This capability exists in my software GrainWave. You can save what I
call a MIDI Snapshot, which is the current controller values for all 16
channels. These can be saved as a file, and then reloaded. I would be
happy to make the file format available if anyone else wnated to support
it. But for now, unless you are using GrainWave, it isn't much help.
You would need to have explicit support for the format within the
program you wanted to use it in. (BTW, if that program is CSound, this
capability would be easy to add).

plenty of programs to record midi data (pro tools
http://www.digidesign.com, digital performer http://www.motu.com...) and
Unisyn is a librarian for digital performer: but as for interfacing with
csound... try contacting the manufacturers -and reposting here in a couple
of weeks (the gurus must be on vacation). don't work with midi features at
all myself. in the meantime maybe one of these non-answers will interest
you:
SoundFisher
inquiries@musclefish.com
www.musclefish.com
reviewed in electronic musician june 1999
Mac/Win $995
soundfile database
features a "sounds-like" search function that can compare waveform
characteristics and find audio files on your network that sound similar to
any file you specify.
handles wav, aiff, sd2, auf files.
create thumb-nails to audition files stored off drive.
three browsers: hierarchical, showing folders and subfolders; a list
browser, sortable by any field; and an unusual multidimensional feature
browser, in which you can ssign various audio attributes (such as average
pitch or amplitude) to the axes of a grid and see which files are mapped
closest together.
batch processing for converting file formats, & adjusting file sample rates.
Never tried it, so don't know what can be expected of the sounds-like
function when faced with wild and wooley csounds.
alternately, and closer to the mark, you could create your csound midi
data, in cecilia and save "snapshots" of a graph
http://www.musique.umontreal.ca/electro/CEC/ or is it
http://www.musique.umontreal.ca/CEC/. runs on several platforms. not yet
windows. for other csound interfacing programs...

hmmm. maybe grainwaves could help: http://www.nmol.com/users/mikeb

On my Linux machine loscil3 generates some sound, but rather quiet,
while loscil does generate something. Identical results on my SGI, so
I conclude I have got something wrong in loscil3. .... just tried on
Windows and I get the same there.
So, the question is why is it OK on the Mac!
(few minutes later) looking at the code I fail to multiply by the
amplitude, so it is entirely my fault. Fix in progress.

Don't know which platform you are using, but have you seen the Windows
util. called MIDI-OX? I think it does what you need.

If you're using Linux, I'm currently working on a utility
to work with ALSA (which CSound on Linux supports). It
is a combination of a midi router (allowing you to send
the output of one app to any other), a configurable
launcher (add your apps to the icon bay and launch them
by dropping the icon onto the routing canvas), a series
of filters/remappers/transposers (as a plugin interface,
and a utility for recording and saving state.
I'm currently in the alpha stages, (I have functional
parts but am still working on the GUI portions), but
if you're interested I can get you early betas.

soundz interesting but how are you going to interface it
with csound code?????
I've helped translate basic code to C code a program that
tracked auditorally a cursor with a joystick... a mouse
auditory tracker would keep me up late @ nite tring to
translate in real time csound source, no
================U write------
while searching for mousing, a program for windows that tries to emulate
a theremin, i ran across this:
http://www.mindmouse.com/
check it out! it uses brainwaves to control your mouse pointer. sounds
like fun, but it costs $2000. anyone here own one?
