What about receiving midievents? ;-)

I have the following setup: A P133 with the SBLive! and a laptop P1133 where 
the kde-cvs is installed and where i am working with. As I (possibly) want to 
record midi with Brahms i need to get the midisignals (which come from my 
keyboard) from the P133 to my laptop. To play midis the midisignals have to 
go back from the laptop to the P133 which has the wavetable...
I don't know how this is working with aRts. And I currently have the goal to 
write some kind of GUI for this network-communication thing.
