Ah, no quick answer then ;-)

I Ctrl-middle-click to bind the control (a bus fader), which works Ok.
Or at least the "operate midi controller" dialog goes away when I move
the hardware fader. Then when I move the hardware fader, I get this
output (with Trace Input and Trace Output enabled)

bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 6 Value 121
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 99 Value 0
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 98 Value 7
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 6 Value 123
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 99 Value 0
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 98 Value 7
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 6 Value 125
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 99 Value 0
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 98 Value 7
bcf input: Channel 1 Controller 6 Value 127

These seem to be correct for NRPNs according to www.midi.org. I can hunt
down the exact URL if that would be useful.

But the bus fader doesn't move. I suspect it may be because 3 midi
messages are sent by the controller for each event instead of 1?
