let's say I have a rather common synth, with a lot of knobs and buttons (eg. korg ms 20 mini or arturia minibrute)
Now, I also have a few vsts on my daw(s), also synths, like Serum, Spire and Iris. I love them, especially Iris, but I feel like I'm way too slow when I play with those.
Knobs and buttons are a lot, and the feeling of turning and tweaking them with a mouse is pretty "impersonal", compared to non-virtual synths.
The question is, is there a universal way to midi-map any synth, controller or old keyboard, so that I can assign the functions that i want to the knobs on those?
Because in this way, it would be pretty great to use those useless and dusty buttons of some old keyboard that almost everybody has in their cellar.
I already know that some vsts have a midi assign function, that's why I'm asking for a universal way to do that, bearing in mind that some functions will be impossible to assign.
Also, you may have noticed that I don't know jack about midi-mapping, music production, synths and how to restrain my brain from formulating dumb questions.
