Subject[Cs-dev] Feature Request for 5.03
A special welcome back to Istvan.

Here's a special request for Istvan or any other willing developer.

I'd very much like to be able to disable all MIDI channel-to-instrument
default assignments so that any channel's note information can readily be
handled by a single, always-on instrument via miniin. Coding against all
possible situations with the current massign, especially in the orchestra
header (as is usual), is both cumbersome and tricky.

I see two possibilities:

1) a new commandline flag: e.g.,
-+raw_note_mode=1 (zero being the default)
(any comparable name would be fine with me)

2) an expanded massign:
massign -1, -1
which would mean "all instruments muted" (it could as well be: massign
0, -1)

#2 would have the advantage that you could also have:
massign -1, 7
which would mean "all channels play instrument 7"

Either solution would work for me, and I invite feedback on this suggestion.
As I see it, neither option would break anything.

TIA
