These two scripts present a single slider to force the midi channel. The point here is that you can then put the slider as a knob on the track control panel to allow you to easily select which midi channel the track outputs to. Then you can send midi all->all and the receiving channel will get midi on that channel (useful for multi-timbral instruments like Ostirus, Kontakt, or Falcon). Or you can send n→m to pick out individual sends.

The second script simply limits the slider to values 1..4, to reduce the granularity of the knob.
