this won't send anything.  none of the machines transmit midi data, except, i imagine
the midi machines, but i haven't had cause to use those, yet.

if the MD sent its parameters as CC or NRPNs, that would just punish, but i suppose
you'll have to wait for another OS to facilitate that, if it's possible.

as for sending CCs back to the MD, you're in luck - the MD has a really impressive spec
in that regard.

i use digital performer, but i think the basics can be applied ot any sequencer, be it 
cubase, sonar, logic or whatever.  i would create a custom control console that would
remap the CC data generated by one of my other, knobbier synths, like a waldorf
microwave xkt to the relevant channels and CCs on the machinedrum.  the particulars may
differ, but the concept is the same - just use your sequencer (or midiox for windows, or midipipe,
if you're a mac user) to translate the incoming CC data.
