0 will probably respond with constant late messages.

s.sendBundle(0, [\s_new, \default, 1000, 0, 1])
s.sendMsg(\n_free, 1000)

s.sendBundle(nil, [\s_new, \default, 1000, 0, 1])
s.sendMsg(\n_free, 1000)

“Every composer – at all times and in all cases – gives his own  
interpretation of how modern society is structured: whether actively  
or passively, consciously or unconsciously, he makes choices in this  
regard. He may be conservative or he may subject himself to continual  
renewal; or he may strive for a revolutionary, historical or social  
palingenesis." - Luigi Nono
