A lot of electrical contacts will corrode slightly over time and have a "wiper" contact inside of them. Simply rotate it back and forth several times until you see it "truly zero." As you have visual indication as well, try rotating Rotary 4 back and forth until the message on it goes away.

Same concept as volume/tone pots on a guitar... whenever they start not having smooth connections/static, cycle the knob full range a few times until it goes away.

That seems to have been the problem. Thanks heaps for that suggestion...it was sending me bonkers...well more bonkers than usual.

Is all good, I am glad you got it fixed. I had a controller years ago that used to "walk" so much that I ended up disabling the rotaries, and finally replaced it.

Yes, despite twisting and turning it, there's still some small movements going and it always associated with this particular rotary...but so far at least, it's not as rad as it was...and it's not like I use these rotaries much at all...usually it's just for the keyboard.

Cheers
