monkey-w1n5t0n b290144670 fix(modular): base_amp floor + opt-in matrix to keep voice audible
Modular sub-engines computed amp_val as a pure function of mod_amp (the
matrix d08_amp destination sum), so once the MLP drove the matrix cells
every joystick movement had a chance to silence the voice: matrix cells
have signed range [-1, 1], sigmoid outputs near 0.5 denormalise to 0,
and the amp gate collapsed. Additive survived in scattered regions
because it only has one kill-switch (d08_amp); subtractive and fm were
almost always dead because they also have d05_cutoff and d01_op1_level.

Two changes:

1. DSP: each sub-engine gets a base_amp hslider (default 1.0) so
   amp_val = clamp(base_amp + mod_amp) * level * vel_gain. At the
   default the voice is always fully open and d08_amp modulation is
   purely additive decoration; drop base_amp to 0 for classic
   ADSR-gated VCA behaviour.

2. ModularEngine._rebuildParamMeta: restore the _exposedMatrixCells
   gate (default empty). paramCount drops from 512 to 32 (4 ADSR * 4
   + 8 LFO * 2); matrix cells are opt-in via setExposeMatrixCell.
   _applyDefaultPatch no longer writes s00_d08_amp since base_amp
   keeps the voice audible without routing.

Tests updated for the new 32-param baseline; matrix-cell persistence
test now calls setExposeMatrixCell(1, 5, true) before asserting the
cell lands in paramMeta. Drive-by: engine-switching test bumped from
3 to 4 engine cards (stale since the modular engine was added).

"""
gen-modular-dsp.py — Emit modular-*.dsp files for the Faust "Modular" mode.
The modulation matrix has 48 sources × 10 destinations and every amount must be
a unique hslider (Faust slider labels are compile-time string literals). Hand-
writing 480+ sliders is impractical, so this script produces a fully expanded
.dsp file with one hslider per (source, destination) cell plus an explicit
48-term weighted-sum expression for each destination.
The generator emits three engines in one run:
modular-subtractive.dsp Minimoog-style 3-osc + moog filter voice
modular-additive.dsp 64-partial additive voice (spectral descriptors)
modular-fm.dsp 4-operator FM voice with full cross-mod matrix
Each engine has its own 48×10 modulation matrix and its own set of sound
parameters. All modulation (envelopes, LFOs) comes from the shared
mod-pool.lib — the engines themselves contain ZERO internal envs/LFOs.
Run:
python3 gen-modular-dsp.py
Re-running this script is reproducible: same inputs produce byte-identical
output. Please DO NOT hand-edit the generated .dsp files — edit this
generator and re-run it instead.
