Hi, I recently found out about SynthMaker. I'm trying to find a good vst that can I can send midi cc from to another vst. Something like CCRider(by ModuLR), but more customicable (there is none). I want to be able to choose which knob/slider should send which midi cc and give each knob/slider a custom name. Maybe something like 20 knobs that I give descriptive custom names and can send different midi cc's. I thought I might do it myself, but maybe it's a bit to much to learn before I can put something like this together myself in SynthMaker? If it's an easy task for a seasoned SynthMaker, maybe someone could make me one...or show me how to put one together in SynthMaker?

That's a fairly easy project.

See THIS for a start on MIDI mapping.

My advise is to start trying to build a VST that does what you want with a single controller and ask questions as you get stuck. Once you have it working with one it's just a matter of duplication/alteration for the remaining controllers.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
