"taste": [
"Patch scripts should be terse but lower into explicit, inspectable graph data.",
"Compiler abstractions should remove repeated musical structure, not hide DSP behavior.",
"Generated Faust should be boring enough to diff and debug.",
"Realtime-facing work must assume allocation, locks, file I/O, console I/O, and OS calls are hostile."

"dx7_reference_path": {
"status": "DX7 SysEx parser extracts voice edit buffers, packed voices, packed 32-voice banks, six operators, envelopes, algorithm, feedback, oscillator sync, LFO, transpose, voice name, checksum validation, ReferencePatch features, algorithm topology from the reverse-engineered OPS algorithm ROM table, two Aquarium DSL rebuild attempts, and first-class OperatorGraph support.",
"lesson": "Algorithm 32's additive six-carrier shape maps cleanly to six Aquarium voices. Algorithm 8 justified OperatorGraph: operators, modulation edges, carriers, and feedback belong to a graph authority, not Voice fields. Readable authoring uses operator/route/carrier declarations; compact ops/edges tuples are scaffolding only.",
"next": "Refine operator graph parameter binding and envelope internals; exact DX7 feedback-register timing remains separate pressure."

"runtime_parameters": {
"rule": "Patch parameters are runtime controls, not compile-time constants.",
"faust_surface": "Faust UI controls expose parameter zones that hosts can update with setParamValue/getParamValue-style APIs.",
"aquarium_requirement": "Aquarium DSL patches declare stable exposed parameters with path/default/min/max/step metadata so callers can vary sound without recompiling.",
"binding_rule": "Parameter binding uses field-site references such as `lpf=@/macro/brightness`; the field owns meaning and the parameter owns the runtime value. Avoid target-routing semantics unless a new graph authority is deliberately mapped."
