# Manner pass (pitch bias, contour widening, intensity, chipper/scrappy)

- 8 personalities re-rendered on medium-clear-demo-1
- ab-scrappy-jolly: the pair that failed the blind test, separated
  (overlap disjoint + pitch + intensity)
- quiet-timid-sage: the new intensity axis (timid now genuinely soft)
- chipper-old-vs-new: 157 Hz panic-speed vs 201 Hz bright-and-flowing

LISTEN-FOR: chipper vs jolly is the one non-disjoint pair (multi-axis
lean) — flag if they blur. Intensity tops at +1.75 dB (headroom-true);
+3.5 needs a -1.6 dB global bus pad = owner call.
