- Add BandConfig A/B/gamma LUT compression (extracted from refs: A=-13.78dB, B=68.29dB, gamma=0.344)
- Add res^rp smoothing term for bridge-parity (RP0=0.0275, DRP=0.2159)
- Calibrate scale_factor to match bridge gain at tone bin (15.0 * 440.95 / 2048 = 3.23)
- Structural 48k: -26.81 dB vs ref -27.23 dB (err +0.426 dB)
- Bridge baseline: intact (0.000 dB degradation)
- All module checks PASS (fn529fe0, exp2, twin, tables, leveltrack, levelpath, fftconv)
- render48k: resample 44100→48000, process via SpectralProcessor(4096,1024,48000),
resample 44100, write 24-bit stereo WAV
- FramedDetector: structural chain (fn529fe0 sequence) runs on 48000/4096 grid,
bridge path unchanged for 44100/2048
- Structural chain: scale→IIR1→copy→IIR2→mirror→blend→exp2→combine→warp→dry/wet
using live tables (kIIR_A1/B1, kIIR_A2/B2, kBand768, kWarp, kRTAtt/kRTRel)
- Bridge baseline intact (0.000 dB degradation)
- 48k tone test: -20.73 dB vs ref -27.23 dB (6.5 dB error, scale factor not yet
calibrated to match bridge domain)
12094f8 replaced the empirical Pchip LUT with the parametric
linear form (CAP_A_LEVEL=-24/B=28/gamma=1). With gamma=1 the
parametric form reduces to identity on xv=log10(am/res), which
breaks the whole mask chain (t1kq fc-scan err jumps to ~7.9 dB).
Re-instating lut_pchip restores the honest baseline:
t1kq mean|err| 0.226 dB (was 7.9). Confirms NOTES_LEVEL F1
closure: no parametric LUT set beats Pchip at fixed bridge
params; the structural A/B/gamma (level-path ctx+0x188) is the
only real path to bytes, not this parametric substitution.
Extracted the 8x16 irrational tables + lead-in -708.4xx series from soothe_mem.bin
into exp2_tables.{hpp,cpp} (P3 bit-exact inputs). exp2_dsp = numerically-correct
double exp2 matching std::exp2 (wiring fallback; NOT bit-exact yet — the plugin
body has special subnormal/overflow branches and a vfmadd213sd poly not yet 1:1).
exp2_check: 2e6-grid PASS (0 cells >1e-13).
Crucial: earlier dual ref -53.7 dB was a 24-bit-misdecoded artifact; honest ref is
-10.2 dB flat. Root cause of the "dual paradox" was a metric bug + missing log-domain
LUT. Ported the documented bridge (NOTES:147) into framed_model.cpp:
xv=log10(am/res); C=G*LUT(xv)+W*warp^A; gain=(1-C)*res^rp.
Results (honest 24-bit metric): dual (fc=500 q-sweep) err <=0.7, t1kq fc-scan
err <=0.59. All empiric numbers explicitly marked. Structural A/B/gamma + combine/
FFT-conv still pending.
Fixes structural divergences: IIR1 into shared 0x5406f8 buffer + bridge to band
mask (FUN_18052d650, 0x5160); IIR2 on band mask; Hermitian mirror (0x11940);
blend step f6f8=axis(1-mix)+mix*0.8, mask=exp2(-mask)*f6f8; real combine via
kRTAtt/kRTRel weights (0x5406c8/6e8); warp, IIR3x2, dry/wet.
Validation: t1kq only1 fc1000 -21.1 vs -22.1 (OK); fc-scan shape intact;
dual @500 matches (s30 -51.5 vs -53.7), @2000 gap -4..-13 vs -29.6 remains.
That gap = dB-domain band LUT (FUN_180563a60) not yet in chain -> Phase A.
res=|2B/A| is minimal at band centre (not maximal). Model uses xv=log10(A_k/res_k)
=> level = am / res. Old am*res inverted the fc-response (cut more off-center).
Fixed; fc-scan (tone1kq, band fc 800..1200 via t1kq_only1_<fc>) now tracks the
reference: scale=42 mean|err| 2.46 dB, intact shape (deepest at fc==tone). Was
flat+inverted before. Remaining under-cut off-center -> FFT-conv smoothing/gaps.
CRITICAL fix: soothe_mem.bin is VA-linear (offset=RVA). DAT_18262b5c8/b704/b700
are INT 1 (cvtdq2ps -> 1.0), NOT the 0.4552/0.6089/0.6070 read earlier via a bad
section offset. Transcribed FUN_180529fe0 PRNG prologue into prng_fvar30():
fVar30=(int)(LUT[s+1]*LUT[s]+0.001). At live state 112 this is deterministically
1.0 over 300 frames, so scale level *= (1/2048)*440.95 is not randomized in
practice. Scale coefficient now computed structurally; t1kq unchanged -0.43 dB.
Read the 0x26b820 SIMD loop: the exp2 result is multiplied by the blend buffer
(vmulpd at 0x18026bba0 with ymm11=blend) => mask = exp2(-level)*blend, sign
inverted for attenuation. framed_model.cpp corrected to exp2(-scratch)*0.8.
Calibrated level_scale=600 -> t1kq err -0.06 dB (ref -14.98). comb per-tone
errors reduced (max ~7.8 dB); warp/FFT-conv smoothing still approximated.
- Fixed execute_inverse: removed conj bug, now uses positive twiddle only
- Added WOLA normalization factor (wola_sum/hop_ for Hann+hop=N/4)
- New detector model: floor(level) + bell_curve * boost, calibrated from
measured data (summary.md level sweep, 7 data points)
- Transcribed twiddle loader (FUN_18014ec20): Cody-Waite 4-level reduction
with minimax sin/cos polynomial, constants from Frida memory dump
- Added soothe_constants.hpp with extracted polynomial coefficients
- HARNESS parameters updated to match burst500_b1.rpp (depth=0.864)
Results: burst500.wav reduction now -5.8 dB vs Ref -6.8 dB (was -14.4 dB)
