I’m just an amateur who likes to edit videos using premiere pro, and searched around for a good controller. Specialized ones were expensive, so bought a second hand midi controller:

Behringer X-touch compact and Bome midi software .

I chose the Behringer as it has a LOT of dials (16) in addition to many buttons and sliders - generally more than the more expensive specialized video editing panels.

The Bome software has a learning curve, though once you know how to do a couple of things (dials and buttons) it’s copy/paste. You can alter every dial, button and slider for any program (I was happy to see that it worked for a music program I was using without having to change anything).

I also use it for lightroom (using the lightroom midi free software).

Here’s my config which is improving:

I can share the config if anyone wants it.

I’m not paid by any of these companies.

    That’s not a bad idea the way you’ve mapped it to video editing controls as well. I assumed this was just for the mixing stage of your video project. Are the faders motorized? I want something like this but specifically for motorized faders, most options are just too expensive for me to make the luxury worth it though.
