Typically, such messages should be converted to MIDI control change messages for userspace applications.
It would be possible to have ALSA mixer controls for these, but this would make sense only if these controls are suitable to be displayed in a generic mixer application. I guess this isn't the case for most of them.
Thus, this driver should have a converter with appropriate MIDI map. Currently I have no good idea for the map and it is not implemented yet.
I guess the Windows driver does not makes this information available in any way?
If all the data is device-specific, the actual mapping chosen does not really matter, because the mixer/control application needs to have special code for parsing the data from this particular Linux driver anyway.
