An instrument block is comprised of <span class="emphasis"><em>ordinary statements</em></span> that set values, control the logical flow, or invoke the various signal processing subroutines that lead to audio output. Statements that define an instrument block are:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
<li class="listitem">
<p>
<a class="link" href="instr.html" title="instr">
<em class="citetitle">instr</em>
</a>
</p>
</li>
<li class="listitem">
<p>
<a class="link" href="endin.html" title="endin">
<em class="citetitle">endin</em>
</a>
</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>
An instrument block looks like this:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
<span class="oblock">instr</span> 1 <span class="comment">;A simple sine wave oscillator</span>
aout <span class="opc">oscils</span> 10000, 440, 0
out <span class="opc">aout</span>
<span class="oblock">endin</span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Statements that define a user defined opcode (UDO) block are
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
<li class="listitem">
<p>
<a class="link" href="opcode.html" title="opcode">
<em class="citetitle">opcode</em>
</a>
</p>
</li>
<li class="listitem">
<p>
<a class="link" href="endop.html" title="endop">
<em class="citetitle">endop</em>
</a>
</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>
