I did not replace your code yet: the other version is #ifdef-ed
out at this time. However, as you are already using $ for invalue,
removing any $ from the orchestra specified channel name is needed
because otherwise memory corruption would occur when the host tries
to write a string when in fact the orchestra expects a MYFLT.
I only suggested using the $ for outvalue as well for consistency,
and having the string value after the '\0' character of the channel
name is easier to parse, at least in C/C++, and slightly less
confusing to old hosts that are not aware of string values.
However, I am fine with keeping your original implementation.
