<title>Initialization</title>
<para>
<emphasis>insnum</emphasis> -- instrument number. Equivalent to p1 in a score <link linkend="i"><citetitle>i statement</citetitle></link>. <emphasis>insnum</emphasis> must be a number greater than the number of the calling instrument.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis><quote>insname</quote></emphasis> -- A string (in double-quotes) representing a named instrument.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>iwhen</emphasis> -- start time of the new event. Equivalent to p2 in a score <link linkend="i"><citetitle>i statement</citetitle></link>. <emphasis>iwhen</emphasis> must be nonnegative. If <emphasis>iwhen</emphasis> is zero, <emphasis>insum</emphasis> must be greater than or equal to the p1 of the current instrument.
</para>
<para>
<emphasis>idur</emphasis> -- duration of event. Equivalent to p3 in a score <link linkend="i"><citetitle>i statement</citetitle></link>.

<title>Performance</title>
<para>
<emphasis>schedule</emphasis> adds a new score event. The arguments, including options, are the same as in a score. The <emphasis>iwhen</emphasis> time (p2) is measured from the time of this event.
</para>
<para>
If the duration is zero or negative the new event is of MIDI type, and inherits the release sub-event from the scheduling instruction.
</para>
<note>
<para> Note that the <emphasis>schedule</emphasis> opcode can't accept string p-fields. If you need to pass strings when instantiating an instrument, use the <link linkend="scoreline"><citetitle>scoreline</citetitle></link> or <link linkend="scoreline_i"><citetitle>scoreline_i</citetitle></link> opcode.</para>
