What problem does it solve?
This section explains the need for invariant engineering standards to ensure safe, deterministic, and numerically robust audio code across DSP, analysis, and JUCE integration.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Real-Time Safety Rules: Preallocate, avoid heap usage, and minimize blocking on audio threads.
- Determinism: Ensures reproducible processing with stable floating-point operations and no undefined behavior.
- Numeric Hygiene: Manages denormals, DC offset, and proper gain staging to avoid artifacts.
- Performance Mindset: Documented Big-O, memory usage, and cache-friendly design.
- Output Contract & Guardrails: Clear constraints on outputs and failure handling.
- Scope Guardrails: Boundaries to prevent unsafe practices and promote safe integration.
Quick Start
Follow these guidelines when implementing real-time audio processing to guarantee safety, determinism, and numerical hygiene.
