I would suggest that Calf Monosynth is channel agnostic. That is it
ignores the channel information and uses midi events for any channel.
However in this case it only plays midi info for one channel because that
is all the host sends.

If I load The Calf Jack Host with the monosynth, it will respond to any
channel from the keyboard. Calf jack host does no filtering. However if I
run it through qmidiroute with only channel 1 enabled I get no sound
when the keyboard is any channel but 1.
