THE CARRIER IS WAITING.

1. Start with PLAY so you can hear every tracker change live.

2. Click cells in ELEMENT 115 to change notes. Add a Backbeat or shape a channel in SFX when you want stranger sounds.

3. Use BROADCAST SEGMENT when the loop is ready. That exact loop is sealed into tonight's song and archived for export.

4. Answer the caller, alter the story, then build the next transmission.

The 1977 Meridian tape contains timbres that do not repeat until cycle 108. The station calls the recovered voices THE SFX ENGINE.

Choose one channel, shape it in the current key and BPM, then bind that channel. LIVE PREVIEW is off by default to prevent audio glitches. Enable it only when you want to audition draft changes against the running pattern.

CASE: survive seven nights and resolve the Meridian Protocol. The story now advances in order; every live line is part of the same investigation.

ELEMENT 115: click tracker cells to cycle notes. Right-click cycles backward. Choose NOTE OCT on the matching channel before placing or changing a note to store an octave for that individual step.

SFX: select and edit one channel at a time, then bind only that channel. ARP, TALKBOX, DELAY, and SPARK are independent modules. Every generated pitch is quantized to the station key, every repeat is calculated from the current BPM, and oscillator drift is timbral rather than pitch detuning. RELEASE remains hard-capped at 125 / 1.25 seconds.

BACKBEATS: new games begin with four mutation tokens. Mutations create special two-bar rhythms. Boss victories award four-bar rhythms. Every boss fight injects the altered carrier into the Night Reel as a tempo-locked chorus; a defeat leaves a non-inventory scar.

CARRIER BATTLES: the entity temporarily seizes ELEMENT 115 with its own procedural boss score. Attack, alter the score, excavate relics, broadcast charged changes, or guard. Your exact working music is restored after victory or defeat.

PATTERN RELIQUARY: EXPORT preserves the original station number block and can also archive the current one-, two-, or four-bar loop as a DAW-ready WAV or re-importable ELEMENT 115 JSON dossier. Every dossier carries its relic name, tempo, key, checksum, instruments, and 4·8·15·16·23·42 signature.

NIGHT REEL: every BROADCAST SEGMENT seals the exact loop, voices, tempo, key, and Backbeat used on-air. END NIGHT opens the night song in broadcast order, including any injected boss choruses with full preview, WAV, JSON, save, and import controls.

BROADCAST: your pattern still changes the county. Low energy reaches water and earth; high energy exposes aerial carriers; dissonance destabilizes; repetition phase-locks the overlap.

CALLS: answer every live line before the next segment. Choices build RESCUE, TRUTH, or CONTACT paths and alter the ending. Losing a battle scars the story and increases the chance of additional encounters; winning steadily lowers future difficulty.

TUNER: interrogate 88.0–118.0 MHz. Certain frequencies unlock evidence and practical aid.

FULLSCREEN: use the toolbar control. The entire station is constrained to one browser viewport; individual consoles scroll only when the screen is unusually small.

HYBRID ARCHIVE: localhost PHP and online PHP both write into the included EXPORTS subdirectories. If PHP is unavailable or a path is not writable, explicit exports automatically fall back to the original browser download. Changed directory settings remain saved in OPTIONS.

NO FINAL TRANSMISSION ARCHIVED.

The finale streams the stored seven-night arrangement through a lightweight rolling sequencer while a editable procedural signal field plays live. Nothing is pre-rendered just to watch the ending. Confirmed video export captures that same continuous performance as a compatibility-focused WebM.

THIS CAN TAKE SOME TIME

The synchronized video is produced in one continuous real-time pass so the stored song and editable procedural signal field remain locked together. A compatibility-focused VP8/Opus WebM is recorded from the exact live performance. Keep this tab open until the download or local-save confirmation appears.

Continue to begin the selected video export, or cancel to return to the completed-song screen without changing anything.
