Summer:

The Summer Agent is used to sum together signals within EigenD. It is normally inserted between the Gain Agent and the Console Mixer Agent in normal use within EigenD.
This agent can both be used to sum wires in the same bundle together, for example when an oscillator sends out different data streams based on polyphony, but also to sum separate bundles together. The latter can be done by differentiating the bundles during the connection to the summer by specifying a 'using' ordinal.
Note, that certain other agents like Audio Unit only use the first signal in an audio bundle, a summer needs to be inserted beforehand to ensure that all audio buffer signals are summed together before being sent to the audio unit.

| audio | input |
The audio input is used to receive audio data from upstream Agents. If the channel count is set to 2, then there are two audio input ports, labelled 'left audio input 1' and 'right audio input 2' (see 'Channel Count' below).

| audio | output |
The audio input is used to send audio data to downstream Agents. If the channel count is set to 2, then there are two audio output ports, labelled 'left audio input 1' and 'right audio output 2' (see 'Channel Count' below).
Channel Count:
The channel count is a value set by the user to determine the number of audio input and output channels that the Summer Agent requires. This depends on whether the Agent upstream produces a mono or stereo output - it is mono by default (therefore one audio input and one audio output).

Before using the Belcanto examples below, please make sure you have the desired Summer in the conversation using
|
 |
|
| summer | X | listen |
where X is the number of the desired Summer Agent.
To set the channel count, use
|
 |
|
|
 |
| channel | count | to | X | set |
where X is the desired channel count.
