### moveTo(beats)

Source: https://learn.tunepad.com/docs

Moves the _playhead_ forward or backward in time to an arbitrary position. In TunePad, the playhead marks the current time. For example, after calling `playNote(32, beats = 2)`, the playhead will have advanced by 2 beats. The `beats` parameter specifies the point that the playhead will be placed. For example, a value of 0 would move the playhead to the beginning of a track. A value of 1 would skip the first beat and place the playhead before the start of the second beat.

### playNote(note, beats=1, velocity=90, sustain=0)

Source: https://learn.tunepad.com/docs

Play a note with a pitch value greater than 0. You can also call `playNote` with a list of notes that will be played at the same time. The optional parameter `beats` sets how long the note will last, and the optional `velocity` parameter sets how hard/loud the note sounds. Velocity can be any number between 0 and 127. The optional `sustain` parameter allows a note to ring out longer than the value given by the beats parameter. The value of the parameter is the number of beats the note should sustain in beats.

```APIDOC
