hey danger, the way i use my tablet is as a midi controller. using a program called midi tab,

that will let you set diferent axis and etc to diferent midi controllers;
and maple midi, that lets you creat 4 'virtual' midi ports in your computer

when you have maple installed, run midi tab, set up the axis and etc, then set the midi out of midi tab to maple midi port 1
then run resolume, and go into the midi options, make suer maple midi port 1 is enabled, on teh same channel that you have your midi tab runing on, then you can use it the same way you use any other midi controller.
one thing i do is set the x axis as the transparency of layer 1, y axis layer 2, and the presure for layer 3, then you can tap the beat and layer 3 will fade in and out in time with the music.
