What does "Single Value Increment/Decrement" do? Sounds interesting as well and may save some work.

I tried each of these and peeked at the MIDI stream to see what they do, and also at the output of PD's ctlin to see what might emerge. The "sign magnitude" and "2's complement" ones look pretty promising: they indicate which direction (up/down) and how fast you spin the thing.
Assuming you get -1 and 1 for down and up and any positive number for speed, you can multiply both numbers to get a stream of single numbers. Then you just accumulate these numbers using the standard accumulator idiom:
| [+ ]x[f ] | [0\
(See the counting.pd tutorial that I posted on this list several times for details.)
Now, to turn those numbers into a float between -1 and 0 that I can use for controlling various parameters in PD.
I don't think this makes sense: What should 0 and -1 indicate? The rotary controller doesn't have any left and right borders that could be mapped to be -1 and 0. And I also don't think, mapping -1 to min and 0 to max speed makes sense either.
