that the only practical thing to do is to force all software channel numbering
back to a zero indexed system. i.e. even if you read out hardware channels
3,4,5 and 6, within PAMGUARD, everywhere apart from the Sound acquisition

consequences of doing this are mainly very good. Most users will not notice any
