New documentation section covering the Nashville number system,
blues scale theory, and tablature export — topics that were
previously scattered across cookbook and fretboard docs.

Three new export methods on Score:
- to_lilypond() — complete LilyPond source files for PDF engraving
- to_musicxml() — MusicXML 4.0 for MuseScore/Sibelius/Finale
- to_tab() — ASCII guitar/bass tablature (also on Part)
All three handle multi-part scores, bass clef detection, tied notes
across barlines, chords, and drum tone filtering.

Five new synth waveforms: tape-replay Mellotron (strings/flute/choir
tapes with wow, flutter, saturation, 8s fadeout), hard sync oscillator,
ring modulation, wavefolding, and analog drift VCO with pitch
instability. 14 new instrument presets for Score.part(). Synth kwargs
now pass through play()/save()/_render(). 808 bass envelope fixed
from pluck to piano.

Two variants modeling Himalayan singing bowl acoustics:
- Strike: mallet hit with chirp from inharmonic partials, long ring
- Ring: rim-rubbed sustained tone with slow build and beating modes

- Wurlitzer: reed-based, nasal, biting — bark on hard hits
- Vibraphone: aluminum bars with motor tremolo (spinning disc)
- Pipe organ: multi-rank (8'+4'+2'), constant air, wind chiff
- Choir: formant-filtered glottal source, vowel control via lyric=,
no vibrato (ensemble handles voice variation)
- All four with instrument presets, audio demos, and docs

CAJON_SLAP is now dry wood crack (no wires). New CAJON_SLAP_SNARE
has the buzzy version for cajóns with snare wires engaged.

Added hand-on-wood transient (lowpassed noise for soft palm feel)
before the box resonance kicks in. Deeper sub, longer air cavity
thump. You hear the hand, then the box.

Click count-off → snare groove with quad sweeps and bass splits →
flams and diddles → buzz roll into big unison hit.

Bass has 180/320Hz box resonance modes. Slap has wood panel
resonance under the wire buzz. Tap has hollow finger-on-plywood.
Everything sounds like hitting a wooden box now.

Teental ends with bayan fill. Keherwa has ge_bend accents throughout
plus a bend-heavy final bar. Chakradar preceded by bayan showcase.

Dagga now booms at 30Hz with sustained sub, wider thump band,
and heavier stick impact. The kind of hit you feel in your chest.

The melodic renderer was choking all signal at each new note,
killing strum/hold resonance. Removed — notes now naturally
overlap and ring out. Banjo lick now uses 16th notes.

Fundamental now decays at 0.6/s instead of 1.5/s — rings long
enough that rapid roll hits stack into a singing 'oooh' resonance.
Upper modes still die fast for the initial thump character.

Clean harmonics with dominant fundamental, gentle upper partials,
and soft finger pluck transient. Much purer, singing tone.

Tine + tonebar + electromagnetic pickup model with bell-like
harmonics, metallic attack transient, and pickup nonlinearity.
electric_piano instrument preset now uses rhodes_synth instead of FM.
FM section updated to show bells. Audio demos for both.

Detects silence below -60dB threshold and trims with 0.2s tail
for natural decay. 69 audio files regenerated.

Basic waveforms now play without envelope shaping so you hear
the raw timbre. Complete Example bass at 1200 instead of 600.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every synth section in the docs now has an audio player.
Classic waveforms, FM, supersaw, and all 31 instrument synths
each play a C major arpeggio for easy comparison.

Both pages now show the same rock beat example in G major with
piano, saw lead, triangle bass. Code and audio are in sync.

The pad envelope has slow attack — wrong for fast acid lines.
Updated both the docs code and the audio generator.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Complete Example now uses rock beat with piano/saw/bass in G major.
Added audio player for the arpeggiator code example.

save_wav was writing mono — now properly writes stereo from
render_score's (n_samples, 2) output. All 31 files regenerated.
