Patch/Program Change 2 Ctrl/Note

Hello. I'm a very new user of Midi Ox. First I installed to use my notebook's touchpad as a midi controller (using Livelab's touchpad2Midi VST application).
Now I purchased a Boss FC-50 Footcontroller and a ESI Usb midi port intending to use it in Fruityloops to trigger samples and control some knobs and that.
The footcontroller only sends program changes and actually I can see fruityloops receiving the midi data I can't actually use it.
Now I would like to convert that data into something more useful to me - controller data and note on/note off messages.
For what I understand this super program called Midi Ox can do this, or cannot?
Thank You

You currently have a setup something like this:
Boss FC-50 MIDI Out -> Notebook MIDI In (ESI USB) -> Fruityloops
What you want to do is transform the MIDI data between "Notebook MIDI In (ESI USB)" and "Fruityloops":
Boss FC-50 MIDI Out -> Notebook MIDI In (ESI USB) -> (transform data) -> Fruityloops
The "(transform data)" will look like this:
MIDI OX -> MIDI Yoke
This gives a complete signal chain of:
Boss FC-50 MIDI Out -> Notebook MIDI In (ESI USB) -> MIDI OX -> MIDI Yoke -> Fruityloops
Okay, so I added "MIDI OX" and "MIDI Yoke"... You need MIDI Yoke to route the output of MIDI OX to the input of Fruityloops - it's "virtual MIDI cable". You need MIDI OX to do the actual message transformation.
It's probably worth trying to get a simple setup going before trying anything too adventurous -- i.e. just getting the data being passed through MIDI OX and into Fruityloops. Once you've done that, you can try adding data mappings in MIDI OX to transform input messages.
