Controlling Excel via Midi controller

I've got one of these
_{(source: netdna-cdn.com)}

and wanted to use the sliders on it to control Excel, just like one of the Excel form control scroll bars.

I've managed to modify this code for VBA, but it is extremely unstable. Can anyone help me stabilize it? I think the function MidiIn_Event may crash if it doesn't return fast enough, but I may be wrong.

Thanks in advance.

Public Const CALLBACK_FUNCTION = &H30000
Public Declare Function midiInOpen Lib "winmm.dll" 
        (lphMidiIn As Long, 
        ByVal uDeviceID As Long, ByVal dwCallback As Any, 
        ByVal dwInstance As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function midiInClose Lib "winmm.dll" 
        (ByVal hMidiIn As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function midiInStart Lib "winmm.dll" 
        (ByVal hMidiIn As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function midiInStop Lib "winmm.dll" 
        (ByVal hMidiIn As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function midiInReset Lib "winmm.dll" 
        (ByVal hMidiIn As Long) As Long
Private ri As Long

Public Sub StartMidiFunction()
    Dim lngInputIndex As Long
    lngInputIndex=0
    Call midiInOpen(ri, lngInputIndex, AddressOf MidiIn_Event, 
            0, CALLBACK_FUNCTION)
    Call midiInStart(ri)
End Function

Public Sub EndMidiRecieve()
    Call midiInReset(ri)
    Call midiInStop(ri)
    Call midiInClose(ri)
End Sub

Public Function MidiIn_Event(ByVal MidiInHandle As Long, 
        ByVal Message As Long, ByVal Instance As Long, 
        ByVal dw1 As Long, ByVal dw2 As Long) As Long

    'dw1 contains the midi code
