One more question.

I'm probably missing something really simple but what do I need to add 
to this simple example to enable midi output as well as fomus?

process examp1 (n, r)
   repeat n
   send( "fms:note", dur: r, pitch: between(48, 73))
   wait r
end

sprout( examp1(16, 1/2), "fomus1.ly")

I've tried various combinations, including using variables such as the 
example below but I can't seem to get it to work.

process examp1 (n, r)
   repeat n
   variable pitch = between(48, 73)
   send("fms:note", dur: r, pitch: between(48, 73))
   send("mp:midi", dur: r, key: pitch)
   wait r
end

sprout( examp1(16, 1/2), "fomus1.ly")

Thanks,
Peter
