The [csoundapi~] is a Pd external that interacts with the csound program
on your system, so depending on your .csd file it can do whatever csound
can do. It is also possible to use OSC or MIDI to control csound from
another program such as Pd without using [csoundapi~] -- you just need
to run csound with your .csd file first so it will be ready to receive
messages.
