Example

/**
  * This sketch demonstrates how to monitor the currently active audio input 
  * of the computer using an AudioInput. What you will actually 
  * be monitoring depends on the current settings of the machine the sketch is running on. 
  * Typically, you will be monitoring the built-in microphone, but if running on a desktop
  * it's feasible that the user may have the actual audio output of the computer 
  * as the active audio input, or something else entirely.
  * <p>
  * Press 'm' to toggle monitoring on and off.
  * <p>
  * When you run your sketch as an applet you will need to sign it in order to get an input.
  * <p>
