Is there anyway that you can listen what buttons are pressed or what shortcuts are pressed / used. And get the value of the midi slider / joystick?

Thanks, but that video talks about MIDI only and there is no scripting in it.

I've actually came up with a solution - AutoHotkey (Win only).

Here is a function I've found on the internet for sending commands to vMix via the web api. Here it is adjusted for AHK2 + some usage

Code:
URL2Var(URL) { ; This delivers the URL over the web to vMix
	WebRequest := ComObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
	WebRequest.Open("GET", URL)
	WebRequest.Send()
	Return WebRequest.ResponseText()
}

ControllerNumber := 1 ;joystick ID
frameRate := 29.97

Loop
{
	;get x axis and normalize to <-1..1>
	x := Round((GetKeyState(ControllerNumber "JoyX")-50)/50, 10)
			
	;write joystick value into DynamicValue in vMix
	URL2Var("http://127.0.0.1:8088/api/?Function=SetDynamicValue1&Value=" . x)
		
	;perform once per frame	
    Sleep 1000/frameRate
}
