not that I know of, but given the fact that you may
control the channels on which it transmits such data,
I simply set the range such that the MD and the
receiving device(s) do not match, either by adjusting
the MD, or the device(s) in question.

I guess I do not understand what you are asking,
based on your last paragraph.

The MD uses 4 MIDI channels total for all parts...
if you set it to, say, 1-4, then you may set other
devices to 5-16 and have no problems.

If this has not answered your question, please
ask again with more detail as to what you wish
to achieve...I am not sure I fully understood you.
