First commit of the repo. Contents beyond the v0.1 simulator and layout: - Full Pico 2 W firmware (firmware/app, drivers, engine port, host test). - BANK page and 404 mode A/B removed; learned pads play exactly what was learned. - 404/MiniFreak renamed to KIT/SYNTH throughout (jacks, code, sim, docs, layout labels; wiring rebuilt). - ROLL returns to page select after a re-roll; a freshly learned track turns on. - LCD contrast 66. - ROOT and SCALE pages: 21 scales, AUTO = the seed picks; global and sticky. Intended music change: the scale table grew from 8 to 21 and AUTO picks from all of them, so every seed's scale changed. Vectors regenerated with npm run vectors, plus new key-override cases. Flash record is now version 2. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Buttons and knobs
|
||
|
||
| Control | Does |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| **SEED** | A new random seed. The old one goes into the history (last 16). |
|
||
| **RUN** toggle | Start / stop. Stop sends note-offs, All Sound Off (CC 120) on the learned kit channels, and CC 120 and 123 on the synth channel. |
|
||
| **ENERGY** | Density. See [concept](concept.md#energy). |
|
||
| **DRIFT** | How loose and changeable. See [concept](concept.md#drift). |
|
||
| **Track button**, tap | Track on / off. |
|
||
| **Track button**, hold (> 250 ms) | Flips the track only while held: a quick drop-out or punch-in. |
|
||
| **Encoder**, turn | Choose the page. |
|
||
| **Encoder**, push | Edit the page (the value line inverts). Turn to change, push again to leave. |
|
||
|
||
Option (bench setting in the simulator): track changes wait for the next bar line.
|
||
|
||
## Screen
|
||
|
||
The Nokia 5110 has 84 × 48 pixels:
|
||
|
||
- **Top line**: the page name.
|
||
- **Second line**: its value, inverted while you edit it.
|
||
- **Below**: a 4 × 3 map that mirrors the buttons. The top-right cell is RUN: filled while playing.
|
||
- filled = on
|
||
- outline = off
|
||
- flash = hit
|
||
- dot = a kit track not learned yet
|
||
- blinking = a change waiting for the bar line
|
||
|
||
## Pages
|
||
|
||
| Page | Edit with the encoder | Push |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| **SEED** | scroll back through the last 16 seeds (`-1`, `-2` …; `*` = re-rolled) | load the shown seed |
|
||
| **GEN** | EUCLID, SKELETON, SUBDIV, AUTOMATA, AMENIZER | done |
|
||
| **ROOT** | AUTO, C … B. AUTO shows the seed's pick | done |
|
||
| **SCALE** | AUTO, then the 21 scales (see [Concept](concept.md#scales)). AUTO shows the seed's pick | done |
|
||
| **BPM** | tempo | done |
|
||
| **SLOT** | 8 slots for seed + salts + generator (not root or scale) | push = load, long push = save |
|
||
| **ROLL** | KIT or LINE | push re-rolls just that half (a new drum part over the same tune, or the other way round), then goes back to page select |
|
||
| **LEARN** | — | push, press a kit track button, hit the pad on the sampler or drum machine. Push again to cancel. |
