# Bass calibration — wrong-position takes (precision / false-accept test) The first calibration round measured **recall** (do we detect correctly-played notes?). This round measures **precision** — specifically, do we correctly *reject* notes played in the **wrong position**? Testers reported ~65% "hits" while playing 2 frets off, where the honest answer is ~0%. Record these **three** passes of the **same etude** in `score.md`, all locked to the **same `click.wav`**, clean DI (before any amp sim/NAM/pedals), 16-bit PCM WAV, 48 kHz preferred: | File | How to play it | Expected score | |-----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------|----------------| | `bass_correct.wav` | Exactly as written (the right frets) | **high** (recall) | | `bass_2up.wav` | Every note **+2 frets** (whole step **up**), same rhythm | **~0%** (reject) | | `bass_2down.wav` | Every note **−2 frets** (whole step **down**), same rhythm | **~0%** (reject) | Notes: - Keep the **rhythm/timing identical** to the click — only the fretting hand moves +2 / −2. (On a 4-string, −2 from the open low E isn't playable; just hold/skip those few open-E notes in the `bass_2down` take — the rest is what matters.) - A "correct" take here is the precision baseline (high recall); the two wrong-position takes are the false-accept test (should score near zero). - Same recording rules as `score.md` (DI only, play to the click in headphones, let notes ring, 4-string stop after Section D / 5-string continue to E). ## What it's for The detector is tuned to chase the result of `cs_bench` on all three: ```bash ./build/cs_bench bass_correct.wav calibration/chart.txt bass # want HIGH recall ./build/cs_bench bass_2up.wav calibration/chart.txt bass # want ~0% (reject) ./build/cs_bench bass_2down.wav calibration/chart.txt bass # want ~0% (reject) ``` The goal is to keep the recall we gained while driving the wrong-position "recall" toward zero — i.e. a real pitch-discrimination gate, not just a looser SNR. (The original torture etude only ever played *correct* notes, which is the blind spot that let the false-accepts ship.)
