Restores the April-2026 "uSEQ-Celium" functionality (browser → uSEQ
hardware + CV expander over USB Web Serial) as a first-class Manifold
Outputs backend, and re-vendors the RP2040 firmware into the repo.
- protocol v2 (uSEQ-CV): firmware/useq-celium/shared/protocol.h is the
single source of truth, mirrored by manifold/src/backends/useq-protocol.ts.
26-byte OUTPUT frame, 11×u16 CV (12-bit) + 3-gate bitfield + XOR; fixed
topology; host-agnostic so the MEMLNaut RP2350 can emit identical bytes.
Spec in docs/useq-celium/protocol.md.
- firmware/useq-celium/{main,expander}: PlatformIO RP2040 firmware rewritten
to v2 from the real April pin maps (expander I2C addr 0x10).
- UseqCvBackend (id cvgate): Web Serial connect/identify/disconnect, 100 Hz
stream, per-channel dead-zone, gate thresholding; modeled on midi-backend.
Per-output CvSpec (channel + gateThreshold) on MFParam; config UI in
OutputsBackendConfig + BackendAdvanced; new "CV / uSEQ" top-dock mode.
- bun-test for the protocol frame layout; MAP.md updated.
New SLP-Workshop firmware variant (Synth Library Portland), built on the
MEMLCelium engine + MLP shape. Ports the two post-fork learning-algorithm
changes from upstream memllib InterfaceRL into the shared nisps/ml core,
runtime-configurable (no compile-time switch), inert by default:
- nisps/ml/jolt.hpp: Jolt — held continuous weight morph over the flat
weight buffer + post-release LR ramp (kJolt* constants verbatim).
- nisps/ml/ou_noise.hpp: OUNoise<N> — Ornstein-Uhlenbeck exploration walk
on the output vector (theta=0.02, dt=0.001, kMaxAmplitude=0.65).
Both wired into ModeBase so every mode gains jolt_press/jolt_release/
jolt_lr_scale + set_explore_intensity; gated so existing modes stay
bit-identical (parity + golden tests green). Firmware surfaces them on
TogB1 (Jolt) and RVX1 (explore). New SLPWorkshopMode mode + schema +
codegen; firmware alias + .ino variant; playground mode registration.
Tests: jolt + OU unit tests, ModeBase learning integration incl. an
inert-parity test proving SLP-Workshop == MEMLCelium with features off.
Verified: cpp tests, wasm build, native↔wasm parity, lint, codegen
golden, playground typecheck. Firmware compile/e2e/hardware are
environment-bound (no arduino-cli/submodules/browser here).

Add glue/settings_view.hpp: wire_settings(mode) registers a "Joystick"
SingleSelectView on the MEMLNaut display carousel (TFT + rotary encoder, same
DisplayDriver as SystemView/SelfTest). For the 4-input two-joystick modes,
"Single" pins ML input channels 2,3 (the second joystick) to neutral via
ModeBase::set_input_pinned — the network is never rebuilt and trained state
survives toggling. Default is Dual. Only registered when input arity == 4.
Called from MEMLNaut-NISPS.ino setup() after addSystemInfoView(). MAP.md +
CLAUDE.md glue listings updated.
NOTE: compile-unverified — no arduino-cli/RP2350 toolchain on this host and no
hardware; needs scripts/build-firmware.sh + a flash test (chokepoint A).
Wire the modular input layer into the Console and reshape the browser
engine so input axes are genuine independent dimensions.
Inputs (manifold/src/inputs/):
- gamepad-source: emit press+release edges with standard-mapping labels
(enables hold-and-move); single/double-stick already present.
- midi-input-source: single-device selection + batch "MIDI Learn"
(every CC swept while armed becomes an axis); notes stay discrete.
- input-layer: compose() forwards each axis 1:1 (no mean-blend);
add onReducedInput so the manifold tracks gamepad/MIDI position.
- types: InputAction.phase, InputMode.
Console (manifold/src/console/):
- ConsoleApp: bind gamepad buttons to verdicts (RB up / LB down /
X randomise / Y nudge / B undo / A-hold reposition); mirror composed
position onto the manifold.
- Drawers: rebuilt Inputs drawer (source picker, gamepad legend, MIDI
device picker + batch-learn flow, learned-control meters).
Engine (nisps/wasm, manifold/src/engine):
- DefaultMLP widened MLP<2,..> -> MLP<32,..> (32 = MAX_AXES); each
active axis gets a dedicated slot, unused slots held at 0 (inert).
Rebuilt nisps.wasm (playground + manifold).
- spine/engine-api: setInputs writes the full N-D vector (was dropping
arr[2+]); primary pair keeps the 2-D pipeline; process() re-ticks the
whole vector via spine.reprocess().
Tests:
- parity_check/parity_wasm: ParityMLP -> 32 inputs, widen example bufs.
- CMakeLists: build parity binary with -ffp-contract=off so native
matches FMA-free WASM (training amplified the gap past 1e-5).
Inputs dock is still an exclusive picker; mixing toggles, reshape modal,
and the >2-D slider view (inputs-spec.md) are groundwork-laid but not
yet wired. See docs/redesign/midi-gamepad-inputs-worklog.md.
Joystick -> MLP -> MIDI CC for an external hardware synth, using the
compile-time device templates from nisps/midi/generated. ExternalSynthMIDIMode
<const MidiDevice&, NOut> mirrors SoundAnalysisMIDIMode (NoOpEngine,
kRouteOutputsToEngine=false, pushes ControlChange events). A consteval
pick_cc_slots curates which NOut params fill the output slots (prefers musical
params over Bank Select/global). Adds six flashable variants
(MEMLNautModeExtSynth{Sub37,SubPhatty,Pro12,AnalogKeys,Hydrasynth,JD800}) wired
into mode_select.hpp + the .ino variant list + NISPS_ST guards, and a src/nisps/
midi symlink so the sketch tree can reach nisps/midi.
Host-compile-verified under C++20 (incl. via the sketch include path) and
lint-clean; full arduino-cli build + flash is on the hardware (no toolchain here.
Add a durable, committed source of truth for external MIDI synth control:
- synth-midi-cc.json: verified CC maps + provenance/sources (8 devices researched)
- schemas/midi_device.schema.json + schemas/midi_devices/*.json: 6 CC-controllable
device templates (Moog Sub 37/Sub Phatty, Creamware Pro-12 ASB, Elektron Analog
Keys, ASM Hydrasynth, Roland JD-800), params keyed {id, cc, label, min, max,
default, group}.
- codegen/generate-midi-devices.ts (isolated from the mode golden test) emits both
nisps/midi/generated/midi_devices.hpp (no-heap constexpr, firmware+WASM) and
manifold/src/midi-devices/generated/ (typed catalogue for the browser).
- codegen/seed-midi-devices.ts: reproducible seed from the research artifact.
Lets a performer pick a device and address its parameters by name (not CC number)
on both the firmware and the Manifold browser engine.
Move the Arduino sketch into firmware/MEMLNaut-NISPS/ and bridge the
hardware (memllib) to the platform-agnostic nisps/ library through a
slim glue layer. Delete the legacy root-level *AudioApp.hpp,
modes/MEMLNautMode*.hpp, voicespaces/, IMLInterface.hpp, XiasriAnalysis,
and the src/memlp submodule.
Glue layout (firmware/MEMLNaut-NISPS/glue/):
audio_driver.hpp - bridge memllib block callback to Mode::process
via per-Mode templated trampoline (no virtual dispatch)
peripherals.hpp - joystick/pots/buttons -> Mode::set_input + ML primitives
midi_io.hpp - MIDI in -> mode.note_on/update_bpm/set_playing,
drains mode ControlEvent ring -> MIDI UART
mode_select.hpp - using-aliases mapping MEMLNautMode<Name> to
nisps::modes::*Mode (build script rewrites the
#define MEMLNAUT_MODE_TYPE line)
input_router.hpp / output_router.hpp - top-level wire/drain entry points
The sketch tree uses src/{memllib,daisysp,nisps} symlinks because
Arduino-CLI rejects ".." in include paths from sketch-tree headers.
mode_select.hpp #undefs Arduino's sq/min/max/abs/round macros before
including nisps headers (some nisps engines use those identifiers as
method names). The audio bridge struct is extern in the header and
defined in the .ino because inline + __not_in_flash section attribute
collide at link time.
Verification: arduino-cli compile succeeds for PAFSynth, ChannelStrip,
and BreakOr (rp2040:rp2040:solderparty_rp2350_stamp_xl:opt=Optimize3,
-std=gnu++20). Host C++ tests under nisps/build still pass (3 binaries,
110+ tests). Build script (scripts/build-firmware.sh) updated to point
at the new sketch path; mode-rewrite logic unchanged.
Closes meml-gkm.
