Global modulation signals

EventData::ParameterModulation { id, amount } carries a finite signed physical amount separately from saved base values. A new amount replaces the previous signal; the consumer implements combining, clipping, smoothing, reset and persistence. Parameter graph filters include the matching ID; performance filters exclude it. Complete worker queues preserve order and reject non-finite amounts.

CLAP input translation is opt-in through with_global_parameter_modulation(true) on ParameterEvents, EffectBridge, MainBusBridge or MultiBusBridge. Default input continues to ignore modulation. Only global targets map; native amounts must narrow to finite f32, and flush normalizes offsets to zero. Invalid whole input rejects before DSP. Generated output maps global amounts without a MIDI port and preserves host prefix refusal. Exporters must advertise compatible native flags and explicitly implement DSP; no reference processor support or saved-state changes are synthesized. See decision 0122.

ClapParameterOptions::global_modulation (default false) advertises the native modulatable flag for global physical amounts. It does not enable bridge input or implement DSP; exporters explicitly align the registration option with their processor and bridge. Hosted node input/output independently opt in to cached writable/modulatable maps. See the hosting guide and decision 0123.
