XMIDI Channel Lock Protect (111)

Discussion

< 64: Channel is eligible for temporary reassignment by AIL_lock_channel or Channel Lock controllers

>= 64: Channel may not be locked (seized for reassignment)

Occasionally it may be desirable to prevent any sequence or application process from interrupting traffic on a given MIDI channel. Depending on its value, the XMIDI Channel Lock Protect controller will either render the physical MIDI channel in which it appears immune to seizure, or allow it to be considered for seizure when a Channel Lock controller message or AIL_lock_channel call is issued.
