Great advice about the Presonus FaderPort. I got one and it works great with Vegas Pro. I’m just a home video hobbyist (doing graduation & sports videos for family & friends), so this was my first foray into a ‘real’ control surface, rather than the just the software faders and buttons. Love having a real fader for the audio.

One question, though. How can I map commands in Sony Vegas that aren’t in the Presonus FaderPort Driver host function commands ‘list.’ For instance, I have the VASST Ulitmate Pro S plug-in, and for multicamera projects, rather than use the VASST switch pad, I’d like to use a few of the buttons on the FaderPort. It looks like I can custom map keyboard presses for the “View.VASST UlitmateS Pro 4.Camera Change.Cam1Cut” and the “….Cam2Cut” commands. I’d like to map the FaderPort ‘Punch’ button to do the Cam1Cut, ‘User’ for Cam2Cut, ‘Shift Punch’ for Cam1Dissolve, etc.

Is that doable? I tried adding the ‘Generic Control’ and learning the different buttons, but I didn’t see anywhere where I could type in the above “View.VASST UlitmateS Pro 4.Camera Change.Cam1Cut” command as a host function.
