Unfortunately it's not that simple. Most hardware MIDI controllers will
let you send continuous controller values or toggle between two values.
But to control the stops in Aeolus you basically need to be able to
manipulate individual bits of the controller values...

Some time ago I wrote a small script that might be just what you need.
It uses mididings (http://das.nasophon.de/mididings/) to convert normal
MIDI controllers (one CC for each stop) to Aeolus' CC 98. You'd just
need to insert it between your MIDI controller and Aeolus.

The script is here:
