......@@ -83,20 +83,22 @@ Press the farthest right button and you should hear a boop!
What if we wanted to hear a different note besides 72?
======
Click one time on the **message box**. Now you can change that number. Change it to something smaller, like 45.
Now lock the patch (by pressing **control-E** on the keyboard) and press the same button on your kit. You should hear a different note now.

Try unlocking your patch and changing the number again to something different. Lock the patch again and see what the note you chose sounds like.

We can play different notes, but it is pretty inconvenient to have to lock and unlock the patch just to play different notes, and we have all these buttons that we're not even using!
Unlock your patch one more time and click and drag to select the bang, the message, and **pd boop**. Now press **control-C** on the keyboard to copy them. Or you can use the "edit" menu and choose "copy."
Let's see if we can use more of the buttons.

This part can be confusing so make sure to watch the instructor do this step first.

Now we are going to paste these objects into the patch so we can play more notes. Either press **control-V** on the keyboard or use the "edit" menu and choose "paste."

Pd pasted our objects, but they are hidden by the objects we already have. You'll notice that it highlights them in blue. Click on the blue objects and drag them to the left.

Now you should have two bangs, two messages, and two **pd boop**s. Let's control this second **pd boop** with the second to last button on the kit. That button is connected to the second to last outlet of the object at the top of the patch.
