Ralph -

As for choosing a MIDI channel to avoid interferance w/ instruments,
I'd say the simplest way would be to allow the net to operate on ANY
channel (or even break the net into zones using channels), but encode
all network communications as SYSEX blocks. The are a lot of SYSEX id's
not yet assigned (confer Intl MIDI Assoc. data). This would serve to
encapsulate the communications in an isolated pseude channel, where
the contents of the SYSEX block is *entirely* up to the network community
to decide upon; the only restriction being that only 7-bit data is
allowed within the block...
