Being flattened
When the user saves his/her song, your machine will need to be saved
to disk. Since OCTAL has stored all the patterns of your machine, as
well as kept track of current parameter values, it can save all this
data without your needing to worry about it.
All machines start with one track upon creation. When OCTAL needs to
create a machine with five tracks (because such a machine was saved in the song),
it will simply create a default machine and then call your ox_track(1) four times to add the remaining tracks.
