+Although the final usage will not be quite like that in fact `recorder.js` will give the full picture, but when recording the resultant equiavalent
+command line script is the following (with `out.flac` replaced with a filename with an iso timestring it it).  This is the command for the 
+scarlett 2i2, but a very similar command is used with a yeti blue microphone.

+At this point in time the web client is a very limited *proof of concept* page, but the server is very much close to working.  The various api calls
+support to concept of a user **take** control of an interface, which in essence locks it from another client doing the same.  This control lasts for 5 minutes unless **renew**ed by the client.  The client can voluntarily **release** control.  A *jwt* is used to provide some very rudementary security to this api.  When taking control, assuming noone else has already done so, an *jwt* is created and returned.  That must be provided on all subsequent commands (including **start** and **stop** recording as well as the *release* and *renew* commands mentioned above).
+
+We also use *sse* to provide a subscription service to clients.  Events are provided to keep the client aware of the state of the server **status** events enumerate the current state **add** and **remove** events are fired when a microphone/interface is *plugged in* or *removed* and **take** and **release** events are fired when a user (including the client itself) *takes* or *release* control through the api.  Again we use a very crude token for the user to provide his subscription just using `Date.now()`, since this is likely to be a private service with mostly one client and occassionally a couple, so the max we assume is an iPad, maybe a phone and or a PC as well all operated bu the same person.
