Can 2 MIDI keyboards play 2 different softsynths simultaneously?

This should be an easy one... but I just can't figure it out.
I want to play 2 different soft synths with 2 different keyboards. I want to play an EVB3 organ with my Axiom Pro 61 on one track and a Steinway piano with my Yamaha Midi controller on a different track. They are both connected via their USB ports to the Mac, and everything works fine when played individually (except that it doesn't seem to matter what midi channels I pick on either Logic inspector or my keyboard MIDI channel out).
I set the Steinway in Logic and my Yamaha on MIDI channel 2, and the EVB3 is on MIDI channel 1. When I play the Yamaha with both tracks record-enabled, I hear BOTH the piano and the organ sound (same happens with the Axiom).
Is there anyway to have each keyboard trigger a single sound and play/record both simultaneously?
Thanks!
