	<objarglist>
		<objarg name="port" optional="1" type="symbol">
			<digest>
				MIDI port ID
			</digest>
			<description>
				Specifies the port (a-z) for transmitting MIDI note messages. Channel numbers greater than 16 received in the right inlet will be wrapped around to stay within the 1-16 range. If there is no argument, <o>noteout</o> initially transmits out port <m>a</m>, on MIDI channel 1.
			</description>
		</objarg>
		<objarg name="port-channel" optional="0" type="list">
			<digest>
				MIDI port and channel
			</digest>
			<description>
				A letter and number combination (separated by a space) indicates a port and a specific MIDI channel on which to transmit note messages. Channel numbers greater than 16 will be wrapped around to stay within the 1-16 range.
			</description>
		</objarg>
		<objarg name="device" optional="1" type="symbol">
			<digest>
				MIDI output device
			</digest>
			<description>
				The name of a MIDI output device may be used as the first argument to specify the port. The name 'none' can be used to prevent the object from transmitting MIDI messages on any port.
			</description>
		</objarg>
		<objarg name="channel" optional="0" type="int">
			<digest>
				Extended MIDI channel
			</digest>
			<description>
				A number alone can be used in place of a letter and number combination. The exact meaning of the channel number argument depends on the channel offset specified for each port in the MIDI Setup dialog.

				Store velocity value
			</digest>
			<description>
				In middle inlet: The number is stored as the velocity of a note message, to be used with pitch values received in the left inlet. Numbers are limited between 0 and 127. 0 is considered a note-off message, 1-127 are note-on messages.

				Set the MIDI output device
			</digest>
			<description>
				In left inlet: The word <m>port</m>, followed by a letter <m>a-z</m> or the name of a MIDI output port or device, specifies the port used to transmit the MIDI messages. The word <m>port</m> is optional and may be omitted. The name 'none' can be used to prevent the object from transmitting MIDI messages on any port.
