ar      waveset   ain, krep

The input is read and each complete cycle (two zero-crossings) is
repeated krep times.

There is an internal buffer as the output is clearly slower that the
input.  Some care is taken if the buffer is too short, but there may
be strange effects.

            instr       1
  asig      soundin     "input.wav"

  a2        waveset     asig, p4
            out         a2
            endin

        flashtxt  iwhich, String

A window is created, identified by the iwhich argument, with the text
string displayed.  If the text is replaced by a number then teh window
id deleted.  Note that the text windows are globally numbered so
different instruments can change the text, and teh window survives the
instance of teh instrument.

Example:

instr 1
    flashtext     1, "Instr 1 live"
 ao oscil         4000, 1
    out           ao
endin

instr 2
    flashtext     1, 0
endin
