Tract weak spots re-measured (unheard): burst gain no longer leaks past its plosive; 14-clip listening kit #47
2026-11-12
Tract: the plosive burst gain exists only around its own release; weak-spot re-measure and listening kit (unheard)
release_flow was held at the burst gain from the plosive's gesture onward, so later contact states made noise: burst-alone peak 0.0302 in the tail of /bin/, 0.0688 in the leading /n/ of /nibu/. BurstGainAroundGesture ramps it to zero around the gesture. Test PlosiveBurstExistsOnlyAroundItsOwnRelease (before the fix: 0.0675 before the plosive and 0.0215 after it; after: 0.0000 and 0.0000). weak_spots.py re-measures stress level, release, nasals and lax vowels from WordRender renders; WordRender gains --no-burst. Kit tract-weak-spots (14 clips) for aqua-listen. Sources doc: Weak spots re-measured 2026-11-12. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
