Hi everybody. I’m working on a SSL-style bus compressor and I want to limit the sliders range around 12’o clock with predetermined step sizes (steps are the same distance from each other no matter the amount of steps on the knob) - which will make each knob have a varied range depending on the amount of steps. However, I can’t seem to center it around the middle - it ALWAYS ends up on the left side. Anyone been in the same situation who might have a fix for this? ---

The centre position _should_ be in the middle if the number of values is odd. You can use `setRotaryParameters()` to set the start and end angle for a slider, which might help to put the values in the right place. It’ll be easier to give you better advice with a snippet of code and/or a screenshot of the problem. ---

maybe you are just setting up the parameter incorrectly. when you make stepped parameters you can either let the normalized value relate to floored or rounded upscaled values
