It looks like you are looking for [osc~]. It expects a frequency and
outputs sine wave with given frequency as audio signal. This signal
sent to [dac~] will actually create an audible sound.

Be also careful not to confuse message boxes and object boxes. [sin~(
is a message box and just sends a message 'sin~' when it receives
something.

Also, [440] simply holds the number '440'. For this object to output
anything at all, you'd have to send a 'bang' message to it. Probably
the simpler approach would be to write '440' into a message box, since
message boxes can clicked and they output their content when clicked.

So, something like this would generate sound:

[440(
|
[osc~]
|
[dac~]

and make sure to click [440( with the mouse, once you patched this.

Alternatively, you could simple do this, since [osc~] takes an
argument:

[osc~ 440]
|
[dac~ ]

NOTE: Be careful with volume, when you connect sound generators to
[dac~] directly.
