I’ve been trying to use the p5.distortion extension of p5.effect to distort an oscillator. I don’t think it’s working, however. Does anyone have an example of the correct format?

```auto
var sinOsc, distort;
		
function setup() {
	createCanvas(windowWidth, windowHeight);
	background(100);
	distort = new p5.Distortion();

	sinOsc = new p5.Oscillator('sine');
  sinOsc.amp(0);
	sinOsc.disconnect();
  sinOsc.connect(distort);
	sinOsc.start();
	
	distort.set(0.9)
}

function draw() {
	ellipse(mouseX, mouseY, 20, 20);
	sinOsc.freq(mouseX)
}

function touchMoved(){
sinOsc.amp(1)
}

function touchEnded(){
sinOsc.amp(0)
}

```
