hi all,
i'm wondering if anyone can help me with some software i am looking for.
i recall some years back, when i was using cakewalk/sonar in the late
90s/early 00s, a facility called studioware which allowed me to
control a hardware synthesiser from within cakewalk. this was driven
by files which one could load, which then represented each of the
functions of a midi-connected hardware synthesiser/sampler/fx unit by
an on-screen button, slider, dial, etc.
I think Ctrlr is exactly what you're after. It's a MIDI control GUI that
lets you design control panels for synths, or load control panels others
have built for them. It runs as either a standalone app or as a VST
plugin, which should theoretically work in Ardour 3.

Unfortunately it only coincidentally has a Linux build -- it uses the
JUCE framework, which supports Linux, but the Ctrlr developers aren't
really familiar enough with Linux to maintain a proper port, so it
doesn't actually seem to work right now.
I feel like all it really needs is one Linux user that has the time and
the ability to maintain it. Hopefully someone here can answer that call!
Thanks
Leigh
