Then it would have to be a MIDI keyboard. Just because it may not have the round MIDI connects on the back doesn't mean it isn't using MIDI, it may only be using MIDI through a USB port. Same thing.

It is possible to overdub Continuous Controllers such as modwheel, pitchbend, volume, expression, in realtime just as in overdubbing notes.

This may be easier to accomplish using RealBand rather than Band in a Box, however, since BB records via the Thru track to either the Melody or Soloist track.

It likely can be done in Band in a Box as well, by paying particular attention to the MIDI channel on which the target track resides and setting the keyboard to send only on that channel, but I'd load the MIDI file into Realband where each channel should come out on its own individual track, readily viewed, easily recorded to.

To "overdub" means to record overtop of an existing track, but telling the program not to erase existing data on that track. That way, anything you do on the keyboard while recording will be added to what's already there, whether it consists of just Continuous Controllers or even adding more notes.

This can also be done with the mouse in PianoRoll view, check out the dropdown slot on the RH side to see the various CC's to select from, you could pick modwheel and then just draw them into the lower pianoroll window with the mouse, right under the notes.
