kennethreitz 9f8dd0006d Pitch bends, updated docs, songs with new instruments 
- Pitch bend: part.add("C4", bend=2, bend_type="smooth") bends up
  a whole step. Three types: smooth (log/perceptual), linear, late
  (hold then bend — blues style).
- Updated songs.py: use dedicated instrument synths (piano_synth,
  flute_synth, trumpet_synth, etc.) instead of generic waveforms
- Updated docs: synths.rst (27 waveforms, instrument synths section),
  effects.rst (cabinet sim, analog drift, updated signal chain),
  drums.rst (world percussion: tabla, dhol, dholak, mridangam,
  djembe, metal kit), index.rst (feature counts)

kennethreitz b239e9a997 Add warm closing paragraphs to all 11 guide pages 
Every page now ends on prose instead of a code block.
Chords, tones, scales, effects, drums, CLI, cookbook,
fretboard, playback, systems, theory — each with a
sentence that ties the page together.

kennethreitz 2fc5aae678 Document sidechain compression and song structure sections 
Effects: sidechain pump with parameters, practical examples, tip
about not sidechaining everything.
Sequencing: song sections with verse/chorus/repeat workflow,
custom names, real songwriting analogy.

kennethreitz f9654fcdea Clean up code formatting: black-style, remove >>> from config snippets 
Multi-line part creation uses vertical layout with trailing commas.
Configuration snippets use code-block:: python (clean, no >>>).
Interactive exploration keeps pycon format.
Mixed blocks split into setup + exploration.

kennethreitz 119dd2d921 Add conversational prose throughout all 5 guide pages 
Sequencing: Score concept, time signatures for non-musicians, Parts as
DAW tracks, arpeggiator/legato/glide context with TB-303 and acid history.
Synths: synthesis philosophy, DX7/Juno/JP-8000 history, practical combos.
Effects: real-music context (The Edge, DJ knobs, shower reverb), why signal
chain order matters, automation as breathing, LFO as repeating automation.
Drums: drums-as-genre foundation, genre group cultural context, fills as
transition signals, drum synthesis as real drum machine techniques.
Playback: three output options context, MIDI as the working musician's path.

kennethreitz 80698ccc3a Restructure docs: 5 focused pages + why-compose-in-Python intro 
Break rhythm.rst and playback.rst into:
- sequencing.rst: Score, Parts, Duration, arpeggiator, legato
- synths.rst: 10 waveforms, 8 envelopes, combo recommendations
- effects.rst: signal chain, 5 effects, automation, LFOs
- drums.rst: DrumSound, 58 patterns, 21 fills, synthesis
- playback.rst: simplified output functions only

Rewrite index.rst with "Why compose in Python?" section explaining
the sketch→hear→export→DAW workflow, plus comprehensive highlights.
