/**
* This program the MIDI percussion channel with a Swing window. It monitors
* keystrokes and mouse motion in the window and uses them to create music.
* Keycodes between 35 and 81, inclusive, generate different percussive sounds.
* See the VK_ constants in java.awt.event.KeyEvent, or just experiment. Mouse
* position controls volume: move the mouse to the right of the window to
* increase the volume.
