Couple of things on the recorder:

1. You should have a .wait call at the end of the do loop function.
Otherwise all the recorder synths will start at once.

2. What is the value of n? If n is 0 or nil, the routine will
terminate without doing anything (the do loop gets skipped). If you
play the routine but see no debugging output, check for this.
