Questions about Midi Controllers

A couple of questions:
1) Is there a way to use more than one USB Midi controller? I'm hoping to use the Korg NanoPad and NanoKontrol. They only have USB though, not MIDI, so I can't stack them. Does anyone know a way to do that with software?
2) I'd like to configure the XY pad on the Nanopad to control movers, any idea how to do this?

I actually dont now if freestyler can take input for two MIDI controller at the same time? But I would like to know

I believe you can control the movement of a selected fixture if the Nanopad sends out two Midi notes (one for X and one for Y) for the XY pad. Assign the X midi note to Pan and the Y midi note to tilt in freestyler. if it dont, i dont think you can do it unless you use a second software (
MIDIOX) to manipulate the midi data

Alright, I've figured out how to get HALF of the XY Pad working. I can get the pan working, but not tilt. I can't seem to figure out what note/page to put in for the modulation wheel setting that the pad gives off. Anyone know? It's preset to X = Pitch Bend (note 1/page 1), Y = Modulation Wheel.
Also, thanks for the tip with MidiOx, it works great, and lets me use both controllers!
