2025-04-03 (Th) EWC_Soother Octaves → channels

I wrote a function to look at the octave of a played note and change its channel based on which octave it was in. The first octave played on channel 0, the second on channel 1, and the rest followed suit. I programmed some miscalculations based on faulty arithmetic and crossed some wires regarding decimal and hexadecimal, but I rooted them out with a forest of print statements. I tested each octave with the serial monitor and noticed one that behaved differently, but that was because I accidentally left one of the octave shifting settings active. I moved the octave→channel function above the shifting code. Now, each octave can play on a unique channel and start at any range, so I can put unique instruments next to each other and play them at the ideal pitch. I need to do something about changing instruments because my current setup only allows changes on channel 0.
