Thanks for the PR but I'm not sure we want to do this, if the metadata isn't there it indicates problem with the source file and these changes would hide that. Also do you have an example of this happening in the real world? I think I'd like to see a failing test case on real data before proceeding down this route. |

This PR improves robustness in RPWSpectrogram by replacing direct dictionary access (
meta["instrument"]) withmeta.get("instrument").This prevents potential KeyError exceptions when the "instrument" key is missing, making the code more resilient to incomplete metadata.
This was small change but still i think prevention is better than cure so i pushed the pr
The behavior remains unchanged when the key is present.
