//Examples on how to use STK instrument objects

Mandolin m => dac; //All STK instruments are sound generators that can be patched to the dac
440 => m.freq; //All STK instruments allow you to set the frequency using .freq
 //All STK instruments support .noteOn to start making sound
//For percussive instruments, this triggers a strike of the instrument
//For wind instruments, this triggers a breath into the instrument
//The value sent to noteOn should be between 0 and 1, and corresponds to onset "strength"
1.0 => m.noteOn;
1::second => now;
//Percussive instruments like mandolin will naturally decay, so you don't need to call noteOff

//You do need to call noteOn again if you want sound to keep happening (i.e., keep plucking it)
880 => m.freq;
0.3 => m.noteOn;
3::second => now;

Clarinet c => dac;
220 => c.freq;
1.0 => c.noteOn;
1::second => now;
260 => c.freq; 
3::second => now;
//non-percussive instruments like the clarinet don't require you to keep calling noteOn
//you'll keep blowing/playing with the same intensity until noteOff is called
1.0 => c.noteOff;
3::second => now; //a bit of time after noteOff is called allows for a nice smooth release
