Comments
Pages of the MIDI Specification will be revised to strike the language about forbidding Sound Controllers. This is an inconsistency in the MIDI Specification that was overlooked when the existing Sound Controllers were defined.
Any default assignment specified by this proposal may be changed using Universal Real Time System Exclusive message "Controller Destination Setting". This new message enables selecting the destination for any controller message.
