There are others that send relative data: 4 to the left, 12 to the right or so. For example the Pocket Dial supports this increment/decrement mode depending on the setup: http://www.doepfer.de/pd.htm I *heard* that the Behringer is "broken" in this regard in that it just stops to send data when one end is reached (that is, it stays at 0 or 127 without wrapping around at all). I'd be glad to hear if this is true or not, as that would make the rotary encoders useless to me.
