Hi Iain,

I'm not quite sure I understand what you're asking, but maybe this will 
clarify.  When blue goes to run, all it does really is produce a 
temporary CSD file and runs Csound on it.  Csound runs it's own process 
and functions as it normally would, so if your CSD file has instruments 
that respond to MIDI, then those will work as you've designed them to.  
The new realtime features within blue communicate to Csound via a stdin 
pipe, so that's a separate communications method.  So it's possible to 
create projects in blue that are intended for both midi and blue 
realtime stuff. 

Another way to think of it is Csound as a server that when run is able 
to take in midi or stdin.  Midi stuff is not touched by blue and goes 
directly to csound, while stdin stuff is generated from blue to csound. 

One thing you might want to try is if your sequencer project is a CSD, 
importing that into blue from the file menu (Import CSD File).  You 
should get all of your instruments (if they're number and not named 
instruments) imported into the orchestra manager, and all the other 
stuff pushed into global orch and score.  If you generate that out again 
as a CSD file, you should get roughly the same thing back.  So you could 
use blue to manage your instruments this way.
