Logic Express 8 Midi Files, Am I overloading my MIDI files ? Options

[iDavid]

Hello all, I am using an Akai EWI4000 to control Wallander woodwinds in Logic Express 8. The MIDI files when I try to play them back are missing notes and have some new ones, very frustrating. The AkaiEWI sends 10 cc#'s- is it possible that coreMIDI drivers are being swamped by the amount of info and then can't play it back because they where "corrupted" when I made them? Simple keyboard MIDI files work-it's the wind controller MIDI files that don't function well-any ideas about it before I start turning off expressive capabilities?
I record the Line Out too, and it is very good-if the projects where not dependant on being able to change the Project tuning Pararmeters I could just use audio files. If one of you kind people know about MIDI would you please tell me if I'm right about the amount of data[continuous controllers] messing up the Midi files?

Thanks Houstonmusic for helping! I am recording one woodwind with no other instruments and no effects[compression,etc.]; I am using a PPC G4 1.5Ghz 1GB RAM Mini,through a USB Edirol UA-25-and it has supported much more than this until I got the Wind Controller.

Okay,
you're on the bottom edge of the spec, there, i bet. can you selectively begin to thin the midi CC output from the wind controller? Perhaps do a few tests that gradually increase the density? it's been a while since i used a g4 system, and i recall midi bottlenecks appearing from time to time. the interface is probably fine, if you could arrange a test that switches it out though, i'd do that too. a quick survey of the YouTube videos demoing the EWI4000 show everybody on Intel based machines, for what that's worth.
keep us updated.

and while i'm thinking about it, do you have the most recent rev of the software...
