4. Create a bf-param object for each control you want to share with the others and insert it into your instrument
5. Create a bf-session object with the name of the session you want to connect to
### Parameters and outputs
**Parameters** correspond to controls you have over your instrument and that you want to share with others.
They can have 1 or more values, and can be of multiple types :
* cont : continuous value between 0 and 1
* midi : discrete value between 0 and 127
* bool : 0/1 value
* bang
**Outputs** have the same properties but correspond to musical content produced by your instruments (notes, onsets, envelopes ...). They can be used to control others parameters.
Three default outputs are automatically created by bf-pd and extracted from the audio you send to bf-instrument : pitch, onsets, loudness.
