Yes, you may need to set the DKV controller.  On a Mark II, and probably 
your MX100XG, punch the Func/Edit button and select MIDI Setup, MIDI 
Out, and set MIDI OUT = KBD out.

Connect the DKV's MIDI OUT to the the MIDI IN to the computer with a 
MIDI cable.

In Cakewalk, set the MIDI input port appropriately. Go to the 
Project/Options/MIDI Input and set Echo to Off.  (Or, to prevent an 
annoyimg feedback loop through the DKV, open the MIDI input connection 
to the DKV.  The echos will drive you crazy each time you boot up and 
start a new recording session.  I built a switchbox for my MIDI cables 
between the DKV and computer.)

Click the Cakewalk's record button and record.

A suggestion: For those late night quiet hours, you might like to read 
Scott Garrigus' helpful book, "Calkwalk Power!".
