Initial commit of a toy analogue audio generator

Key components:
- no_std core so it can be used bare metal on embedded systems
- default implementation for RPi 2350, with midi input and I2s output using PIO
- Visualiser for the web to play with on a dev system

+# Sound — Analogue Synthesiser
+
+A modular analogue synthesiser written in Rust.
+
+- **`synth-core`** — `no_std` DSP library (oscillators, filters, envelopes, LFO, MIDI). Runs on microcontrollers and WASM.
+- **`synth-visualiser`** — browser-based visualiser (oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, patch bay) compiled to WebAssembly.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+```sh
+# Rust toolchain (stable)
+curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
+
+# WASM target
+rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
+
+# wasm-pack (builds and packages the WASM module)
+cargo install wasm-pack
+```
+
+## Build
+
+### synth-core (native — tests and development)
+
+```sh
+cargo build -p synth-core
+cargo test  -p synth-core
+```
+
+### synth-core (WASM — verify it cross-compiles)
+
+```sh
+cargo build -p synth-core --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
+```
+
+### synth-visualiser (browser)
+
+Run from the workspace root:
+
+```sh
+wasm-pack build crates/synth-visualiser --target web --out-dir ../../www/pkg
+```
+
+This generates `www/pkg/` containing the compiled `.wasm` binary and the JS glue module.
+
+## Run
+
+Serve the `www/` directory with any static HTTP server. A browser is required (the Web Audio API is not available over `file://`).
+
+```sh
+# Python (no install needed)
+python3 -m http.server --directory www 8080
+
+# Or with npx serve
+npx serve www
+```
+
+Then open [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080).
+
+## Microcontroller deployment
+
+`synth-core` targets bare-metal Cortex-M out of the box. Add the relevant target and uncomment the linker flags in [`.cargo/config.toml`](.cargo/config.toml).
+
+```sh
+# Example: Daisy Seed / STM32H750 (Cortex-M7)
+rustup target add thumbv7em-none-eabihf
+cargo build -p synth-core --target thumbv7em-none-eabihf
+```
+
+A microcontroller runner crate (I²S output, UART MIDI) can be added as a new workspace member when needed.
