I've the feeling this is a really dumb question. Here goes anyway.

I need to initialize an 8-element table to zeroes. One table will then be 
written with i-time frequency data; others will then receive controller data 
(realtime MIDI).

In other words, I'm using the table as an array. The 8 elements are for 
storing data for 8 instruments that are identical except for these data 
stored in the arrays. The instruments will be numbered 1.1 through 1.8, and 
their fractional parts used for indexing purposes.

The question: what GEN routine do I use?

I assume the basic format would be something like this:

f1 0 8 -?? 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

What goes in place of the question marks?
