Do you have a MIDI interface for your computer?  If so, I'd recommend using
MIDI-OX ( http://www.midiox.com/ ) to sniff them MIDI messages!  If not, 
I'd get
one, even a cheapie, so you can check your input.

MIDI-OX is PC based but there's other similiar Mac utilities to be found 
at (
http://www.harmony-central.com/MIDI/#sof ).  Once you know your input, 
it's a
lot easier to tell what's going on.  GIGO, after all.

Sounds like a great set-up, Italo!  Can you describe it some more?  Maybe a
diagram?
