 This plays a piano sound for the C note for 1 second:
 
 ```elixir

+iex> piano = MIDIPlayer.Event.note(0, 60, 0, 1000, 127)
 ```
 
 We can change the instrument to a violin after one second like so:
 
 ```elixir
-iex> change = MIDIPlayer.Event.ChangeProgram.new(0, 1000, 41)
+iex> change = MIDIPlayer.Event.change_program(0, 1000, 41)
 ```
 
 (Note that it could be simpler to use another MIDI channel for another instrument.)
@@ -47,22 +47,22 @@ iex> change = MIDIPlayer.Event.ChangeProgram.new(0, 1000, 41)
 Finally, play two notes on the violin at the same time:
 
 ```elixir
-iex> violin1 = MIDIPlayer.Event.Note.new(0, 67, 1000, 3000, 127)
-iex> violin2 = MIDIPlayer.Event.Note.new(0, 64, 1000, 3000, 127)

+iex> violin2 = MIDIPlayer.Event.note(0, 64, 1000, 3000, 127)
 ```
 
 Now we are ready to play these events.
 First start the player like so:
 
 ```elixir
-iex> MIDIPlayer.start_link()
+iex> {:ok, player} = MIDIPlayer.start_link([])
 ```
 
 Then load the events, and play them!
 
 ```elixir
-iex> MIDIPlayer.generate_schedule([piano, change, violin1, violin2], 3000)
-iex> MIDIPlayer.play()
+iex> MIDIPlayer.generate_schedule(player, [piano, change, violin1, violin2], 3000)
+iex> MIDIPlayer.play(player)
 ```
