Hi Guillaume, welcome to this mailing list! The customization of the midi input for notes is really quite a pain and not really intuitive... But it has been already a subject on this list, i've also started a (now very outdated) branch at github [1] which holds some commits that are related to this feature. The idea was to extend the currently available midi mapping (see preferences dialog) for midi actions so that it can be also used for triggering instruments in hydrogen. In addition, one could make the midi maps exportable and selectable per-song (in addition to a global mapping).
At the moment i'm not sure if a fixed midi mapping (fixed in the meaning of 'midi in = midi out') might help a lot of people, but we could use it as an optional way (configurable in the preferences dialog) to configure the midi input value of instruments. There might be enough people who use only midi input without the need for midi output.
