**Be aware that new DSP nodes need to meet these quality guidelines to be included:**
- Clean Rust code that I can understand and maintain.
- Clean Rust code that I can understand and maintain. You can use `cargo fmt` (rustfmt) to
format the code.
- Does not drag in huge dependency trees. One rationale here is,
that I don't want the sound of a HexoSynth patch to change (significantly) because
some upstream crate decided to change their DSP code. To have optimal
control over this, I would love to have all the DSP code
contained in HexoDSP. Make sure to link the repository the code comes
from though.
from though. If you add dependencies for your DSP node, make sure that it's
characteristics are properly covered by the automated tests. So that problems become
visible in case upstream breaks or changes it's DSP code. If DSP code changes just slightly,
the test cases of course need to be changed accordingly.
- Come with automated smoke tests like all the other nodes, most test
signal min/max/rms over time, as well as the frequency spectrum
where applicable.
