The built-in plugins had no subharmonic synthesizer. Subharmonic
(`subharmonic`, Harmonic category, also offline as AudioSuite) adds the
octave below a lower and an upper band of the input. The Range picks the
two band frequencies (120-180, 80-120, 60-90 or 40-60 Hz). Each band
band-passes the input at its frequency and multiplies it by a flip-flop
that changes sign on every rising zero crossing, which moves the band an
octave down at a level that follows the band. A direct band adds the
input's own bass.
Each band has a gain from -120 to +24 dB and a solo; a solo also mutes
the dry signal. Drive raises the summed bands into one of six saturation
characters, and HP and LP filters (5 to 1000 Hz, Q 0.1 to 5) shape the
result. Below 50 % Mix the dry signal stays at full level, above 50 % the
wet signal does, and Wet Solo mutes the dry signal. Input and Output run
from -18 to +18 dB.
The Total row in docs/plugin-parity.md now counts 25 processors and 3
instruments, the entries in the built-in registry, and its Instruments
row lists `sampler` and no longer lists the Sampler as missing.
Plugins that offer no floating editor (most CLAP plugins on Windows) now
get a host window of SoundCraft's: the GUI is created embedded, parented
to a top-level HWND owned by the app window, sized from get_size, resized
on request_resize (applied by the editor's idle on the main thread, then
set_size), and torn down when the user closes the window. Floating
editors work as before; other platforms still report embedded editors
as unsupported.

* Progress docs to the craftrules standard; full re-measure against Pro Tools 2026.4.1
Stage: alpha. Menu breadth 482/512 (94.1%, measured), feature breadth ~70%,
ready for real work ~40%; ~350-570 agent-hours to beta, ~950-1,450 to full parity,
calibrated on this repo's PR history.
- ROADMAP.md rewritten: stage banner, two numbers, dimension/feature/language tables
- docs/target-app-parity.md: authoritative assessment (area table moved from ROADMAP)
- docs/gaps.md: 22 ranked gaps with evidence and estimates
- docs/roadmap.md: milestones, current focus, beta plan
- docs/ui-, file-format-, hardware-, plugin-, localization-parity.md: new checklists
- docs/parity.md -> docs/parity-checklist.md (generated by cargo xtask parity)
- architecture.md: video, vst3-host, au-host crates; device I/O limits

* Stage: pre-alpha under the core-workflow gate
Add the alpha gate to docs/roadmap.md: interface recording at a chosen buffer
size, MIDI recording, and session interchange with Pro Tools fail, so the stage
moves from alpha to pre-alpha (~5 points and ~110-180 agent-hours to alpha).
Mark the alpha blockers in docs/gaps.md; update ROADMAP.md, target-app-parity.md
and README.

* Add mainstream-practitioner and essentials-user readiness numbers
Mainstream practitioner ~36% (weekly-area depth 50.6% x 0.90 interaction x 0.92
stability x 0.85 file exchange) and essentials user ~57% (core-feature depth
72.4% x 0.90 launch/stability x 0.90 discoverability x 0.97 files), with written
weights, discounts and GitHub user evidence. Full ready-for-real-work checked
against its written dimension weights (40.6%); unchanged at ~40%, stage unchanged.

* Readiness by audience: hours to ~95% for full, mainstream and essentials
Full ~40% / 950-1,450 h, mainstream ~36% / 380-600 h, essentials ~57% / 110-200 h,
calibrated on this repo's PR history. The full number is already an additive
weighted sum over the written dimension table; method unchanged.
