Hey Matt,

One thing to note: In qjackctl, you'll notice that the PCR has three
entries, PCR MIDI, PCR1 and PCR2. IIRC, one of the MIDI devices sends
keyboard MIDI data, while the other sends controller (knob, slider)
data. It's in the manual, I can't recall which is which, but at least
you'll be on the lookout for it. :)
