Sean - one question.  In the above page's section,
_Using_"synch",_and_Some_Actual_Music_, I've played
with &double_clap, and notice a difference in output
if I change the line

	$it->n(c9, ff, n38, sn); # sn = a 16th note

to the lines

	$it->n(c9);
	$it->n( ff, n38, sn); # sn = a 16th note

I guess I've missed something - but can't work out what.
The 'channel9' can't expect anything to follow, can it?

perldoc -f midi::simple :-

    ...The order of parameters in calls to n/r/noop is not important except
    insofar as the parameters change the Octave parameter, which may change
    how some relative note specifications are resolved. ...

I'd appreciate some clarification, as my brain is obviously rotting.
(In light of which you may feel clarificatin to be pointless.)

Cheers,
