Volume Pattern Improvements:
- Volume patterns now use pattern length as "bar length" for timing
- Swell pattern: completes one full cycle per pattern length
- Breathing pattern: completes two breath cycles per pattern length
- Build pattern: builds over pattern length, fades over 2x pattern length
- Fade pattern: fades from max to min over pattern length
- Pulse pattern: creates 4 pulses per pattern length
- Alternating pattern: alternates based on pattern step position
- All patterns now scale dynamically with user-selected pattern length
Delay Timing Enhancements:
- Add triplet note divisions: 1/32T, 1/16T, 1/8T, 1/4T, 1/2T
- Triplet calculations: 1/4T = 1/6 beat, 1/8T = 1/12 beat, etc.
- Arrange delay timing buttons in 2-row grid layout for better fit
- Smaller button size (35px) with 9px font for compact display
- Support for more complex rhythmic delay patterns
Technical Implementation:
- Add set_bar_length() method to volume pattern engine
- Pattern length changes automatically update volume engine bar length
- Mathematical timing calculations adjusted for bar-relative patterns
- Triplet note values added to NOTE_SPEEDS dictionary
- Grid layout for delay timing controls with proper spacing
Result: Volume patterns now properly sync to the selected pattern length,
creating musically coherent lighting that matches the arpeggio structure.

Pattern Length Features:
- Add 1-16 pattern length buttons to Pattern Settings quadrant
- Implement user-settable pattern length that truncates/repeats generated patterns
- Default to 8 steps with immediate pattern regeneration on change
Delay/Echo Features:
- Add comprehensive delay/echo controls to Timing Settings
- Toggle ON/OFF with visual feedback and control enabling/disabling
- Configurable delay length (0-8 repeats) with volume fade per repeat
- Independent delay timing (1/32 to 1/1 note values)
- Delay fade slider (10-90%) for volume reduction per echo
- Delay notes scheduled and processed with decreasing volumes
- Delay notes play on same channels as original notes
Visual Display Improvements:
- Fix volume >100 color overflow issue with proper brightness clamping
- Inactive channels now display completely black (volume 0) instead of dim
- Improved volume threshold for visual feedback (only show when volume > 0)
- Better brightness scaling for MIDI volume values 0-127
Technical Implementation:
- Pattern length applied after pattern generation with smart truncation/repetition
- Delay scheduling system with fade calculations and timing precision
- Delay processing integrated into main update loop
- Proper cleanup of delay queue when disabled
- Volume and timing calculations for delayed notes

- Make velocity static while channel volume (CC7) controls brightness
- Set volume once per note-on instead of constant updates to reduce MIDI traffic
- Fix note speed buttons to work with immediate changes (no armed state needed)
- Optimize volume changes to only affect channels with active notes
- Add visual dimming for inactive channels when notes end
- Remove conflicting volume update systems for cleaner implementation
