Interface MusicPart
All Superinterfaces: AudioSpec, ExtendedAudioSpec
All Known Implementing Classes: NoteChannelControl, MusicPartControl
public interface MusicPartextends ExtendedAudioSpec
MusicParts extend the capability of audio control objects as they provide
an instrument that will play or render the control information (ie. notes, etc)
of that particular part. The analogy is an instrument in an orchestra that plays a
particular part in a score.
The NoteChannel is responsible for producing the sound.
In its completeness a MusicPart has a sense of it volume, its balance location
in a left-right stereo field and an instrument that is the sound it produces.
