## nchns_i

nchns_i — Sets the number of channels of audio input.

## Description

These statements are global value assignments, made at the beginning of an orchestra, before any instrument block is defined. Their function is to set certain reserved symbol variables that are required for performance. Once set, these reserved symbols can be used in expressions anywhere in the orchestra.

## Syntax

    nchns_i = iarg

## Initialization

nchns_i = (optional) -- set number of channels of audio input to iarg. (1 = mono, 2 = stereo, 4 = quadraphonic.) The default value is the valus of nchnls.

In addition, any global variable can be initialized by an init-time assignment anywhere before the first instr statement. All of the above assignments are run as instrument 0 (i-pass only) at the start of real performance.
