synthio: re-striking a note should re-enter attack
.. without changing the current note amplitude

synthio: make sustain level relative to attack level
and re-vamp overall envelope calculation again.

Now, if you set a low overall attack level like 0.2 this avoids the
"diminishing volume" effect when many notes sound at once. You need
simply choose a maximum attack level that is appropriate for the max
number of voices that will actually be played.

synthio: replace the quietest releasing note when over-writing 2023-05-04 07:23:49 -05:00

synthio: slow ramp overall envelope back up
.. and account releasing notes at their sustain level until they're
done.

this ameliorates the effect where multiple releasing notes
don't seem to actually be releasing, but stay at a constant volume.

synthio: Add synthio.Note
This class allows much more expressive sound synthesis:
 * tremolo & vibrato
 * arbitrary frequency
 * different evelope & waveform per note
 * all properties dynamically settable from Python code

synthio: implement envelope
This works for me (tested playing midi to raw files on host computer, as
well as a variant of the nunchuk instrument on pygamer)

it has to re-factor how/when MIDI reading occurs, because reasons.

endorse new test results

.. and allow `-1` to specify a note with no sustain (plucked)

Add synthio.Synthesizer
In contrast to MidiTrack, this can be controlled from Python code,
turning notes on/off as desired.

Not tested on real HW yet, just the acceptance test based on checking
which notes it thinks are held internally.
