Yep it's my experience is not good enough for controlling VST, unless you attach the likes of a Launchcontrol XL with a lot of knobs to it.
Discounting the Project/Utility controls and the pitch bend strip, it has the same amount of controls as the Microlab and KeyLab essential, which currently have controller templates.
I don't see any reason to not add it as a controller for at least the 5 main functions of a VST with some shift abilities.
