- * A mixer is an audio device with one or more lines.  It need not be

- * has multiple input (source) lines and at least one output (target) line.
- * The former are often instances of classes that implement

- * and the latter, <code>{@link TargetDataLine}</code>.  <code>{@link Port}</code>
- * objects, too, are either source lines or target lines.
- * A mixer can accept prerecorded, loopable sound as input, by having
- * some of its source lines be instances of objects that implement the
