        This opcode is designed to be used only with orchestras that have
        nchnls_i=4. Doing so with orchestras with nchnls_i &gt; 4 will
        cause incorrect audio input.

    <title>Performance</title>
    <para>
      Reads quad audio data from an external device or stream. If the command-line <link linkend="FlagsMinusLowerI"><citetitle>-i</citetitle></link> flag is set, sound is read continuously from the audio input stream (e.g. <emphasis>stdin</emphasis> or a soundfile) into an internal buffer. Any number of these opcodes can read freely from this buffer.
