Ah, now I looked for that feature but didn't find it. In Rosegarden
you double-click to zero a fader. I didn't think of right-clicking.
It's in the context sensitive help.
But what I meant about knobs having a more obvious
centre position is
that (a) it's easier to see that one is centred, and (b) it's easier
to see that you're dealing with data that has a concept of a centre.
(Rosegarden of course craps all over this theoretical helpfulness by
using knobs for values that have no centre, as well as using knobs
whose central values are not at the top.)
Yes, it's definitely easier to see the position of a knob (usually).
The parametric sliders in the JAMin HDEQ are a result of my not wanting
to use knobs. I think there are probably other ways to replace them as
well.
