/*
Script to add synapses to GP model but not add channel clusters. Clusters
are handled separately by the read_clusters.g file. Clusters are added to
the compartments listed in {clusterfname}, while STN synapses are added to the
compartments listed in {STNfilename}. GP$1_defaults has these two set to the same,
so the default is to have clusters at all STN synapse locations. Users can
overwrite either or both file names to change the locations of syns & clusters.
STN synapse amplitudes are scaled according to the values in {STN_scale}
