Consume values in channel

[jvtrigueros]

The some-external-input channel only has a buffer of 1, so whenever we type one thing on the text box, the handler function would block the UI. Executing the go-loop will consume from the channel indefinitely.

As an aside, the note is being played on the transducer, but perhaps it makes more sense that it gets played in the go-loop block as it feels like a side effect. Such that you're "pushing" notes onto the channel and playing the notes when "pulled".

great insight and thanks for looking into this! I tested it and still doesn't work. In my scenario, I started the seesaw frame within emacs, and display the seesaw frame with the keypress listener. However the keypress event still goes back to emacs. Then I tested again starting the app with lein run, and the keypress event go back to terminal instead of triggering the handler function. I wonder what is the expected way to start a seesaw app.

Granted, I tested it without overtone, on Windows, and IntelliJ so perhaps it worked by coincidence 😅
