The Limiter's two taps cost two gains of 1 per voice. The analysers only exist while the node is in the picture. Measured on stein2: the seeded blip at -4.4 dBFS against -12 dB showed 7.56 dB. Three hits at 0, -8 and -2 dBFS showed 11.9 dB at the first. In e2e 34 on melektaus-atx, -10.44 dBFS in against -20 dB showed 9.56 dB, the difference to the hundredth. Tests: - Unit: limiter-view 13 tests (new), spectrum 6 (1 new), soundfx 67 with the Limiter's taps. - Counter-test: without Wet's share in the formula the blend test fails. - e2e 34: ALL PASSED, 138 checks (1 new). - Gate: CHECK EXIT 0, 290 files, 4445 tests.

Show a Saturation node as a device that glows with its drive (#396)
A Saturation in the graph was a stack of rows. The user wanted a device of its own style and size, like the Delay and the Reverb, that shows warmth and heat the harder the sound is driven. - The node is a copper plate of 720x280 with a button per type, the auto-gain lever, a big drive knob and small knobs for tone, output and wet. Each change is one undo step, wired numbers lock their knob. - The screen draws a sine at -12 dBFS, the level auto-gain is reckoned at, as a grey ghost. Over it is the wave that comes out: bent by the type, its DC taken out, auto-gain and output after it, blended by wet. Under it stand the auto-gain and the peak. - The heat is the drive over 48 dB, as far as wet lets it be heard. The wave goes from cold steel through ember red to white, a glow rises from below and flickers, and embers fly up from about 8 dB on. A lamp beside the name glows with it. - The node keeps the editor drawing only while there is heat. Without drive it draws nothing, unlike the Delay, which always animates. - The Reverb's private type button is now PickButton with its own colours, and the Saturation's type buttons use it as well. - No instrument preset uses a Saturation, so no preset needs more columns. Tests: - Unit saturation-view: 14 new tests. - Counter-check: without taking out the DC, exactly the DC test fails. - e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 137 checks, one new for type, lever and drive with undo. - Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 289 files, 4431 tests.

Replace the 5-Band-EQ with the Parametric EQ and remove it (#395)
The Parametric EQ does all the 5-Band-EQ did and more, so the editor keeps only one EQ. The old node was used in one project only, with nothing linked to its band inputs. - "Garden of Sacrifices" was converted once on the project file, not by a load migration (#137). Its 5 nodes are Parametric EQs now with the same filters: low shelf 80 Hz, peaks at 250 Hz, 1 kHz and 4 kHz with Q 1, high shelf 12 kHz. A band at 0 became no band. - Two values below -24 dB were held to -24, as the Parametric EQ goes no further. Both are in the asset "Delay" (high -60, low -36). The user will rework them by ear. - The write went through the API's own Store (lock, revision 20181 to 20182), so a tab with the old revision gets a 409 instead of overwriting it. - Removed with the node: its stage kind "filter" and the type FxFilter, which nothing else made, and the player's branch for it. A Pan is now the last branch of fxNodes, a Flanger that of stagesOf. - Tests that took the 5-Band-EQ as "some effect" use the Pan or the Parametric EQ now. The test for a parameter feeding a band now feeds the cutoff of a Filter, which had no such test yet. - A project that still names the type, such as an old snapshot of "Garden of Sacrifices", loads without those nodes. Unknown types were always left out on load. Tests: - Unit (stein2): soundfx 67, instrument 36, envelope 13, sound-library 127, all green - Counter-check: with the cutoff not taken from the parameter, only the new Filter test goes red - The converted project loads and compiles: Delay, Vocals and Drums play their bands (3+1, 4 and 5) - e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 136 checks, the palette check now looks for the Parametric EQ - Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 288 files, 4417 tests Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Show a Delay node as a device with its echoes over time (#393)
After the Chip, the Envelope, the Reverb and the one-knob devices, the Delay is drawn as a device of its own size too. Its screen shows what time, feedback, damping, wet and ping-pong make of a sound, and a light runs over the echoes at the beat they come at. - DelayPanel: a 680x280 plate in the Compressor's brushed aluminium, now exported as ALUMINIUM. A screen, levers for Sync and Ping-pong, knobs for Time, Feedback, Damping and Wet, and an Echo lamp. - The screen draws the sound as a white bar and each echo as a bar one step later. A bar is as tall as the echo is loud, evenly in dB to -60. It turns from warm white to rust as the damping takes the highs. With ping-pong the bars alternate above and below, the first left. - At most 24 bars are drawn, and the screen says how many more are heard. Under it stand the step and the end of the tail, above it where the highs of the first echo end. - The running light: DelayFace.tick returns true while the node is in the picture, so the editor keeps drawing, as for the Particles tab. The light goes round the span in real time, a bar glows as it is passed, and the lamp blinks with every echo but not with the sound. - On beats the screen counts at 120 BPM, as the tempo of the voice is not known in the graph. The time knob then names the note, dotted and triplet ones included. In seconds, 2 s and up reads "2 s max". - delayView holds the rules apart from the drawing: layout, tapers, echoTrain, echoCutoff for k rounds of the Butterworth low-pass, sweepAt and the texts. At wet 0 the rest is drawn faint. - delayEchoes in the core counts the echoes heard. The tail of a voice and the screen use it both. DELAY_ROWS, DELAY_SYNC and PING_PONG are exported. - Knob.reformat writes the number anew when its format changes, here when Sync switches between seconds and beats. - The test hook __gm.delay.panel returns knobs, levers, idle settings, the echoes drawn, the texts and where the light is. - Instrument presets give the Delay 4 columns. Echo Lead and Bell use one. In the picture of Echo Lead nothing overlaps. Found on the way: a node with a face draws no setting rows. The e2e check of a bypassed Delay (#354) read "Bypass: true" from them. It now checks the faded node and the stages heard, as before. Tests: - Unit delay-view: 17 tests, new. Counter-check: the first ping-pong echo on the right turns the side test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): 136 checks, 1 new. - Gate (melektaus-atx): 288 files, 4416 tests. - Pictures looked at: default, ping-pong, beats with damping, 83 echoes at 50 ms, wet 0, and the preset Echo Lead.

Show a Pan node as a one-knob device in cyan (#392)
After the Gain, the Pitch and the Mix, the Pan is the next node that is just one number. It now gets the same device in the graph instead of a row for its pan. - PAN_DEVICE: the Gain's 160x160 plate in cyan with one bipolar knob for Pan. The middle stands straight up, and the turn goes evenly to L and R, which are engraved at its ends like A and B on the Mix. - PAN_TAPER in hardwareView is 1, so left and right are heard alike. Device and unit test read the same constant. - PAN_ROW is exported from the core, so the knob has the node's range. - A linked Pan greys the knob, as for the Gain. - The test hook __gm.pan.panel returns the same shape as the Gain's. - No instrument preset uses a Pan, so no preset columns change. Tests: - Unit hardware-view: 17 tests, 2 new (the turn, and L and R inside the plate and clear of the screws). Counter-check: PAN_TAPER 2 turns the turn test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): 135 checks, 1 new. - Gate (melektaus-atx): 287 files, 4399 tests. - Pictures looked at: Gain, Pitch, Mix and Pan in a row, Pan at -0.35.

Show Pitch and Mix nodes as one-knob devices in green and blue (#390)
The Gain has been a small device with one big knob since #384. The Pitch and the Mix are just as much a single number, so they now look and work the same way. The Mix also gets a lever for its curve, which until now was only a row in the inspector. - GainPanel and GainFace become KnobPanel and KnobFace. Each node is described by a KnobDevice: its plate, its row, how the knob turns, and an optional lever. The Gain looks as before. - Pitch: a green 160x160 plate with a bipolar knob for Semitones. 0 stands straight up and taper 2 puts an octave at 43 % of each half, so small steps near 0 are easy and the full +-64 is still there. - Mix: a blue 180x200 plate, the lever on top and the knob below. The knob has A and B engraved at the ends of its turn. The lever reads "crossfade" down and "both at center" up with its lamp lit. A flip is one undo step. - A wired Semitones or Mix greys the knob, as for the Gain. - The instrument presets give Pitch and Mix two columns. In the graph they are 281 and 261 units wide, more than one column of 240. - The test hooks __gm.pitch.panel and __gm.mix.panel return the same shape as __gm.gain.panel, plus the lever. Tests: - Unit hardware-view: 15 tests, 3 new (Pitch turn, lever above the knob and ends on the Mix plate). Counter-check: taper 1 turns the Pitch test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): 134 checks, 1 new. - Gate (melektaus-atx, together with #391): 287 files, 4397 tests. - Pictures looked at: Gain, Pitch and Mix in a row, Pitch at -24.5, Mix with both curves, the Bell preset without overlaps.

Show a Reverb node as a device with a round screen of its tail (#389)
The Compressor, the Gain, the Chip and the Envelope are devices in the graph. The Reverb was still a list of rows, and how long and how dark its tail rings was left to the numbers. - The node is a plate of 640x280 in pale lavender. Its inputs are on the left, its output on the right. - A round screen draws the tail as rings out from the sound. A ring's radius is its time, as the root of its seconds, on one scale up to 10.5 s for every Reverb. So a Room is a small disc and a Cave fills two thirds. - A ring is as bright as the tail is loud there, evenly in dB. Its colour is how much of the highs is left, from ice to violet, with the cut-off of the impulse response (reverbCutoff, now shared). - The pre-delay is a dark gap round the dot, a dashed ring marks -60 dB. Seeded dots stand for the reflections. Wet fades the tail against the dot. - A type of Sound draws the peaks of its sound from the library, each against its loudest. It says LOADING until they are there. - A button for each type, a list of the sounds and four chrome knobs: Decay, Damping, Pre-delay and Wet. - A knob the type does not take is greyed but turns. It goes over to Custom with the type's numbers, as one undo step. Picking a sound makes the type Sound, also one step. - NodeParamDrag can write several settings as one drag for that. - Test hook __gm.reverb.panel(nodeId), for the sound FX and the instrument graph. Tests: - Unit reverb-view: 10 new tests for the plate, the knob turn, the numbers per type, the scale, the tail and the texts. A screen that ignores damping turns the highs test red. - e2e 34 (atx): 1 new check (device between its ports, decay knob of a Hall goes to Custom as one undo step, Cave button, a sound from the list makes it Sound and draws that sound). - Probe pictures on stein2: Room, Hall, Cave, Plate, Custom with damping 1 and pre-delay 0.3 s, Sound. - Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 287 files, 4393 tests.

Show a Chip node as a device with its wave and its pitch (#386)
The Chip had eleven numbers in rows and nothing that showed what they do to a note. Its node is now a device of one size like the Compressor's, and two screens draw the wave and the pitch from the settings, worked right in the instrument graph. - ChipPanel is 840x280 in the warm grey of a handheld console. A button per wave, the "follow note" lever and a chrome knob per number, grouped Oscillator, Slide, Vibrato, Arpeggio and Repeat. - The wave screen draws two periods as loud as the Chip plays them, a square at its duty. toneValue and periodicSteps come out of chip.ts, so the screen and the worklet share one formula. - The pitch screen draws what slide, delta slide, vibrato, arpeggio and repeat make of the pitch over a note. It ends where the note falls below "min frequency" and starts from A4 while the Chip follows the note. - Idle settings are faded, wired ones greyed and locked, as the rows were. Every change is one undo step. - Knobs take a bipolar range: 0 straight up, the taper bends each half. Slide, delta slide, duty sweep and arpeggio use it. - The Compressor's auto-gain lever is now a Lever with a name of its own, which the Chip uses for "follow note". - Presets give a Chip five columns, as a Filter has four since #385. Found on the way: - With the Chip this wide the Laser preset is about 3060 units. In a 1280 px window Fit stops at the least zoom of 0.25 and cuts the Notes node off. The zoom limit is left as it is. Tests: - Unit: chip-view (9 new), knob (1 new), chip, chip-presets and hardware-view, 53 green - e2e 34 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 131 checks (1 new). The first run was red on the check itself: a Laser's "min frequency" can lie above A4, and the screen then rightly says the note ends at once. - Gate on melektaus-atx: CHECK EXIT 0, 285 files, 4377 tests - Counter-check: a square drawn with its duty mirrored turns the wave test red Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Edit a Filter in its node and resize EQ and Filter nodes (#385)
A Filter sounds like one band of the Parametric EQ, but it keeps what the EQ cannot: linked numbers, the all-pass and +-40 dB. So it stays a node of its own and gets the EQ's editor with itself as the one band. The editors also stop running out of their room: what does not fit is left out instead of being cut. - The curve of the EQ is now BandCurve with a host the EQ and the Filter both fill. CurvePanel holds what their panels share. - FilterPanel shows the Filter as one band. A drag of its handle sets frequency and gain as one undo step. A number fed by a link is greyed out and the drag leaves it alone. - A double-click on the Filter's title opens the same in a tab of its own. Delete there does nothing, the node stays. - The Filter is tapped like the EQ, so its node and its tab draw the spectrum of what passes it. A tap is two gain nodes per voice, the analysers are made only while someone listens. - EqFace and FilterFace are one CurveFace now, given the panel. - EQ and Filter nodes have a corner to resize them, drawn like the floating window's. The size is saved on the node as `size`, each drag is one undo step, the least is 240 x 120. - In the node the help line is gone. The row of numbers comes in only once the curve keeps 120 px of height. A group of the row that does not fit is not drawn, the one on the right first. - A frequency or dB label that would run into the one before it is left out. - The all-pass is drawn flat. The curve's maths takes every shape a Filter has. Found on the way: - The instrument presets set nodes 240 apart. A Filter with its editor is about 700 wide and covered the Bitcrusher, so a Filter now takes four columns. Tests: - Unit: 8 new (filter band, resize command and save, fitting rules), stage lists with a Filter now hold its taps - e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 130 checks (4 new) - Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 284 files, 4367 tests Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Show a Gain node as an orange device with one knob (#384)
A Gain node now draws a small device in the graph, as the Compressor does since #380: the brushed plate in orange, 160x220 graph units, with one chrome knob between its inputs and its output. - GainPanel and GainFace join the node faces. The knob drags, resets on a double-click and keeps the wheel for the graph (#383). Each turn is one undo step, a linked Gain (dB) greys it. - The knob turns with a taper of 0.26, so 0 dB stands straight up and the range below -24 dB takes a fifth of the turn. - drawPlate, engrave and the brushed look move out of CompressorPanel so both devices share them. The Knob takes an arc colour, because the orange arc vanished on the orange plate. - No meter and no tap. Gain sits in every voice of an instrument, and a tap would add two audio nodes to each note for a display nobody asked for. Found on the way: - Knob.dialGlobal added half the dial unscaled. In a zoomed graph it pointed beside the dial. The Compressor's e2e only hit by luck. Tests: - Unit: 2 new for the Gain plate and its taper. - e2e 34 on atx: ALL PASSED, 126 checks (1 new). - Gate on atx: CHECK EXIT 0, 283 files, 4359 tests.

Edit a Parametric EQ in its node, let the wheel only zoom graphs (#381)
The small curve below the EQ node's rows (#375) only showed the bands. Like the Compressor since #380, the node now shows the editor of its tab between its inputs and its output, and is worked right there. A double-click on the node still opens the same editor in a tab. Two wishes for the nodes with a panel came on top and share the same files, so they are in this commit as well: the numbers below the Compressor's knobs read as plain labels (#382), and the wheel over a node zooms the graph instead of turning a value (#383). #381, the EQ in its node: - EqPanel holds the curve, the band's numbers and the help line, taken out of EqEditor. The tab puts its one panel under a header, each EQ node has a panel of its own at 720 x 360 (EqFace). - A press on the curve neither picks nor moves the node. A double-click on the curve adds a band, one on the title or the edge opens the tab. - In the node a press on the Type or Slope button stays with the button, so the node is not picked or moved. - The spectrum runs in the node while it is in the picture. The tab lets go of the tap once, like the Compressor's, and Editor.tick lets every unseen tab and graph go before any seen one listens. - The count of bands moved from the tab's header into the band row, so the node shows it as well. - The node picture of #375 is gone with its only user: NodePicture, EQ_PICTURE and NodeView's drawing of it. #382, the numbers below the Compressor's knobs in its node: - A Knob with typed: false shows its number as a centred Label without a box, in the panel's ink. The ratio reads 4:1 (ratioText). - The label is as high as its text and sits up in the dial's open bottom, right under the ends of the scale. - Label takes a colour of its own. #383, the wheel in a graph: - GraphCanvas takes the wheel on the way down and stops it there. It zooms over a node too, and no knob or curve in a node sees it. - The tabs keep their wheel: a knob's step, a band's Q and the zoom of the EQ's dB. Found on the way: - A Menu opened below a button in the zoomed graph would have been placed by the button's own height. openBelow now takes the bottom edge as drawn. - The band row did not lay out its labels after a text change when its own size stayed. In the tab a later resize hid it, in the node "Band 1" and the count were missing. The row now lays out itself. - Handle and point positions for the checks were unscaled. They now go through toGlobal and hold at the graph's zoom. Tests: - Unit parametric-eq: 16 tests. The #375 tests now check eqCurvePoints and eqRangeOf directly. compressor-view: ratioText. - e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 125 checks (3 new: the EQ panel and its ports, editing in the node, the spectrum in the node with the tab open). The Compressor node's check reads its numbers as labels and 8:1. Both node checks now expect the wheel to zoom the graph and leave the ratio, the Q and the dB zoom alone. - The unseen-tab check now leaves for the Scene tab, since the node in the graph listens to the same tap. - Counter-check: the tab letting go of the tap every unseen frame stalls the node's spectrum with the tab open (1 frame against 22, probe on stein2). - Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 283 files, 4357 tests.

Show a Compressor's panel in its node, its tab on a double-click (#380)
The panel of #379 opened in a window of its own and replaced the tab. The user wanted the device in the graph instead, and the tab of #378 back on a double-click. The switch Hardware look goes again. - A node can show a face instead of its rows (`NodeFace`). Its inputs sit on the left of it and its outputs on the right, in the middle of the height. Each side is as wide as its longest port name. - A Compressor node shows the panel at full size, 820x280 graph units. Its settings and numbers are not listed as rows, the panel has them. - The knobs and the lever work in the node. A drag, a notch of the wheel and a double-click are one undo step each. A press on them neither picks nor moves the node, and the wheel does not zoom the graph. The number below a knob is only shown, typing stays in the tab and the inspector. - The meter and the LEDs run while the node is in the picture of a sound FX or instrument graph that is seen. Out of the picture, folded or hidden, the node lets go of its taps. - The window of one size, `fixedSize`, `refit`, `keptSize` and the rule that kept a Compressor out of the tab row are gone again. - A knob's drag as one undo step lives in `nodeParamDrag.ts` now, for the tab and the node. The numbers of a node and what auto-gain says moved to `compressorView.ts`. Found and fixed on the way: - The tab and the node listen to the same taps. The tab let go of them on every frame it was not seen, so the node's meter stood still while the tab was open. Now the tab lets go once, and in a frame everything unseen lets go before anything seen listens. Tests: - Unit: compressor-view (2 new), documents (the test of `keptSize` is gone with it) - e2e 34 (stein2, melektaus-atx was off): ALL PASSED, 122 checks. The four checks of #379 are now four of the node: ports beside the panel, knobs and lever in the node, the needle when played (21.7 dB with the tab open), and the double-click opening the tab. - Gate (stein2): CHECK EXIT 0, 283 files, 4356 tests - Counter-checks: an old auto-gain number read as off turns exactly its unit test red. A tab that lets go on every frame leaves the node's needle at 0 dB and no LED lit (probe on stein2). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Open a Compressor as a device in a window of one size (#379)
The tab from #378 shows a Compressor as an editor. The user wanted it to look like a device as well, after a brushed aluminium plug-in, with a meter of the gain reduction instead of the pictures. The tab stays and is switched to per node. - Hardware look is a switch under Settings, on by default for new and existing Compressors. Only the editor reads it. - The panel is 820x280 px and opens straight in a window of that size. The window has no sizing corner and no Dock. A pane says so through `fixedSize`, and `keptSize` keeps the window's middle when it changes to that size. - A Compressor in this look never sits in the tab row. Opening one floats it, and switching the look on moves its tab into the window. - The panel has chrome knobs (threshold and makeup large), a meter with a needle that moves like a VU's, an LCD with the name and the reading, a lever with a lamp for auto-gain, and LEDs for the level going out. Everything is drawn in code. - The Knob takes a size and a chrome look, and leaves out its caption when it has no name, so the panel engraves its own. - `autoGainOn` is now `switchOn`, because the new switch reads the same way. - Where parts sit, the meter's scale, the needle's speed, the LEDs and the plate's grain are in `hardwareView.ts`, apart from the drawing. Decided myself: - The meter's scale runs by the square root, so the first dB is about as wide as the last nine. It is red from 10 dB on. - The LEDs light one every 3 dB from -39 to 0 dB and fall by 20 dB a second. - Switching the look changes the graph's fingerprint, like any other setting of a node. The sound FX is built again once. Findings, fixed on the way: - Pixi's `arc` goes on from the last point of the path. The meter's scale had a line from the corner of the face until each arc got a `moveTo` to its own start. - A text put into a Graphics makes Pixi warn that only Containers take children. The LCD is a Container now. - The first browser check read the needle at one moment and missed the short sound. The panel keeps the most its needle and LEDs showed. Tests: - Unit: hardware-view (10 new), documents (1 new) - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 122 checks (4 new). Played, the needle reached 20.9 dB and 5 LEDs lit. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 283 files, 4355 tests (11 new) - Counter-checks: a window that keeps its corner instead of its middle, and a linear meter scale, each turn exactly their test red.

Fit the Compressor's tab to any size, make auto-gain a switch (#378)
Two things came up on the new tab. Floated and sized down, it spilled its knobs out of its window, and sized up it left the window empty. Auto-gain lifted far too much: it brought 0 dB back to 0 dB, which at -40 dB, 4:1 and knee 6 is +28.1 dB, so a sound at -24 dB came out at -6 dB. And as a knob from 0 to 1 it blended between makeup and auto-gain, so at 1 the makeup knob did nothing. Layout: - The knobs stay on the bottom line, centred, with the help line above them. - The levels fill the height left above. The curve is a square at their right, centred up and down. It grows with the tab from 180 to 360 px and takes no more than 40 % of its width (picturesLayout). - A floated window cannot be sized below what its pane needs. A pane says so in its minWidth and minHeight, and the Compressor's is every knob and the smallest pictures. Other panes keep 320 x 200. - A pane put into an open window that is too small grows the window. Auto-gain, as decided in #378: - A Compressor's auto-gain gives back what it takes from a sound at -18 dB, so that one comes out as loud as it went in. At the numbers above that is +14.6 dB. - Auto-gain is a switch on the Compressor, the Limiter and the Saturation alike, a setting and no longer an input. The makeup or output is added on top of it instead of being blended with it. - A project from before reads a number as on above 0. Nodes never set keep their defaults: off on the Compressor, on on the other two. - The tab shows the switch at the right of the knobs, with the dB it gives below it. With it on, the curve has a line at -18 dB from the curve up to the diagonal. - Every level reading keeps the gain of its time. Before, the whole picture was read by the current makeup, so after a change the tinting of the last seconds was wrong or missing. Findings: - My first e2e run of the layout clicked Dock where it was before the window was sized up, so the window stayed open and the next check went red. The check reads the button again. Tests: - Gate (melektaus-atx): 282 files, 4344 tests (6 new) - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 118 checks (2 new) - Offline in Chrome: a sine at -18 dB through -24 dB and 4:1 came out at -17.92 dB with auto-gain on and -22.42 dB with it off. - Counter-checks: the curve set at the top instead of the middle, and every reading read at a gain of 0, each fail exactly their test. - Looked at the window in screenshots: at its least every knob and the switch show. At 1280 x 797 the levels fill the height, the curve is centred at the right and the knobs are at the bottom. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Edit a Compressor in a tab of its own, with knobs and levels (#378)
A Compressor had only its number rows in the node. Its numbers are
easier to set by feel on a dial, and what it does is easier to judge
when the level going in and the level going out are seen side by side.
- Knob is a new widget in the toolkit: a slider bent into a circle,
its name above and a number field below. A drag up or down turns
it, Shift a tenth as far, a notch of the wheel a fiftieth of the
turn, a double-click sets the default, the number takes a typed
value. A taper gives the low end more of the turn.
- The Compressor's tab opens on a double-click, one per node, like
the Parametric EQ's. It has a knob for each of the seven numbers,
greyed while its input is linked.
- Its curve shows level in to level out from -60 to 0 dB. The point
where it bends sets the threshold, the end of the curve sets the
ratio that ends there.
- Its levels show the last 4 s on both sides of the node. Where it
takes more than 0.5 dB away, the stretch below the level coming in
is tinted. The makeup is left out of that.
- The Compressor is tapped like the EQ. SpectrumTaps listens to more
than one node at once and reads the loudest sample of the last
25 ms on each side.
- The node tabs share one map in the editor (nodeTabs), so a third
kind needs no new plumbing.

- CI task 614 for

Zoom the Parametric EQ's dB with the wheel, saved on its node (#376)
Close moves of a few dB were hard to set and to see on a curve that always spans -24 to +24 dB. The wheel on free space now zooms the dB the curve shows, and the node's small curve shows the same range. - The range is one of ±3, ±6, ±12, ±24 and ±48 dB, always the same either side of 0. Up zooms in. - It is saved on the node as `range`, so it is back after loading. Like the game scale (#226) it is no undo step. EditorState gets `setNodeView` for such a setting of a node. - The lines across the curve follow the range: every 1, 2, 3, 6 or 12 dB. A handle whose gain lies beyond the range stays on the edge, in sight and in reach. - The wheel over a handle still turns the band's Q. It no longer does so anywhere while a band is picked: after opening, a band nearly always is, and the zoom would be out of reach. - `EqArea` carries the range, so the tab and the node map dB alike. The spectrum keeps its own scale. Tests: - Unit parametric-eq: 16 green, 5 new (range in compile and save, node picture, wheel steps, grid lines, handle on the edge) - Counter-check: the node's picture without the saved range turns the new picture test red - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 99 checks, 1 new - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 275 files, 4252 tests Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Draw the EQ's curve in its node and a spectrum behind it (#375, #374)
Both were asked for in #367 "for later". The node of a Parametric EQ now shows its curve in small, and its tab shows what passes the node while it is seen. #375, the curve in the node: - NodeDef has an optional `picture`: a height, and shapes made from the settings as plain point lists (guide, area, line). It is general, the Parametric EQ is its first user. - NodeView draws it in a box below the rows, again only when the box or the settings change. A drag in the EQ tab changes them, so the node follows it live. - Without a band the box stays, flat on its 0 dB line, so the node does not grow at the first band. - The axes of the curve, `eqCurvePoints` and `fillShapes` move from editor/soundfx/eqView to core/soundfx/parametricEq. Tab and node draw the sum from the same function. #374, the spectrum: - A node marked `tapped` gets a `tap` stage in front of its own stages and one behind them when compiled, in a sound FX and in an instrument alike. Its id is asset and node, since a copied asset keeps its node ids. - A tap is a gain of 1. SpectrumTaps (new, viewport/spectrum.ts) holds the tap of every voice and bus while it plays. - While the EQ tab is seen, in the tab row or in a window, the taps of that node feed one analyser per side (8192 points). Nothing is made before a tap of the node plays, so no AudioContext is opened early. - The tab draws both behind the curve, on a scale of 0 to -96 dBFS: the sound coming in faint and grey, the sound going on in the colour of a sound port. The analyser smooths it, and once the sound has gone the sum still hands it silence, so it falls away. - Once the tab is not seen, Editor.tick lets the analysers go, like the meters of the Song tab. - A tap does nothing to the sound, so `stats().last.stages` leaves it out, and a bypassed EQ keeps its taps. Decided on my own: - Every sound passing the node counts: Play of the sound FX tab, an instrument's keys, a song, a run. The issue proposed that. - The spectrum has no labels of its own. Its scale is in the wiki. Tests: Gate (melektaus-atx) 275 files, 4247 tests (11 new), EXIT 0 e2e 34 (melektaus-atx) ALL PASSED, 98 checks (2 new), twice Counter-checks, each put back by copy and compared with cmp: - The node's curve drawn without its bands: 2 unit tests fail. - The spectrum without the loudest bin between two points: 1 fails. - SpectrumTaps.stop leaving the taps linked: 1 fails. - Taps that never feed the analyser: e2e 34 fails in exactly the spectrum check (frames 0). Run in the container only. The screenshots of the second run were looked at: the blip as one peak behind the curve, and the dip at 4 kHz in the node.

Shape a sound with a Parametric EQ and its own curve editor (#367)
A sound FX or an instrument had a 5-Band-EQ with fixed bands and a Filter with one band. The Parametric EQ holds up to ten bands of any type, and a double-click on the node opens an editor that draws the curve they make together. - The bands are a list on the node (`bands`): type, frequency, gain, Q and slope. A hand-edited project is held to the editor's ranges and to ten bands. - Each band compiles to the existing `pass` stage, so the audio core is unchanged. A peak or a shelf at 0 dB is left out. - The curve is worked out in `parametricEq.ts` with the biquad formulas of the Web Audio spec, so the editor draws what is heard. - The editor is a window that floats over the editor without a backdrop, so the tab's Play stays usable. A double-click adds a peak, a drag moves a band, the wheel turns its Q, a right-click removes it. Fields below the curve set the picked band. It opens in the middle of the screen and moves by its title bar. - A drag or a scrub writes the node as a preview and makes one undo step on release. The panels hear of the preview once a frame, and the window lays itself out only when one of its texts changes. - The area under the curve is filled as one shape for each side of 0 dB. As a single shape it crossed itself and came apart. - The curve works out each band's coefficients once and adds the sum up from the bands. A drag took 295 ms of script time in a profile before and 64 ms after. Decided on my own: - Bands are added by a double-click, so a single click can let go of the picked band without adding one. - The cuts are labelled "Low cut" and "High cut" as in an EQ, not "High-pass" and "Low-pass" as on the Filter. - The bands have no input, so no parameter or Envelope moves them. Tests: - Unit parametric-eq (new) and soundfx: 69 green. Counter-probe with no stages emitted: the compile test red. Counter-probe with one fill shape: the fill test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 96 checks (3 new). - Counter-probe e2e: no stages emitted, the playing check red. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 274 files, 4230 tests.

Give every sound FX effect a Bypass and a Wet (#354)
A node could only be taken out of a sound FX by unplugging it, and only six of them could be blended with the sound they get. Every effect now has both, in the sound FX graph and in the instrument graph alike. The Mix, the Input and the Output have neither. - Bypass is a checkbox setting. A bypassed node is left out when the graph is compiled, so it costs nothing and holds nothing back. The graph draws it faded, and its body says "Bypass: true". - Wet is a number input like the others. It can be a parameter, be moved by Set sound FX parameters and, where the node allows it for its other numbers, follow an Envelope. - A blend is a stage of its own (`wet`) around what the node adds. The sound as it came in is held back as far as the node is late, so a Compressor, a Limiter or a Vibrato do not comb it out. - The six nodes that had a Mix keep their key `mix` and only call it Wet. Saved values, parameters and edges stay as they were. - The Delay crossfades now: the sound alone at 0, the sound and its echoes in full at 0.5, the echoes alone at 1. Before, the sound was always in full and `mix` was the echoes. - The Pitch takes its semitones by Wet instead of blending, through a share `times` on the amount that an instrument binds as well. Findings: - A Delay saved before this sounds different. It sounds the same at half its old value. The two chip presets with a Delay (Echo Lead, Bell) are halved to keep their sound. - Project cbbf160bb7e8 has two Delays (mix 1 and 0.5). They are left as they are. Tests: - Unit: soundfx 65 (8 new), sound-library 107 (3 new), instrument 35 (1 new), envelope 13. Two delay tests and the filter ports test follow the new numbers. - Counter-checks: 8, each turns its test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 83 checks (2 new). The ping-pong check at wet 0.25 measures what it did at mix 0.5. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 268 files, 4154 tests. - After the gate the derived ports of a blend are asked for once instead of twice: typecheck, lint and the three unit files green again (113 tests).

Put a sound in a room, a hall or a cave with a Reverb node (#328)
A sound FX had no space around it. The Reverb node folds the sound with an impulse response: one it makes itself, or a sound asset as the answer of a real space. It works on a voice and on a bus. - Type: Room, Hall, Cave and Plate have fixed numbers. Custom shows Decay (up to 10 s), Damping and Pre-delay. Sound shows the pick of a sound asset and Pre-delay. The rows are derived ports, the sound pick an idle param, so they only appear for their type. - The made impulse response is seeded noise per side, 60 dB down at Decay, through a low-pass closing from 20 kHz toward 500 Hz as far as Damping says. It is made once per rate, decay and damping, the last 16 are kept. - A sound as impulse response: the sound FX compilers now get the project, so a node can turn a sound asset into its file. The build key holds that file, so a cut or swapped sound builds again. The instrument compiler does the same for a Reverb inside an instrument. - The library loads that file with the voice, a sequence or before a bus builds its chain. A missing file leaves the reverb silent. - Mix blends dry and reverb and is the only number that moves while the sound plays, as the issue said. The voice rings for pre-delay plus decay, or as long as its sound. - The open point from #325 about sends on project buses is #351, not part of this. Tests: - Unit reverb (new) 4, soundfx 57 (4 new), sound-library 104 (2 new), green. - Counter-checks, each turns one test red: the impulse file not loaded with the voice, the tail without the length of the sound. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 81 checks (1 new). Chrome offline: silent during the pre-delay, 35.9 dB fall over 0.6 s of a 1 s decay (36 expected), the dry half at 0.25 for mix 0.5. A sound with one sample at 0.2 s gives the impulse back 0.25 s later and nowhere else. - Gate (melektaus-atx) over the end of this series #318 to #328: CHECK EXIT 0, 267 files, 4134 tests.

Swing the volume or the pitch with Tremolo and Vibrato (#320)
Alarms, sirens and wobbly retro sounds need a volume or a pitch that swings. Two new nodes do that, on a voice and on a bus alike. - Tremolo: Rate (0 to 20 Hz), Depth (0 to 100 %), Shape (Sine, Triangle, Square, Saw). The volume swings between full and 1 - depth. - Vibrato: Rate (0.5 to 20 Hz), Depth (0 to 4 semitones), Shape. The shape is the curve of the pitch, a Square jumps between two pitches. - As the issue decided: two nodes, phase 0 on the first sample of the voice, no fade-in time. Both run on the FX worklet, the classes are in lfo.ts and tested in Node. - Deviation from the issue text, as in the plan: the Vibrato is a delay that swings, not playbackRate. A bus has no playbackRate, and the sound keeps its length. - The delay swings around a center taken from the start values. The center counts as the latency of the node, so a voice starts that much earlier and a Mix and a bus make up for it. - Known limit, in the node text and the wiki: a depth turned up or a rate turned down after the start asks for a delay below 0. The lower half of the swing then flattens. Finding: the first e2e run was red at the edge of a window. The phase is summed up, so the square flips one sample later than 2400 steps of 10/48000 suggest. The check keeps 10 samples away from the edges. Tests: - Unit lfo (new) 5, soundfx 53 (2 new), sound-library 102 (1 new), green. - Counter-checks, each turns one test red: the swing turned over (up and down swapped), the start time not passed to the worklet. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 80 checks (1 new). Chrome offline: Tremolo square silent before its voice, then 0.5 and 0 for 50 ms each. Vibrato square at 5 Hz, 1 semitone: 1059.5 Hz and 940.5 Hz. - The gate runs once on the last commit of this series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Warm up or distort a sound with a Saturation node (#323)
A sound FX had no way to bend a sound. The Saturation node pushes it into a curve, from warmth to a hard distortion, on a voice or a bus. - Eight types, each a fixed curve made once: Soft (tanh), Cubic, Hard clip, Tube, Fuzz, Foldback, Sine fold and Rectify. The issue asked for as many as useful. - Drive (0 to 48 dB) is a gain in front of the curve. The curve spans 256 times full scale, so the drive glides like any gain. - Output and Auto-gain blend as on the Compressor. Auto-gain brings a sine at -12 dBFS back to the RMS it came in with. - Tone is a low-pass after the curve, 1 kHz at 0 to 20 kHz at 1, as recommended in the plan. A 10 Hz high-pass takes out the DC the lopsided types make. - Mix blends with the dry sound. The 4x oversampling is 192 samples late in Chrome, so the dry way is held back as far. The node counts as late by that much for voices, Mixes and buses. - A test hook gives e2e the auto-gain at a drive. Tests: - Unit saturation (new) 5, soundfx 51 (2 new), sound-library 101 (1 new), green. - Counter-checks, each turns tests red: no hold-back of the dry way (1), the level without auto-gain (2). - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 79 checks (1 new). Chrome offline: 192 samples late at 48 and at 44.1 kHz. Half dry at 1125 Hz 0.00 dB. A sine at -12 dBFS driven 24 dB into Soft comes out at 0.00 dB with full auto-gain. - The gate runs once on the last commit of this series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Tame the loudness with a Compressor and a Limiter node (#326)
A sound FX could not control dynamics. A Compressor squeezes the loudness together, and a Limiter keeps every peak below a line. Both work on a voice and on a bus, where they tame everything at once. - Compressor: DynamicsCompressorNode with Threshold, Ratio, Knee, Attack and Release, then Makeup and Auto-gain from 0 to 1. After the node the sound gets (1 - w) * makeup + w * A dB. A is what the curve takes off at 0 dBFS. - The node adds 0.6 of A by itself, as the spec says. That gain is taken back out, so 0 really means no makeup. - The knee shape is left to the browser by the spec. dynamics.ts ports Chromium's curve. It gives the gain Chrome was measured to add at four settings to three places. - Limiter: a class on the FX worklet with Threshold, Ceiling, Release and Auto-gain. It looks 5 ms ahead: the smallest gain of the window ahead, averaged over the window, then a release. No sample passes the lower of threshold and ceiling. Auto-gain raises it toward the ceiling. - Deviation from the plan in the issue: the Limiter has a Threshold as well. Without it Auto-gain has nothing to measure against. - Latency is made up on voices now too. A voice starts as much earlier as its stages are late (Compressor 6 ms, Limiter 5 ms). The other way of a Mix and the other layers of a note are held back to the latest, and a bus counts it into its latency. - A voice with a Limiter counts as ringing, so the worklet is stopped only after what it still holds is out. Tests: - Unit dynamics (new) 8, soundfx 49 (3 new), sound-library 100 (4 new), green. - Counter-checks, each turns tests red: no look-ahead in the Limiter (3), no taking back of the node's gain (1), a voice not started earlier (1), no stage latency on a bus (1), no hold-back in a Mix (1). - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 78 checks (1 new). Chrome offline: Compressor 288 samples late, Limiter 240. Full scale through -12 dB 4:1 hard knee: +0.19 dB with full auto-gain, -8.81 dB without. A sine at 2 through the Limiter at -6 dB peaks at -6.00 dB, with auto-gain 1 at -1.00 dB. - The gate runs once on the last commit of this series.

Move a sound left or right with a Pan node (#319)
A sound FX had no way to place a sound in the stereo field. The new Pan node does that on a voice, a bus and a track alike. - One input, Pan from -1 (left) to 1 (right), 0 by default. Behind it is a StereoPannerNode. A typed-in 0 leaves the node out, a pan fed from a parameter stays at any value. - It moves with Set sound FX parameters, and an Envelope can move it in an instrument. - As the issue decided, no pan from the position in Play sound and no width control for stereo sounds. Finding: the issue and the plan said a stereo sound gets a balance. Web Audio pans stereo differently: the side it goes to stays and the other side moves over into it. The node description and the wiki say so, the e2e check measures it. Tests: - Unit soundfx 46 (1 new), sound-library 97 (1 new), green. - Counter-check: a pan from a parameter at 0 left out, 1 test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 77 checks (1 new). Chrome offline, a mono sine at 0.5 gives 0.5 / 0 at -1 and 0.354 / 0.354 at 0. A stereo one at 0.5 panned 0.5 gives 0.354 / 0.854. - The gate runs once on the last commit of this series.

Shape a sound with every filter type, a Q and a slope (#318)
The Filter node from #335 only knew low-pass, high-pass and band-pass and had a Resonance from 0 to 1. It now has every type Web Audio offers, a Q as a plain factor and a slope up to 48 dB per octave. - Types: low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, notch, low shelf, high shelf, peaking and all-pass. The cutoff row is now labelled Frequency, its key stays `cutoff`. - Q from 0.1 to 30, 0.707 by default, replaces Resonance. Web Audio takes the Q of a low- or high-pass in dB, so it is converted when the voice is wired. No project used the node. - Gain in dB is an input only for the shelves and the peak. It is a derived port, so the sound FX compiler now resolves derived ports. - Slope 12, 24 or 48 dB/oct runs 1, 2 or 4 filters in a row. They share one cutoff carried by a ConstantSource, only the last has the Q. Shelves, peak and all-pass hide the row. - The Chip Presets get the Q their resonance gave before. Mutate moves Q in octaves and gain by up to a dB. - bindStage in the instrument compiler binds every amount of a stage generically, so new stages need no case of their own there. Finding: FLAT_Q was in dB and the delay damping used it. It is a factor now, the damping takes it through passQ and is unchanged. Tests: - Unit envelope 13, sound-library 96 (2 new), chip-presets 14, soundfx 45, all green. - Counter-checks: the Q on every filter in a row, the gain row for every type. Each turns one test red. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 76 checks (1 new). Chrome offline, 2 kHz through a low-pass at 1 kHz: -12.37 dB at 12 dB/oct, -49.5 dB at 48. A +6 dB peak gives 6.00 dB, a notch -124 dB. - The gate runs once on the last commit of this series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Send a track, a pattern item or a whole song through a sound FX (#346)
A sound FX could only be put on a single sound. Now a track, a pattern item, a Play pattern and a Play song send everything they play through one chain of it, as an insert in a DAW. A Play note gets one of its own. - Track: an FX box in the head next to M and S opens a menu of the project's sound FX, and the track's inspector has the row too. Order: items, track FX, volume, pan. - Pattern item: Sound FX in its inspector. Its notes play on a bus of their own into the track's bus. - Play pattern and Play song take fx and fx params. The chain sits on the master of the playing, after the tracks and before the level and the fades. Set sound FX parameters reaches it by the playback. - Play note takes fx and fx params next to the instrument's params. The FX parameters go by "fx:" so the two sets stay apart. Set sound FX parameters on a note changes a name both have in both. - A Pitch on a bus is a new PitchShifter: the phase vocoder of the PitchPlayer, fed while it plays. It cannot look ahead and is exactly one frame late at every pitch, 2048 samples. - That latency is made up. The other way of a Mix is held back by a delay of the same length. Every note and clip starts as much earlier as the buses it passes are late. The scheduler plans that much further ahead, and the first note waits that much after Play. - The Song tab waits for the chains before it plays and lets its buses go a moment after Stop. A playing in a game lets them go after its echoes and what the shifters still hold. - songBuses moved to its own file. Kept in song.ts it pulled the FX compiler into the node registry through an import cycle. Decisions of the user: one chain for the whole (1a), FX everywhere asked for (2a), Set sound FX parameters on playbacks (3a), and a pitch shifter of its own with exact latency compensation for a Pitch on a bus. Tests: - Unit pitch-shifter (new): 11 green. At 0 semitones the output is the input 2048 samples later, off by at most 1.2e-7. - Unit sound-library: 84 green, 8 new. Counter-checks (no early start, no Mix delay, chain made every time, tune misses the master) each turned their test red. - Unit bus-fx (new): 6 green, 4 counter-checks red. Scheduler ahead: 1 new, its counter-check red. - e2e 65 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 35 checks, 4 new, first run. Chrome at 44.1 kHz: the bus was 0.046440 s late, the note started exactly that much early. Offline the shifter moved 1 kHz to 2000 Hz and passed a click 2048 samples later. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 259 files, 4021 tests.

Swirl and comb a sound with a Phaser and a Flanger node (#341)
sfxr's "phaser" is a comb filter, the sound plus a copy delayed by up to 2.9 ms. That is a flanger, not the phaser a guitarist knows. Both effects come in as nodes of their own, so each name fits its sound and sfxr is covered in full. Both run on the FX worklet like the Bitcrusher, because a feedback loop in Web Audio costs a render quantum per round. - Phaser: first-order allpasses (Stages 2, 4, 6, 8, 12) around Frequency, moved by a sine LFO Depth octaves wide at Rate Hz, with Feedback and Mix. An Envelope can move Frequency and Mix. - Flanger: a delay line of Offset ms. Sweep moves it on in ms/s from the start of the voice, an LFO adds up to Depth ms. As in sfxr the delay is mirrored at 0, and it never goes past 20 ms. Feedback comes back exactly one delay later. An Envelope can move Offset and Mix. - Mix 0 leaves the sound as it is, 1 is half sound and half copy. The notches are deepest there and the peaks stay at the sound's level. sfxr adds both at full, so its sound comes out 6 dB louder. - The Flanger's processor gets the start of its voice and begins the sweep on that sample. stageNodes takes it as a new argument `at`. - Explosion gets a Flanger in one draw out of two, with sfxr's offset and sweep and no LFO. Offset is offset^2 * 2.89 ms, Sweep is ramp^2 * 125 ms/s, signed so the direction holds. - Randomize draws a Flanger's offset and sweep like sfxr. Its LFO and feedback and all of a Phaser are drawn within bounds of their own. Mix and Stages stay, as a Bitcrusher's Mix does. Mutate moves them too, and a 0 stays 0. - New instrument preset Phased Pad: saw, Envelope, low-pass, Phaser of six stages. The other 14 are unchanged. - The Bitcrusher's worklet setup is now shared with both nodes (workletNodes), its behaviour is unchanged. Tests: - Unit phaser (new): 8 green. Counter-check with clamping at 0 instead of mirroring and a flipped allpass coefficient: 3 red. - Unit soundfx, sound-library, chip-presets: 45 / 76 / 14 green. Counter-checks: start time not passed on, phaser frequency eased linearly, sweep sign dropped, Phaser left out of Mutate, each red. - Unit core, viewport, graph: 179 files, 2979 tests green. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 70 checks (1 new), first run. Chrome offline: 1 kHz notch RMS 0.0000 with two stages, 0.5657 with four. Flanger echo after 48 samples, swept echo at 533/534. About 47 Phasers (12 stages) or 63 Flangers fill the audio thread. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 257 files, 3991 tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Make an 8-bit sound with a Preset, Randomize or Mutate (#329)
A Chip could play a sound, but finding a good one meant typing a dozen numbers. sfxr's buttons do that in one click: a kind of sound drawn anew every time, a wild draw, or a small nudge. The Instrument tab now has the same, and plays the result at once. - Preset menu with Pickup, Laser, Explosion, Powerup, Hit, Jump and Blip. It puts a new graph in place of the instrument's, as one undo step: Notes for all 128 notes, Chip, Envelope, Filter, Bitcrusher, Output. The Chip keeps its own frequency with follow note off, so every key plays the same effect, and sustain 0 ends it by itself. - The presets are sfxr's generators, worked out into Hz, semitones and seconds with sfxr's own formulas, in chipPresets.ts. sfxr's envelope holds and falls in a line, ours falls quick at first. So the decay is three times sfxr's hold and fall. - Randomize draws every number of the Chips, Envelopes, Filters and Bitcrushers anew, as sfxr's randomizer does. Waves, filter types, the Bitcrusher's mix and an Envelope's from and to stay. - Mutate moves each of those numbers a little, one in two. A 0 stays 0, so nothing that was off comes on. - An input fed by an edge is left alone by both. Both are grey while the graph has none of those nodes. - Audition, off by default as in the Pattern tab, plays the note last played again 150 ms after a change to the graph rests. - Preset, Randomize and Mutate always play that note, for up to 2 s. - ReplaceGraphCommand swaps nodes and edges and keeps groups and notes. - The info on the right of the header kept 220 px and was cut off with the four new buttons. 140 px still fit "No sound picked". Not done: punch, filter sweeps and the phaser of sfxr (#341). Tests: - Unit chip-presets (new) 7. Counter-check: a wrong Hz formula and fed inputs not left alone turn 3 of them red. Unit tests of the instrument tab, graph commands and sound FX nodes: 49 files, 851 green. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 64 checks (4 new): Preset, Randomize and Mutate, Audition, three undos back to the Sample. - Screenshot with a Laser preset: the header fits at 1280 px, the chain is fitted, the Chip is a saw with its duty grey. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 256 files, 3969 tests.

Make 8-bit sounds without a file with a Chip node in instruments (#329)
An instrument could only play sound files so far. The Chip makes the sound of a note itself, the way old game consoles and sfxr did: a raw wave and what its frequency does over the note. A laser, a jump or a pickup is now an instrument and ends by itself. - Chip node with wave (square, triangle, saw, sine, noise and the periodic noise of the NES), follow note, frequency, duty, duty sweep, slide, delta slide, min frequency, vibrato, arpeggio and repeat. It counts in Hz, semitones and seconds, not sfxr's 0 to 1. - It runs as a third processor in the FX worklet. The math is a plain class, ChipPlayer, tested in Node. Every sample is worked out 8 times and averaged, as sfxr does. - Frequency and duty are AudioParams, so an Envelope can move them and a parameter can tune them while the note plays. A Pitch behind a Chip moves its frequency directly, without the phase vocoder. - Below its min frequency a Chip ends and tells the page. Without the worklet it is silent and its note ends at once. - An Envelope with sustain 0 now ends its note once the decay is over, for every source under it, Samples too. Before, a note with duration 0 ran on silently until a Stop sound. - A note made of Chips alone needs no file. playNote and the wait for the bytes no longer drop it for having none. - Inputs that do nothing as things stand are grey in the inspector. idleParams is told which inputs are connected, so a connected one always counts. The credit names sfxr (Tomas Pettersson, MIT) and jsfxr, which turned out to be public domain, not MIT as the plan in #329 said. Tests: - Unit chip (new) 12, sound-library +4. All of tests/core, tests/viewport, tests/editor/graph and tests/editor/inspector: 178 files, 2953 green. - Counter-checks: semitones read as /24 turn 4 chip tests red. Without the sustain rule and the file check 4 library tests fail. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 60 checks (2 new). Offline in Chrome a square at 220 Hz plus 12 semitones and duty 0.25 gave 329 periods in 0.75 s, up 0.249. 64 noise voices for 2 s rendered in 2.0 s, about 63 at once. Live a 0.2 s note with sustain 0 was gone after 0.26 s. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 255 files, 3962 tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Crush a sound to fewer bits and a lower rate with a Bitcrusher (#322)
A new effect for sound FX and instruments makes a sound rough like an
old console. It rounds the sound to fewer steps and holds it at a lower
sample rate, and all three of its numbers move while the sound plays.
- Bitcrusher node with bits (1 to 16, not only whole), rate (100 Hz to
48 kHz, sample-and-hold) and mix. A mix typed in at 0 leaves it out.
- It runs on the audio thread as a second processor next to the pitch
player. The module is now fxWorklet.ts and the test hook is called
fxWorkletUrl.
- A play that needs the worklet waits for it, for a Pitch or a
Bitcrusher alike. Without the worklet the sound goes through as is.
- Bits and mix move in what they hold, the rate in octaves. An
Envelope can move all three in an instrument.
- A stage that runs on the worklet is stopped with its voice, like the
drivers of an Envelope or a Mix.
- The math is a plain class, Crusher, so it is tested in Node.

Lay patterns and sounds out on tracks and play them as a song #334
Patterns could only be heard one at a time, in their own tab or from a behavior. A song lays patterns and sounds out on tracks along one time axis and plays them through the scheduler of #332, the third piece of the music tools of #330. - New asset type song under the heading Songs, with four empty tracks, 120 BPM in 4/4 and a grid of a bar. Tempo, meter and grid are rows in the inspector. Tracks, items and the loop are the asset's data, held to their rules on load and in every command. - A track has a name, volume, pan, mute and solo. Each is heard on a bus of its own, so a change reaches what is sounding at once. - A pattern item repeats its pattern for as long as it is, with a transpose and another instrument if wanted. A sound item plays its sound as a clip at its own speed, round and round, through a sound FX if wanted. Both have a volume on top of their track's. - Cut back at the left end or split, an item starts as far into what it plays as the cut is: ticks into a pattern, seconds into a sound. - The tab shows the heads with M, S, volume and pan, the ruler of the Pattern tab and the items, a pattern with its notes, a sound with its waveform, a missing asset red. Patterns and sounds are dragged in from the Assets panel. Body, right and left end move, lengthen and cut back, Alt leaves the grid. Ctrl+C/V/D/A, Ctrl+E splits where playing starts, Delete, arrows. A double-click opens a pattern item in its tab. - What is picked is a new selection of its own, so the inspector shows the item or the track, with a button to delete it. - The scheduler plans clips beside notes. Where the playhead starts or jumps back inside a clip, it is taken up that far into its sound. A clip fades out at the end of its item or of the loop. - The editor plays one piece at a time: a pattern started stops the song and the other way round. - The rules are pure functions in core/music/song, editor/song/ songView and songEdit.

Shape notes with an Envelope and move numbers with its curve #335
Without an envelope a note set in hard and broke off 10 ms after its end. An instrument now has an Envelope node with attack, decay, sustain and release. On the way of the sound it is the volume. Its output "value" moves a number of the note with the same curve, from "From" to "To", for a filter sweep among others. A new Filter node gives that sweep something to move. - Envelope (instrument only): attack a straight line, decay and release ease out and are 60 dB of the way at their time. A release takes 10 ms at least. Defaults 0.005 / 0.1 / 1 / 0.1. - The end of a note goes to the Envelope instead of the 10 ms fade. A Gate or Loop Sample under it plays on through the release, "Loop, then release" leaves its loop too, and the voice ends with the release. A One-shot under an Envelope of its own plays through. - A note ending before attack and decay releases from the level it has reached. Chrome holds it with cancelAndHoldAtTime, Firefox gets the level worked out from the shape. - New port type "envelope" (coral). It fits only a number input that says it can follow one (PortDef.followsEnvelope): Filter cutoff and resonance, Pitch, Gain, the EQ bands and Mix. Not the Delay, not the Envelope's own numbers. portsMeet() decides it for ConnectCommand, the drag and the drawn edges. - On the audio thread every Envelope of a note is one ConstantSourceNode. A number it moves gets the curve through a WaveShaper, in equal ratios for a cutoff and a gain. A number an Envelope moves is no longer reached by a parameter. - Filter (sound FX and instrument): low-, high- or band-pass, cutoff in Hz, resonance 0 to 1 as a Q. A low- or high-pass is flat at 0 and rises 20 dB at 1, a band-pass goes from Q 0.7 to 20. - Stop sound with "let ring" lets a note with an Envelope fall away in its release. Without it, and with Stop in the tab, it is cut. - The same note again during a release is a voice of its own. - The Envelope's numbers are set when the note starts. They can come from velocity or a parameter, later changes do not bend the note. Tests: - envelope.test.ts (new, 12): curve, ratios, Filter Q, compiling an Envelope, its value into each number, a Delay refused - sound-library +7: attack and decay on the clock, release from the level reached, One-shot held, Stop sound with and without let ring, a cutoff and a pitch moved by the curve - e2e 34: ALL PASSED, 50 checks (+2). Offline in Chrome the curve rendered 0.5 / 1 / 0.5005 at 0.05 / 0.1 / 0.3 s, released at 0.5 s it was 0.0158 at 0.65 s and 0.0005 at 0.8 s, released mid-attack it fell from 0.5 to 0.05 in 0.1 s. A Gain moved 0.25 to 1 was 0.5 halfway. A looped note of 0.2 s with a release of 1 s was gone after 1.32 s. - Five counter-checks (release end, One-shot hold, the follows check, ratios, pitch sum) failed 3, 1, 1, 2 and 2 tests. - Gate on melektaus-atx: CHECK EXIT 0, 245 files, 3812 tests Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Play notes in time on the audio clock with a scheduler #332
Patterns and songs (#333, #334) have to play sample-accurate in time,
whatever the frame rate does. What is counted in game time runs away
from the sound. This lays the ground: musical time, a scheduler that
plans notes ahead on the audio clock, and a player that starts and ends
a note at a given second. Nothing in the editor plays a sequence yet,
the check scripts drive it through `__gm.music`.
- Ticks, 480 to the quarter as in MIDI files (decided in #332).
Triplets and quintuplets land on whole ticks. Any meter, a beat being
the note value under the line. The tempo always counts quarters.
- `core/music/sequence.ts` is a pure rule: the notes starting in a
window of playing time. Across the end of a loop it looks into the
next round, so the seam has no gap. A note past the loop end ends
there. Windows are whole ticks, and the seam is stepped exactly, so
no rounding can drop the first note of a round.
- `core/music/Scheduler.ts` plans the next 100 ms every 25 ms through a
host, so it is tested with a clock of its own. The first note sounds
50 ms after the start. Changes to the sequence are heard from the
next window on. Stop and seek fade what it started. A new tempo or
loop counts from what is planned, and the playhead keeps its old
pace until the clock gets there.
- The position is the audio clock less `outputLatency`, as bar, beat
and tick.
- The beat comes from a Web Worker (`viewport/musicTimer.ts`), which
keeps its pace in a hidden tab.
- The sound library starts a note at `timing.at`: a buffer source by
`start(when)`, the pitch worklet by counting down inside the render
block it falls in. A note's end is set on the clock at once, its
fade to the sample. Leaving a loop still waits for the page.
- Delay synced to beats (decided in #332, noted from #327): a setting
`Sync` (Seconds / Beats), `time` then in quarter notes, held to the
2 s of the line. Play sound and Play note have an input `tempo`,
120 BPM where nothing is connected. A scheduled note carries the
tempo of its sequence.
- Swing is left for #333/#334, as decided.

Let a looped sample play out past its loop when the note ends #331
With "Mode" and "Loop" as two fields, One-shot plus Loop ran until Stop was pressed: letting go of the key did nothing. The two fields are now one, "Play", with four entries that each say what happens while the note is held and when it is let go. - Gate and One-shot play the sound once, as before. Loop repeats it and fades out with the note. - "Loop, then release" is new: the sampler's sustain loop. Let go, it finishes the round it is in and plays what comes after "Loop end" to the end of the sound. - A buffer source stops looping and plays on by itself. The pitch worklet gets a "leave" message. The phase vocoder then lets the round finish that its newest frame has read into, so nothing read already changes under the frames still sounding. - Samples saved with "Mode" and "Loop" are turned into "Play" on load. Gate and One-shot stay, either with Loop becomes Loop, since playing until stopped is gone. - The keys of the Instrument tab stay half lit while a note let go is still heard. Esc on the keys stops everything, like Stop. - Striking a ringing key again plays a new note beside it rather than stopping the old one, so a drum can be hit quickly. This differs from what was proposed in the issue discussion. Tests: - instrument + pitch-player + sound-library + node-catalog: 477 tests, green (12 new). - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 45 checks (+1). Let go after a loop of 0.05 s, the note played out for 0.31 s on the audio clock, the key half lit meanwhile. - Counter-check: a release that does not leave the loop fails the 2 new player tests.

Play sounds as notes of an instrument asset #331
A sound could only be played as it was, one at a time. An instrument
is a node graph that makes a note a sound: Notes nodes bring the note
in, Samples play sound assets for it, the effects of a sound FX shape
it and the Output sums the layers. Its tab plays it from a keyboard,
a behavior with Play note. It is what patterns and songs (#330) will
play.
- New asset type instrument, under the heading Music, not placeable.
A new one starts as Notes into a Sample into the Output.
- Notes are counted as MIDI does: 60 is C4, names like C#4, sharps
only, the lowest C-1. Notes has From and To, outputs any, note,
frequency and velocity, and with Single notes a trigger per note,
each with an optional name for a drum kit.
- New port type trigger, only into the trigger of a source. Inputs
can take any number of edges now (PortDef.many): a trigger, and
the Output, which plays everything into it side by side.
- Sample plays a sound asset. Follow note shifts it by note - root
through the pitch worklet of #317, so it keeps its length. Gate
fades it out at the end of the note, One-shot plays through. Loop
runs between Loop start and Loop end, also in the worklet.
- Parameters declares the instrument's own parameters with a
default. Sound FX sends the sound through a sound FX asset, its
parameters as inputs, the sound set in where its Input was.
- compileInstrument walks the graph once per note. A trigger is on
only for the notes it stands for, a silent source silences what it
alone feeds, a Mix with a silent side is the other side. velocity
and the parameters stay open for the voice. Builds are cached per
note until the graph or a sound or FX it names changes.
- The player takes a note as one voice of several layers, each way
with its own file and volume. release fades the gated ways out,
one-shots play on. playNote can release after a duration.
- Play note plays one note with velocity, volume, duration and
detached, and hands out voice for Set sound FX parameters and
Stop sound. Velocity is always loudness. Instrument parameters
picks values for the instrument's parameters like Sound FX
parameters does for an FX, renames follow.
- The tab has the graph, a header field per parameter, Stop, and
128 keys below. Keys without sound are grey. A key plays while it
is held. Focused, the computer keyboard plays as in a tracker by
KeyboardEvent.code, the arrows move the octave.
Findings:
- A label of the keys set fill on the shared small text style and
darkened every small label of the editor. Caught in a screenshot
before the commit, the keys have a style of their own now.

Let echoes ring on with a Delay node in sound FX #324 #327
A voice used to end the moment its sources did, and Stop sound cut it dead. An echo has to outlive its sound, and a stop must not click. - Delay node: a delay line with a damped feedback loop, added at mix next to the untouched sound. Time 0.01 to 2 s, feedback up to 0.95, damping 20 kHz to 500 Hz evenly in octaves, all fed by parameters and moved by Set sound FX parameters like any other number. - Ping-pong is a setting of the node. It takes the sound into the left of the line and swaps the sides every round. - A voice with an echo rings on for its tail: until the last echo is 60 dB below the sound, from time, feedback and mix (fxTailOf). It stays reachable meanwhile, and a change counts the tail again. - The end of a tail is timed on the audio clock with a silent ConstantSourceNode, so a paused run holds it. Then the voice is disconnected, since an echo is a loop of nodes. - Stop sound fades a voice out in 10 ms instead of cutting it. Let ring fades only its sources and keeps the voice for its echoes. Where the context is suspended it cuts at once. - Stop sound takes a voice. Connected, it stops only that play, and a 0 from a Play sound that played nothing stops nothing. - Play sound hands out tail: length plus the echoes at its start values. - Destroying a behavior and ending a run still cut, echoes included. - No limit on voices. The emit of a sound FX node now also gets the node's settings. Finding: in Chrome every round of a feedback loop comes one render quantum late (128 samples, 2.7 ms at 48 kHz), measured as 0, 128, 256, 384 for the first four echoes. Left so, since a browser without it would then hear the echoes early. Written in the wiki. Tests: - sound-library, soundfx, node-catalog, sounds, keep-on-scene-load: 489 tests green. New: fade on stop, cut while suspended, echo and ping-pong wiring, ringing until the tail, tail counted again, let ring, stop by voice, echo knobs, delay compile, tail sums. - Counter-checks: no tail, a stop without fade, a connected voice 0 read as unconnected. Each fails its tests, files back by cmp. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED, 37 checks. A blip through a ping-pong Delay (0.3 s, 0.5, 0.5) rang 2.97 s, 2.95 s worked out. Let ring kept the voice, a stop after it cut it. Rendered offline with the player's own stageNodes the echoes are 0.25 left, 0.125 right, 0.063 left. 64 stereo voices of it took about 0.3 s for 2 s, so about 400 play at once. - Gate (melektaus-atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 242 test files, 3713 tests.

Keep the length of a sound whatever its pitch does #317
A Pitch used to keep the length only for the pitch a voice started at. Set sound FX parameters changed it by speed, so a sweep made the sound longer or shorter, and length into time no longer spanned the sound. Now a way with a Pitch is played by an AudioWorklet, a phase vocoder whose pitch is an AudioParam in semitones. The length never changes, and a pitch glides, ramps and eases like a Gain. - PitchPlayer (core/soundfx) is the vocoder as a plain class, so it runs in a unit test. Frames of about 43 ms, four overlapping, a real FFT done as a complex one of half the size. - Peaks are moved with the bins around them (Laroche and Dolson's phase locking), and frames are turned by half their size so a phase is the one at the middle. Without both, a tone beat against itself and dipped to 0.54 of its loudness while the pitch moved. - It reads the sound itself rather than being fed it. It looks ahead as far as a frame reaches, so a voice starts with its first sample and every way of a Mix stays in step. A change of pitch is heard about half a frame (20 ms) late. - At exactly 0 a frame is the sound itself and costs next to nothing. Coming back to 0, the phases are pulled round to the sound's for about half a second before it switches, so the switch does not dip. - pitchWorklet (viewport) is the processor, bundled by Vite through ?worker&url. It is loaded with the first play that has a Pitch, which waits for it like for its bytes. A file's samples are sent with its first voice only and kept in the worklet's scope. - A way has the worklet when its plan has a Pitch, a typed-in 0 excepted (FxChain.shifted). A way without one stays a plain buffer source. Without AudioWorklet a Pitch is not heard, and the console says so. - The pitched copies (WSOLA, pitchShift.ts) and their cache are gone. - Decisions of the user: the player at the source rather than an effect in the chain, a phase vocoder rather than WSOLA, no limit on voices, no range tighter than the node's -64 to +64. - stats() says whether the worklet is there, levels() gives a pitch in semitones, and __gm.sound.pitchWorkletUrl() lets a check run it. Tests: - pitch-player.test.ts (new, replaces pitch-shift.test.ts): 11 tests. Pitches from -30.5 to +12 within 2 %, the length to the sample, 0 exact to 1e-5, a sweep half a frame behind, 8 kHz sounds, loops, ramps there and back without a dip. - sound-library.test.ts: 23 tests (+4), soundfx.test.ts: 31 (+1). - Counter-checks: no worklet in the player, shifted taken from the value, no pull back to 0. 15 tests fail, files restored by cmp. - e2e 34 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 34 checks (+1). In real Chrome the worklet is there and the pitch param glides to 3.0007. Offline: 880.0 Hz for 440 an octave up, 48000 of 48000 samples, a sweep 0 to -12 at 392 then 248 Hz, still 48000 samples. - Gate on melektaus-atx: 242 test files, 3690 tests, CHECK EXIT 0. - Cost: 53 ms per second of a stereo voice at +5 in Node on stein2, 5 ms at 0. In headless Chrome 16 voices for 2 s took 1.3 s, about 24 fill the audio thread. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Change the sound FX parameters of a sound while it plays #315
Until now a value handed to a sound FX counted from the start of the voice only. An engine whose pitch follows the speed, or a loop that gets quieter, could not be built. Every play of Play sound now gives out the number of its voice, and a new node lets the knobs of that one voice glide to new values while it plays. - Play sound has a new output voice: the number of this one play, or 0 where nothing was played. Kept in a Number variable it reaches the voice from another event. Two plays of one sound are two voices. - New action node Set sound FX parameters (exec, voice, fx params). It reaches exactly the voice it is given, a detached one too. A voice that has ended, or voice 0, is not reached. - AudioSink.play returns the voice number and takes the plan and the values (FxVoice) instead of a finished chain. AudioSink.tune takes a voice number and new values. A name the voice's FX does not have is left out, one not given keeps its value. - SoundLibrary hands out the number at once, before the bytes are there, and never twice. A voice still waiting for its bytes starts with the values handed in meanwhile. - Every knob of a voice moves with setTargetAtTime (30 ms time constant). A knob whose value did not change is not sent again, so a tune every frame costs next to nothing. - A pitch on a playing voice glides by playbackRate. A new WSOLA copy in the middle of a sound is not worked out, so the voice gets shorter or longer while it is moved. On a loop that is not heard. - fxChainOf now gives a chain whose shape depends on the plan alone. A stage fed by a parameter stays at 0 dB, and a Mix fed by a parameter keeps both ways. A typed-in 0 or Mix at 0/1 is still left out by the compiler. - Every way of a voice has a source of its own, also at the same pitch, so each can glide on its own. The pitched copy is shared. - The tab keeps the numbers of what it plays, so moving a parameter field is heard at once. - Test hook __gm.sound.levels(file) reads the knobs of every voice of a file, oldest first, and stats() counts the voices tuned. Tests: - soundfx.test.ts: 29 tests (+2 for the node in a running world: the voice of the first of two plays of one sound, and a play that played nothing) - sound-library.test.ts: 15 tests (+3: glide, reach by number, pending voice) - node-catalog.test.ts: 370 tests (+2, Play sound checks its voice) - sounds + keep-on-scene-load: 31 tests, unchanged - Counter-test: a tune that reaches every voice of the same file makes the reach test fail. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED - 30 checks (+1). In Chrome two looping voices of one sound start at depth 7. The one whose number sits in a variable glides to 0.7938 (2^(-4/12) = 0.7937), the other stays at 1. Both gains stay at 0.5012. - The gate ran before voices got a number (CHECK EXIT 0, 241 files, 3658 tests), not after. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Blend two ways of a sound FX with a Mix node #316
A sound FX was a single line from Input to Output, so two versions of one sound could not be heard together. The new Mix node joins two ways again, and each way can carry its own effects, its own Pitch included. - Mix has the audio inputs a and b and a number input mix (0 to 1, default 0.5). At 0 only a is heard, at 1 only b. Like every number it can come from a parameter of the Input and is held to its range. - The compiled plan and the chain a voice gets are now a tree. A source carries a pitch and stages, a mix carries a, b and the stages after it. A Mix that ends at exactly 0 or 1 collapses to the one way heard, so the silent way is never worked out. - A Pitch is still worked out on the sound as it starts (#312). Behind a Mix it goes to both of its sounds. An effect before a Pitch therefore acts as if it came after it, the node now says so. - The player starts one source per pitch, all at once and all of the same length, and two ways at the same pitch share one. A mix becomes two gain nodes with 1 - mix and mix into a sum. A voice leaves the count when all of its sources have ended. - stats().last reports pitches (one per source) instead of pitch. Tests: - soundfx.test.ts: 27 tests (+5), sound-library.test.ts: 12 (+2), node-catalog.test.ts: 368, all green. Typecheck, ESLint, Prettier clean. - Counter-check: a Pitch behind the Mix given to a only, and b mixed at 1 - mix, each fails its new test. - e2e 34 on melektaus-atx: ALL PASSED, 29 checks (+1). The new check plays the pitched way mixed with the dry Input in the browser: two sources at 5 and 0 semitones, as long as the sound itself. - The full gate did not run before this commit.

Pitch a sound FX without changing its length #312 #313 #314
The Pitch node changed the playback speed, so a sound pitched up was also shorter and one pitched down longer. A pitch now keeps the length, takes fractions and reaches further. Gain and the EQ bands reach further down, and the EQ is renamed so a parametric one can come later without a mix-up. - Pitch shifting is the pure function pitchShift in core/soundfx/pitchShift.ts. It reads the sound faster or slower and stretches it back by WSOLA: 40 ms frames under a Hann window, each moved within 12.5 ms to where it continues the frame before it. A looping sound reads on across its end. - SoundLibrary plays a pitched copy of the decoded buffer instead of setting playbackRate. Copies are kept per file, pitch and loop, the last 32 of them. - stats().last tells the duration of what was played, so a check can see that the length is kept. - Pitch: -64 to +64 semitones, scrubbed in steps of 0.1 (#312). - Gain: -120 to +24 dB (#313). - EQ is now labelled "5-Band-EQ", its bands go -60 to +24 dB (#314). The node type stays SoundFxEq, so saved graphs load unchanged. Findings: - A plain granular shifter was tried first and missed the pitch: at +0.5 semitones it measured 438 Hz instead of 452.9 Hz, because every grain restarts at the phase of the original. WSOLA measures 452 Hz. - Far ends: +64 semitones from 440 Hz lands above half the sample rate and folds back, -64 is below what a 40 ms frame can follow. Nobody has listened to either. - Speed: 3 s of a 48 kHz channel take 47 ms at +3 and +64, 171 ms at -64 (measured in Node). Tests: - pitch-shift (new): 7 tests. A 440 Hz sine at +12, -12, +7, +0.5 and -30.5 semitones is within 2 % of the target and keeps its length. Level stays at most 1, a loop does not fade at its seam. - sound-library: 10 tests (+1), soundfx 22, node-catalog 368. - Counter-check: with the pitched copy switched off the new sound-library test fails. - e2e 34 (melektaus-atx): ALL PASSED - 28 checks. Its octave-down voice is now also checked for the length of the sound. - Typecheck, ESLint and Prettier clean. The gate did not run. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Let a game hand values to the parameters of a sound FX #311
A sound FX played the same every time: its numbers were settings of the nodes. Now the Input declares parameters with a default, every number of Gain, Pitch and EQ is an input they can feed, and a Play sound hands in values for them. - Input declares number parameters in the inspector, each with a Default (DeclaredPort.default, SetPortDefaultCommand). They are outputs of the Input. Input and Output count as terminals now, one of each per graph. - Gain, Pitch and EQ take their numbers at inputs under the keys the settings had, so saved graphs sound as before without a migration. Each value is held to its range however it arrives. - The compiler gives an FxPlan with the parameters still open. fxChainOf fills them in when a voice starts. The player still only sees an FxChain. - New behavior node Sound FX parameters: names an FX and picks its parameters like a Variables node picks variables. Each picked one is a number input that starts at the FX's default. Its output has the new port type fxparams, which only fits Play sound's fx params. - Play sound warns when the parameters name another FX than the one it plays. Names the FX does not know are left out. - Renaming a parameter at the Input renames it in every Sound FX parameters node naming that FX, edges and values included. - The Sound FX tab has a number field per parameter in its header. Play uses those values, they are never written into the asset. - A value counts from the start of a voice. Changing a playing voice is #315, a Mix node is #316. Tests: - soundfx.test.ts 22 (+11): parameters in the plan, held values, a 0-by-default stage, EQ band, save with defaults, wrong port types, default command with undo, Sound FX parameters into Play sound, defaults of picked ones, node problems, mismatch, rename with undo - node-catalog 368 (+3): Play sound fx params, Sound FX parameters - e2e 34: ALL PASSED - 28 checks (+2: header field plays depth 5, a Sound FX parameters node gives the game's voice depth 7) - Gate on melektaus-atx: typecheck, lint, prettier clean, 240 test files, 3636 tests green - Counter-check: with fxChainOf ignoring the values and the rename not followed, 5 of the new tests fail. - Browser probe: header fields, inspector Default and the picked parameter looked at in two screenshots.

Play a sound through a graph of gain, pitch and EQ effects #311
A sound could only be played as it was uploaded. A Sound FX asset is
a node graph like a shader: Input, effects, Output. Play sound has a
new input fx that sends the voice through it.
- New asset type soundfx ("Sound FX"), not placeable, with a graph
and its own tab. The heading in the asset panel is "Sound effects",
so it does not take the click meant for the + menu entry.
- Nodes in core/soundfx/nodes.ts, category sound, port type audio
that only fits audio: Input, Output, Gain (dB), Pitch (semitones),
EQ (80 Hz and 12 kHz shelves, peaks at 250 Hz, 1 kHz and 4 kHz).
- compileSoundFx walks back from the Output with the shared graph
emitter. An input takes one edge, so the result is one line: a
pitch and a list of gain and filter stages. A node without input
or a graph without Output reports a problem on the node.
- Pitch is the playback rate of the source. It applies to the whole
sound and also changes its length, the node description says so.
- The BehaviorSystem resolves fx and hands the line to the AudioSink.
An fx that is missing or does not compile plays the sound dry.
- SoundLibrary wires source, stages, volume, destination in that
order. stats().last now also names pitch and stage count.
- The tab header picks one of the project's sounds and plays it
through the graph as it stands. Stop there ends only its own voice.
Tests:
- soundfx.test.ts (new, 11), sound-library (9, +2 for the wiring),
node-catalog (+1 for fx), graph and asset-groups adjusted
- e2e 34: ALL PASSED - 26 checks (+5: + menu opens the tab, palette,
2 effects, tab Play and game Play through the FX at -12 st)
- Gate on melektaus-atx: typecheck, lint, prettier clean, 239 of 240
test files green. The red one was sound-library (its fake
AudioContext had no playbackRate), fixed afterwards, gate not
re-run in full.
- Counter-check: without the audio rule in portsCompatible the port
test fails.
